Analysis: Sure UTEP played hard in loss to Tennessee, but is there going to be more?
Effort has never been a question. At what point does UTEP Miners football start improving is the question.

I mean, Tennessee beat us and jumped 3 spots in both polls. I guess that means we must be pretty good.
Tennessee very good. Too much speed and talent to keep it close. Aggie's up next, lets get that win...
worry about next season, next season.
I am not disappointed nor did I expect a winning season. So, I will be buying my season tickets for next year.
Now, we must show some major improvements to get to a bowl game.
Got to ready to "move on up" to the Mountain West side of town..
Think like a champion, Act like a champion and play like a champion... that's all we ask..

Thank you Michael Scott.
The problem is, there hasn't been any improvement whatsoever when playing the power schools--no matter who has been the HC. It's always we hang for a quarter and then get blown way.
There were some people that actually picked UTEP over Tennessee on the OPT. Are they just trolls then?

Absolutely no improvement in the offense during the course of the season! None! Senter supposedly hired this offensive genius to attract fans with his high-scoring offense that was supposed to light up the scoreboard? This year’s offense is no better than the slop devised by Kugler or Dimel. Utep scoring offense is ranked 127, NMSU 119, UNM 26, UNLV 8.
Utep hired the wrong coach, again. Should have hired the Unlv offensive coordinator.

Give it time. The recruits are coming. Walden is the right guy
So it's OK if a team loses every game, only as long as they: Think like a champion, Act like a champion and play like a champion... that's all we ask.
Not advocating a firing. On paper he can recruit. Let's see how that translates in year 2 and 3. Retention is also key.
Who are the best non-AP recruits he has that will “be back” next year?
Ah that’s right, the cavalry is coming. So freaking excited.
This isn’t Notre Dane. UTEP is who they are. Always has been. Always will be. 🤡Think like a champion, Act like a champion and play like a champion... that's all we ask..
DT Duhon is good freshman he is one of the freshman in CUSA.
We still have to wait for the transfer portal. I think Walden will bring some good transfers
"The kids played extremely hard, I'm proud of them," was how Walden began this obituary."
Ouch.
Ouch.
Kudos on Bloom for being vocally critical of a UTEP program! Could be, as he’s gotten older, he’s become a lot more surly and cares not to entertain mediocrity.
I mean the guy stopped live tweeting the game after the first half because he knows. To an extent AB is critical, but outside of those two we don’t need any more kiss asses to these under performing coaching staffs.

I think more and more people are getting fed up with the same old UTEP bullshit.
Walden is Rodney Terry 2.0. Good recruiter but can’t coach worth a lick.
Correct. Terry had already taken a program of a similar level to us to the NCAA Tournament, the NIT, and won 126 games.
Walden is 3-12 in the FBS. He’s got a long way to go before even being in the conversation as a Terry 2.0.
Are you still an OKG if you put your name in the portal?
Bloom is in and out of the UTEP dog house which he calls it like he see's it, but he is the only one with leverage to cover UTEP athletics, financially, boosters, fans, legally protected access, etc..
I don't want a reporter who hides in the bushes and plays "peekaboo! I see you!" reporting like one TV sports reporter once did with UTEP athletes a few years back. But I sure as hell don't want to see knee pad wearing love fest that some local reports have had for someone like say, NMSU's AD, Moccia who would have probably been fired in any other of the 49 states.
Bloom puts conjecture when alternative source analysis is needed so we as fans can know if the major revenue coaches have UTEP going in right direction. I.e.- call out Senter for being suckered by Dimel AND Snyder. Ask Walden if transplanting a major chunk of UTEP roster with FCS players from AP was a good idea on day 1?! Ask if the #1 recruiting class will be ready in year 2? Ask Senter if Golding struggles in recruiting are the reason for any post season activity when other conferences foes, like NMSU and WKU hires, bring in hi impact players in year 1?
