Coach Terry makes 1st UTEP offer / Basketball Recruiting

I do believe this thread is supposed to be about basketball recruiting. Not about your desire to argue on here which you've doing for several years now....

I need to go research this Nemo kid.....

It's funny because this thread was going fine with the excellent insight UtepMiners8106. We disagreed on some things, but we disagreed respectfully. That's what a message board is all about. If we all agreed this board would be very boring.

I'm sorry you don't know how to debate people and only like when people agree with you.

I hope you find Nemo. LOL
 
It was obvious you were talking to the non-cheerleaders of the board.
Well you two were mad cuz SK, TF, and BS were employed by UTEP. Rightfully so. Now all three are gone and you still ain’t happy. What gives? The slate is wiped clean. Give him a chance before the criticism starts. See how he handles a losing coach. Maybe we don’t even get to that point.

Read my posts again. I am happy that Senter is our AD. I also am happy we have a new football and basketball coach.

I never criticized anybody. Again, read my posts again before you state things that aren't true.

That is all....
 
This is supposed to be a thread on basketball recruiting. If you have news, analysis, or comments on a player we recently recruited, or are currently recruiting, please post it here. Otherwise, please stop derailing this thread. Thanks.

What's up with these TROLLS!!! You who post negative info here are a bunch of TROLLS that should be posting somewhere else. That is the reason we don’t progress here in El Paso and at UTEP. You all are very negative, and our moderator should put a stop to these TROLLS that are out of control. I want to know what is happening here as far as recruiting and how well the coaches are doing trying to get us the best talent. I think this has been happening to long and some of you who post negative info should look at what is happening in your life before you start to criticize other posters. I think it is same people who have a chip on their shoulders or some type of trauma that has happen in their lives, that has made them angry and so pessimistic. You TROLLS are hijacking our boards and you need to leave and spew your hatred somewhere else. You all have each other's email, why dont you just send each other a message that is outside of this board. Moderator please help!!!!!!!

Where's the hatred, anger, and negativity?

Some people have thin skin on here.

You're right. UTEP hasn't won a game in the Big Dance since 1992 and hasn't won a bowl game since 1967 because of people posting on message boards. :rolleyes:

*sigh* anyone remember the trolls that actually made sense and didn’t flame just to flame?

Anyway, can we just collectively tweet the mod and have him clean this up? I swear realm (the senior members know who I’m talking about) was a better troll than these new ones.

You're the same person who said: "I predicted many things and I have been correct in all of my prediction's".

You also aid Tony Dungy was going to be our new coach.

LMAO!!!!

Just wondering- how am I trolling? I was fine talking with other posters because you crybabies came here.

Also, just curious, why did you barely start posting since you say you have been on this board for years?

I don't mind anyone posting but please, don't derail the thread topic. This is for recruiting and player info. If you have an interesting topic on what kind of job Jim Senter is doing so far, start a new thread.

The funny thing is JCorona was the person who derailed this whole thread and posted Senter's tweet and then we all started talking about that.

I’ll bite. Back in 2006 (maybe 07)utep emails for students went from a @utep.edu account to a @miners.utep.edu (based off of Microsoft outlook office) as a part of a deal with Microsoft. Can’t get a new password if my old email account doesn’t exist anymore, and don’t remember it.

Any more questions for his lordship?

So when was the last time you posted since a few weeks ago?

2009 as minerfan05.
2step, Jcorona were on back then. Fronchi haven’t seen here, not minergibbi Since then. Oh, and kyyote made a few visits.

since I don’t need to answer anymore questions to the Stasi I’m putting you back on ignore. Which coincidentally also puts all of shovels posts in ignore.

So you're telling me you went 9 years without posting?

JCorona signed up on June 15, 2014. He didn't post on this board in 2009.

Thanks for putting me on ignore. I am sorry you have such thin skin.
 
I always laugh when people respond to somebody's post and then that person acts immature when they don't have anything to say.

Again, if you didn't understand the first time, Senter didn't say anything specific. I can't help you if you can't read.
Don’t think Senter has a crystal ball. He changing the attitude of Miner Athletes.Changing the loser attitude will go a long way to create winners. From all your post it’s obvious you part of that negative attitude that needs changing.
Be positive and you’ll enjoy life more.

I'm the most positive and most optimistic person out there, but I am also the most realistic person out there.

So you're saying before Senter got here every single athlete had a loser attitude?

I can say all day that great things will happen. Until I have accomplished those things it's all talk.

But, at the same time you have to admit that there is a black cloud that hangs over the football program. We complained every week about how the offense was one dimensional under Kugler. It got so bad that Natalicio and Stull had to release statements a couple of years back. Your HC quits half way through the year and you go 0-12 and your home crowd dwindled as the weeks went on. Regardless of past successes these kids it had to have shalen their confidence to some degree.

While I do understand the point you’re saying, we can’t just sit here and rah rah rah, and expect change on that alone. I hope these kids are working on what they can control and get better every day. But at the same time you can’t be “too real” either. You can’t go “Look, we suck.” There is a trickle down effect here, if your AD and coaches are positive, especially in adversity that’s a heck of a lot better than seeing them blow up and lose their confidence too.

And I will say that we do need to be realistic. Change will not be overnight.

100% agree. It's very hard to be optimistic about UTEP athletics. It's nice that we can start with a clean slate with football and basketball. I don't expect much to happen in the first two seasons. If something does then that's just a bonus. But in year three the honeymoon is over.

As well it should be. But Senter and company will have to cross that bridge when they get there. But, if he can build up the fan base, up donor money, and get this ball rolling then maybe he will have the money in play to fire a coach in a timely fashion as opposed to sticking with him because they cannot afford a buyout.
 
Not saying everyone had that attitude. But these athletes knew how much success they were going to have. It had to be difficult for them to remain positive, and give maximum effort. I do believe they had to question their coaches. Not outright but in their minds.

I certainly hope he can do that and find a way to put butts in the seats.

I am going to be optimistic and hope we have the money to retain coaches who do well here. :D

As 8106 said you can't sit here and rah rah rah, and expect change on that alone. You can be optimistic and positive all you want, but at the end of the day you have to work hard to have success.
