Proof is on the court. We'll see.Man CRT must have a freakin bear trap or something in the UTEP practice facility. This guy gets EVERY recruit that he brings in. He is literally hitting like 95%
So unless somebody leaves or declares or is replaced, we are pretty much set for the next 3 years with this team. I seriously doubt it, but It is possible that we don't sign another recruit until two years from now. There will be no seniors on the 2019 team and our allotment is full. I think Terry will shoot for the conference championship and the NCAA tournament pretty quick.
Now if somebody like Jalen Green is interested in UTEP, then I'm sure CRT will make it work.
Ironic. Rivals doesn't have UTEP as "offered" (which was offered in March), but they have Fresno State?
Is this kid another walkon?
He looks like he could be anywhere between 6-6 and 6-8. Couldn't find anything except tons of videos.Must be, but not absolutely sure. Has played his hs ball in a small community outside SA but also plays for the same AAU team as another of our commits, Brendan Wenzel. Not much out there on him, but in a vid clip it’s shows he’s got some hops. Also read a rivals write up about him being extremely active around the basket and that he rebounds well.

Is terry going to have 2 teams??
That's not a problem if that happens it means we are winning. I'll take it.I am telling you the next couple of years is going to be a dog fight
to be the starters. The only problem that I see is that if Coach
Terry takes us to the big dance in the 20-21 year other schools
will be knocking on Coach Terry's door.
Go Miners...
Like Develman said I'll take it too. It has been a brutal 8 years under Floyd and it is worth it. Plus if Terry leaves , we will have some top notch up and coming assistant coaches applying for the job with a stacked NCAA Tourney roster and 750k base pay.I am telling you the next couple of years is going to be a dog fight

I think you just made Life shat his pants with delight.A&M will be the school that take CRT.

NoSo is it just me, or is anybody else concerned that our MBB scholarships are locked up for the next 3 seasons. Of course players can turnover for whatever reason, but let's just theorize that things play out the same as they are now. CRT has a plan.
We are all expecting CRT to have better teams in 19-20' and 20-21'. How good they can be is obviously yet to be seen. We know that Terry is staying close to a 5-star player for 20-21' (whether its for UTEP or another school). We are also all expecting CRT to move on eventually, depending on how well he does. This could be anywhere from 2-5 years, but I'm thinking his goal is 3 seasons.
So let's say best case scenerio that CRT blows up the miners and we win CUSA and make the NCAA in 20' and 21'. He gets some big games and creates sellouts. Everything is going the way we want and then he moves on and leaves the cupboard bare for another rebuild, only 4 years from now.
I know this is all conjecture and things can end up totally different, but my concern is the long-term upward trajectory of the miner's MBB program. Are those opportunities gone for us? Are we just a springboard from here on out, or is there a chance that we can maintain at the top of CUSA? What do you all think?

Yes I agree, but are we ok with a rebuild every 4-5 years, or do you want us to be able to maintain? Barbee had us set up to explode but then Floyd let us fall back down. I know first things first, but I'm a little concerned that CRT used up all his scholarships so quick. Lets just hope that 3-4 years from now CRT has us rolling and Senter can build on the momentum when coach leaves. Just remember how hard that will be though if the cupboard is bare.Aside from Don Haskins, and probably Tim Floyd, every other coach has or has planned to use UTEP as a stepping stone. Haskins seemed too comfortable for his own good, and Floyd tried to leave (according to rumors) and by the end he probably realized he would be an idiot to leave given the job security with his boy Stull.
