It was for all purposes a death penalty that we still haven't recovered from.
They killed our forward momentum. Floyd and the generous boosters revived the program in the 80s. It was killed again with the NCAA sanctions. Afterwards, it's been stop, start.Umm, UTEP made 8 NCAA appearances from 1984-1992. What are you talking about?

UTEPs wounds are largely self-inflicted. However, the program disrupted a system and a hiarchy that was in place and was attacked and hurt by the establishment as a result.The person I was quoting said “death penalty”. How did the team make the 67,70, and 75 NCAA tournaments with this perceived “death penalty”? Doesn’t look like a death penalty to me. Maybe UTEP should have remained Texas Western instead of becoming a little brother to UT.
You guys always blame UTEP’s failures on other people. UTEP fails because of themselves.

Same thing happened to other sports disruptors.
Stop being an obtuse asshat. So annoying.Far from a death penalty, especially when you make the NCAAs 3 times in the 9 years following your championship. 64 teams didn’t make the tournament then either.

You're such a jerk.When people stop posting outright lies or horrible personal thoughts, I will.
