Lost for words. Wow. Kinda puts things in perspective. We'll miss you coach. UTEP family forever.
Wins and losses be Damned, this is shocking and Sad News!!!
My birthday brother is gone. The life of his family has changed in an instant. It’s a sobering reminder to appreciate every moment. He faced a lot of criticism here, much of it undeserved. Yes, he lost games, but this program has been losing for a long time. In the end, life is so much more than football.
I remember months after getting hired seeing him at EPIA with his big smile walking out of the luggage terminal doors. He was a respected American football coach, even at the highest levels with some football analysts stating Dimel taught NFL coaches the effective way to run the "tush push". No, I have not verified if that is true. When I heard analysts state that, I knew he would land successfully back on his feet and the college world would hear his name again. We did, he landed at Illinois.
I mean this respectfully, but I will never forget when he got hired and UTEP fans everywhere collectively asked "Who the F%!# is Dana Dimel?!". He made sure we would not forget him. "Golly, Gee" burned in our memory.

He never did change his X/Twitter handle. So he will always be Utep Head Football Coach. 🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍 Rip @CoachDimelUTEP
