Damn shame UTEP doesn't recruit well in their own backyard. Missed out on Pavia, missed out on Uhrlacher.
2step…you said he was a once in a generation type player. I still don’t know if I agree with that statement, however he IS a game changer. He played a helluva game today.
This might be the one of the largest crowds in the history of football watching the Vandy fans pull down the goal posts.
Might even surpass the 850,000+ that were there when UTEP beat BYU.

It was a great game to attend. The crowd was awesome and I only hope and wish the same good fortune be gifted to the Miner fan base soon!
GO MINERS!
Vandy folks like Skip and Wolken are calling it the win of their lifetimes. I would say generational for most. Jerry Kill coaches players up, in head coach or consultant roles.
My UTEP thought is how can we whiff on so many potential QBs? UIW alone has scooped up Lindsey Scott Jr, Cam Ward, and Zach Calzada while Gavin was slinging it to Miners or opponents.
With Warner coming in from a championship program like Cibolo Steele, I hope he replicates Vittatoe’s (Euless Trinity) success. That recruitment of players from successful programs, is one of the things that has resonated with me about Walden’s introduction speech and recruitment philosophy.
UTEP whiffs on QBs, shooting guards, coaches…it’s part of the culture.
ULM just went to 4-1 by beating 4-0 JMU. 2-0 in the SBC now. Had maybe 5,000 people there. Guess what? They have a first year head coach. Even ULM can hire the right person and win right away.
73 new players.
73 new players.
One added note about the Vandy game. It truly was generational (like the UTEP win over BYU). The students carried the goalposts 2 miles all the way down Broadway and dumped it in the Cumberland River....it was epic! I want that same feeling so badly for UTEP.
GO MINERS!
GO MINERS!
Doing a great job. I’m just not sure how receptive the donors would have been hiring the OC/QB coach from a 4-8 UNM team. I know I wouldn’t have been thrilled.
Sometimes you hit with these hires, but you can’t tell me you thought ULM made a great hire at the time of the hire…..4-8 lobos
He was also head coach of UAB for 1 year before that.
Unlucky for us, great hires aren’t determined at their beginning. They’re determined near the end.
So who was your pick from the options we had? I had White, Walden, and Eck as my favorites. Everyone here had a hard-on for Marion bc he was black.
I don’t remember. I am fine with Walden’s hire. I didn’t have wild expectations of him like some did. I thought winning 4 games was how it was going to go. We will be lucky if he gets 2. That’s fine, I guess, his first year. Next year better see big time improvement.
I am fine with hiring any young coach or assistant here. I hated the Dismel hire, because he had failed before and had not been a head coach for like 20 years. Give me any assistant from any program over a coach like that.
I want Bronzeing’s replacement to be a young assistant coach from another program.
What in the KKK is this bullshit?
Take it as you will. Dude had a cowboy hat and he was the second coming of Deion to a lot of digs posters.
WTF are you talking about? Where is your proof that anybody said that?
The amount of questionable language and political discussion on this board lately have been nearly insufferable
Back to talk about Pavia:
Game broadcasters spoke of Pavia's obsession with constantly following Johnny Manziel and his (A&M's) success rate against higher rates teams like Bama.
Yikes!
Hope Pavia's obsessions remain only with the successes and not the costly failures that have been Manziel's self inflicted legacy. Pavia has to travel his own path and not anyone else's.
Also, I don't understand the reference to Jerry Kill. The Vandy head coach is from Notre Dame. Is the observation solely about coaching? I'm pretty much convinced it's about recruiting and lack of recruiting.

Jerry Kill has brought toughness, swagger to Vanderbilt and it's paying dividends
Clark Lea was in desperate need of help in Nashville. After a 5-win season in 2022, Vanderbilt regressed to 2-10 in 2023 and the heat under his chair was gettin

Maybe we need a consultant.

Diego was a stud at NMSU and now in the SEC. Respect !
Even if Utep offered he wouldn't have played over our QB Stud Gavin Hardison. 🥴🥴🥴 It's up to the coach to play the right QB. Who knows how many Diegos passed through Utep and never got a chance to play?? Wasn't Rocky Perez under recruited?? How did Utep find him?
