There are still fans who support Floyd. I had dinner tonight with a booster who personally thanked Price for what he did.
I meant the booster thanked Price for what he did the other night to the "Fire Floyd" sign holders.
The letter to the editor makes it sound like Floyd took this job out of the kindness of his heart. He took it because no one else wanted him after his USC situation went to hell. I'm sure he loves EP and UTEP but he has accomplished less here than the coaches who came and left after having success. His ego gets out of hand and his personnel turnover is unreal.
Having said all that, if he starts winning games, all will be forgiven. Such is the nature of being a fan.

One would think so but with the slow, agonizing years before firing Mike Price, I guess it's not that surprising. Damn shame.Wow. If that's the attitude of UTEP fat cats and high rollers who really have the financial ability to move the needle...
If that's the bar for performance and accountability at UTEP, no wonder athletics are in the crapper. You'd think somebody smart enough to make some serious coin in life would know a little bit about ROI.

Does your booster friend know where you stand in regards to CTF?
So it's more or less them defending their friend more than defending a coach they feel is doing a good job. Makes sense.
Like it or not (I am not saying Price should have stayed for that long), but he did help energize the fan base and brought in so many new fans, got UTEP ranked, beat ranked teams, and went to three bowl games Floyd did exactly the opposite of what Price did.
Hard to argue with the results. My point has always been on these kids who leave the program for various reasons some valid, some questionable, which has directly affected the product on the court.

Given the amount of ball washing the El Paso Times does for UTEP I wouldn't be surprised if they printed the only 2 letters they received in support of Floyd.
I wouldn't take these letters as indicative of the a UTEP fan base as a whole because only a moron would say a fire Floyd sign is in bad taste, but it's OK to have a press conference where your coach cusses out a member of the media and it makes national news.
Off the top of my head, Houston and Fresno St. There may have been more.What ranked teams did price beat ?
