Yes it is! 6 games this month with 4 at home. Tuesday we'll welcome a cupcake, Western New Mexico at the Don. Then we jump into the fire at NMSU on Saturday.
Is It Basketball Season Yet?
- Thread starter groundrounds
- Start date
It’s time for my annual, buy CUSA.tv subscription. I recommend it for other out of towners.
Help a brother understand something. For the game at NMSU on Nov 13th, the aggie web site says it's on ESPN+. But the UTEP athletics site doesn't say anything about a stream. If it's on ESPN+ then I'm a happy camper!
Could ESPN+ block it depending on region?

Details please I am definitely wanting to watch some Utep Basketball Games this year!
I’d hold off on calling them a cupcake until we see what our team is like. I seem to recall Eastern New Mexico beating Utep at the beginning of the season some years back
https://conferenceusa.com/watch/purchase.aspx#register It’s $10.95 a month, well worth the price… and can cancel easy via website. I usually keep it for 4 months
I purchased the C-USA stream a couple of years ago and it was absolutely AWFUL. Won't buy it again.
Well worth the price? ESPN+ gives a lot more content for $4 less. Better get used to it, probably the only way to watch CUSA teams in 2023!
The stream was choppy and ghosted for large portions of the broadcast. I just didn't enjoy it much. But as I said, it's been a couple of years so maybe they've fixed it but I'm not going to buy it again quite yet. I'll wait until I hear glowing reviews on here about their service.
Also, I had paid a little over $100 for the year and with the streaming issues and half (or so) of the games being on other streaming services I just felt it wasn't worth the cost. At $10.95/mo it still seems over priced.
It is listed on ESPN's web site to be shown on ESPN+. That's great news. I was originally going to sign up for a day pass with AggieVision to watch the game like I did a couple of years ago.
I watched a couple of games on MinerTV last year and they were good. But previous years it wasn't good. 2 Years ago they had an annoying habit of stopping the broadcast before the end of the game, and they did it repeatedly. Grrr!
I purchased CUSA TV last year and had no issues.
I don't recall anything bad except maybe there were at one time issues about the score, shot clock and time clock not showing. Not sure if that was last year or not, but something is better than nothing.
For $11 a month to watch a few games is worth it imo. That's about the price for one ticket. If you live out of town and you can't attend the games then that's the way to go. After basketball season is over cancel the subscription. Unless you like watching Olympic sports. Then keep it.
That's exactly what I do every year. I think it's Teicher doing the home games.
Same as me. This year in November and December you'll watch 8 games. That's 2.75 per game. In January there's 6 games that's 1.83 per game. In February there's only 3 games but still comes out to 3.66 per game. There's no games in March so no point in buying the subscription in that month or until next November.
That was a good interview because he was very honest. Said the school has alot of history but its recent history is a black eye on the program.

Finally a nice write up on the Miners. Interesting how UTEP as a brand is way down from previous (and great honesty from coach). He seems to have said and done all the right things so far. I'm willing to give him a little rope on recruiting.
Looks like Maring will start along with the returning starters and Golding wants to go 9 deep (10 if possible). 5 guards and 4 bigs for now.

I'm anxious to see Maring play. Him and Tydus could be a good team underneath.
It’s improved over the years, the ending the games early was so annoying! Like what was stated above, if you are out of town. It’s the only way we can watch these games, choppy or not. It’s worth the money IMO. Hopefully UTEP gets a cut or most of it lol how many sign up? Me and what 10 others total 😂
The media was hyping up Terry and his recruiting the first year or two. UTEP was getting good pub from basketball gurus. Terry let them down.
But no more mentioning Terry. Sorry.
I'm signed up. I went to Miner Athletics and they have filled out the Watch Section of the schedule. Every game (except maybe 2) have streaming options now. It's either ESPN+ or Miner TV although Stadium pops up occasionally.
I prefer MinerTV if Teich is calling the game, even if there are a few weird things in the broadcast. I haven't figured how to sync Teich with an ESPN+ broadcast. Any suggestions?
Listen to him on the UTEP miners app or here. There will be a lag between the radio and the tv of about 5-8 seconds
Yes, I understand that. But, someone on this board mentioned a way to delay the video using an app or computer program. I wish I could find that post.
With fb, it's no problem because the audio lines up with the replay of the play. But basketball moves too fast. It's a Miner irritation but not a big deal.
