How many minutes did he play, and what cool stuff did he do? I didn't get to watch or listen to the game since I'm driving to Albuquerque (from Illinois).
McNeese St @ Utep MBB
- Thread starter groundrounds
- Start date
Hard to tell, because they haven't been at full strength in more than 50% of the games so far.
They look generic in my opinion. Like just paste some logo on the front and a Nike logo. Lazy and plain.
He didn't say that THIS was for COVID, just stating that starters missing games is more common right now due to COVID.
Things are going to be tough because of that. It's going to be a rough stretch once conference play begins before we get everyone back. If everyone is healthy we are a top 5 team in CUSA. The problem is getting there, and making sure everyone gells once they are healthy.
Yes, tonight it was concussion related for a couple guys. I think what groundrounds is saying is that it wouldn’t be surprising to regularly see DNPs on the stat sheet as part of the norm due to Covid related issues.
I think we have learned that, this season, we'll win some we shouldn't and lose some headscratchers it'll be nice to get back to 100 percent.
You can watch the replay on cusatv. It's towards the end of the game. You'll be glad you did.
Gotta admit that mcneese played really well until the end. If they had a longer bench it could have been a different story.
I’m not saying this year we land one, but within 2 years we’ll have a guy like him. By guy like him, I mean a near 7 footer. Not a career 5 point and 5 rebound a game guy.
This will hurt El Paso, in other events. Which UTEP gets money from. The program just needs to get better.
Bad Bunny has no problems selling out the Don. Tickets don't cost $5. Try more like $400-$500. That's why I don't buy that bs excuse that UTEP Tickets are too expensive. Seems like EP has given up on UTEP sports.
I agree. It’s not about ability to pay, its about value and willingness to pay. Like you said, Bad Bunny can sellout because people want to see him bad enough. Not so much the Miner bb team anymore.
Bad Bunny doesn't play the Haskins Center 20 times in 4 months
Right. He doesn’t visit El Paso 20 times a year, every year. If he had a concert as bad as the Riverside game, not many people would be back for an encore.
I don’t even know who that is but people would not be back for another show if The Rolling Stones had a bad concert.
Don’t know who that is either. Meh…
I paid between $500-600 for 2 seats to Metallica a few years ago. One time thing, I will probably never see in person again.
I would never pay $68 a seat to see a UTEP vs NMSU game like Senter charged 2 weeks ago though.

Ok, so I’ve heard the term “Rico Suave” before but never heard that song before. Certainly never saw that video before either. Only took about 10 seconds of that video to know I’ve never seen it or heard the song.
Oh, well.
I've been following bad bunny since tickets use to cost $10 for his show. I once did a Texas tour of him. Saw him in Sugarland, Austin and Dallas in the same year. Nowadays no way in hell I'm paying $500 to go see him. Now a season ticket for $500 to see UTEP 20 times, of course.
Observations and questions...
1) Will Saterfield's contributions last night have
any impact on Golding's decision to allow
more playing time?
2) Didn't see or hear anything about the
reduced playing time for Sibley and Bonke.
Have I missed something?
3) I have been a constant critic of Kennedy, but
he's been like a brand new player these last
two games. I love it.
4) It's going to be a unique experience when we
finally have a completely healthy team all
on the floor at the same time.

I think he mentioned that Bonke doesn't roll during pick and rolls in the post game interview
No but he was sick last week so probably something to do with that
Excuse my oldness but I have no idea what a bad bunny is, I've had a few tasty bunnies but never a bad bunny. And certainly never paid $400 for one.
But seriously anyone have the scoop on why Sibley played only 5 minutes? He still have the flu? He had a great game against NMSU a so-so game against Kansas and the last two he hasn't played much???
I can't believe people actually liked/like this crap.
That's my point. That people in EL PASO have no problems paying $400 for one event but bi*ch about paying $170 for a season ticket to watch 20 games.
Apples to hammers. How many fans really want to pay to see WNMU, NMMU, McNeese St, and FIU? Nobody is going to Bad Bunny to see the opener. They’re going for the main guy.
He’s coming one time, maybe never again. UTEP basketball is on 15 times a year, every year.
Bad Bunny has been coming to El Paso once or twice a year for at least 4-5 years. He's going to keep coming since he can sell out at the Don at whatever price he wants to set.
Okay? Apparently that is top notch entertainment for some. WNMU, FIU, and the other dreadful schools on UTEP’s schedule is not.
That's why you can get 20 games for less than half the price of one event.
