Sun Bowl (utep locker room)

[TeXaco]

so I have a question regarding UTEP faacilities. I think the Larry Durham facility is quite nice. Has great offices, team rooms, locker rooms.

however knowing how the team enters the field since Coach Price started the tradition of walking down the stairs. Is that the only way the team can get the field?

The other end of the stadium (south side) has the entrance for the visiting locker rooms. How does the UTEP get to their locker room at halftime and after the game or any other time that is needed. Do they have to walk up the stairs?

Also are there any videos or pictures of the coaches offices, athletic offices, UTEP football team rooms,etc?


Thank you

UTEP has two locker rooms. One is in the Larry K Duram Center. Its very nice but the only field access through the stands in the North endzone. Utep also has a locker room in the the south endzone. If you're looking at the field from the Durham Center, UTEP's locker room is on the left side of the tunnel.

UTEP's locker room in the South endzone is pretty nice it has been renovated twice in the last five years. Even during the Price years the locker room in the South endzone was utilized during halftime. Kugler's team doesnt enter the field from the durham center because of the dangers of falling. A tunnel from the Durham center to field was discussed but it was much too costly.

So they have 2 locker rooms. I did not know that. Thanks for the tidbit.

so during the week do they ever use the game day locker rooms or the Durham center is used all the time but game days?

Just to clarify. There is no more minor walk down the stairs no longer? I thought they did this last year. Reason for falling has some truth but not sure if any injuries since Price started it.

Any pictures of both locker rooms?

What are the UTEP traditions on game day? is there tailgating? a team walk thru the tailgating like a Miner walk?

Please clarify if known, but UTEP goes from the LKD so the fans get up close and cheer as they walk to the stadium steps.
