The only positive Tyrin Smith
- Thread starter FiliUTEP
- Start date
He’s put up tons of yards, but that miss vs UNT was a killer and that fumble yesterday was a killer as well.
That fumble was embarrassing. He was looking back taunting the UNM player.
Smith drops 2-3 passes for every 1.
Fili, Miner fans have a gene discovered decades ago. It’s in the local water supply and I’m not talking about lithium. It’s the “hope springs eternal” gene.
Doesn't matter. All of our best players will be gone. It will be a start over, hopefully with a new AD and coach
He tested the transfer waters last year and nobody bit. With all his drops this year, I can’t imagine he’ll gain all that much more interest. Maybe I’m wrong.
WKU gave him a sniff according to sports sites but no hard commit I believe.
He's on pace to put up almost identical stats to those Cowing had last year. If he wants out he'll have opportunities.
You could be right, but Smith staying at UTEP almost like a “marriage of convenience” may be the best option for everyone at all. He’s getting the bulk of the targets and his starting job is not in jeopardy and he’s getting targets even with his drops and mistakes. Will he be given that much leeway at a bigger school?
The 85 Bears defense would have a hard time overcoming Dimel's incompetency.
I personally would like for Dimel to the honorable thing and step down, immediately.
Oh yeah, we are all going to remember the prestigious 2021 NM Bowl, 30 years from now.
This is UTEP. Yes, unfortunately, we will. Bowl appearances, even though the current bowl system is the NCAA's equivalent of "every kid gets a trophy", are highly valued here, as we are constantly the proverbial kid that somehow always gets left out. So yeah, while the fans of most programs won't dwell on making a minor bowl in which they lost, it will always be a badge of honor for the Miner faithful.
Aside from the event happening, what do you remember about the 2010 NM Bowl vs BYU? What specific plays were key or memorable?
I remember seeing half the team drunk at the bar in hotel the night before the game.
Don’t remember anything about the game then right? Just that it happened and something non-game related happening
Game was a blowout. Poorly coached game. I only remember it because the team was drunk and at that point you knew a ass kicking was coming. I haven't seen other teams drunk in hotel bar the night before a game that's why it's memorable.
