NMSU has a First Year Head Coach now that has the same record as Walden.

2 years ago, their 1st year coach won 7 games and won a bowl game. Then he made the conference championship game their first year in the league.

Been 57 years since UTEP won a bowl game and they’ve never played in the CUSA championship game, despite being in the league for 20 years. How’s that for the continuity you want?

Then root for NMSU.

Ok good for their last Coach. Shouldn’t their new Coach win 7 games this year?

Thats the standard that’s been set

I don’t know. Just pointing out that it’s possible and schools aren’t waiting 4 years to be good. AAC schools aren’t even giving 3 years now.

And your point is?

Mike Price had 7 Straight Losing Seasons. I'm guessing 1 or 2 years of being good is the trade off you have to live with.

Any competent athletic director would have made the decision to fire him around 2009 or 2010. I often wonder what level of interest there might have been in coaching at UTEP before the program was driven into the ground.
