In my 20 years of being a Utep fan we’ve sucked at being a basketball school.
Only one more conference title than the football team in that time span. Five bowl appearances compared to three NCAA tournament appearances
Look where being a basketball school has led us to. Stuck in CUSA 3.0 with a bunch of start ups and former FCS schools.
A true leader would have realized the importance of a strong football program in the current landscape.
I’m not blaming Senter but we have lacked vision for the last 20+ years. His hire of the most important coaching position doesn’t inspire much confidence that things changed.
Corona great point. You've echoed my sentiments exactly. The only way to improve basketball is to improve football.
