A lot of transfers seek playing time and Golding has a lot of that to offer
UTEP Basketball Recruiting
- Thread starter minermx07
- Start date
As I stated a few weeks ago that Golding stated in the last post game interview, "UTEP has value [now]".
He is a proven coach, good connections and pulling out a top state performer out of Cleveland under the nose of Dayton, Cincy (probably not interested) and Cleveland State in A-10 and Mid-American territory.
We need to get past this "Yeah, but I dunno, he hasn't proved himself...".
Golding has and in just one year.
For now. You can only “promise” so much time and if you’re bringing in 5 other guards, there’s actually not that much available. Especially if you’re a marginal player.
I never believed that Newton would be a Miner just because he went to high school here.
Last place I would have expected him to sign with the interest noted.
Another fail but UTEP...
This feels like an episode of wicked tuna. We've casted like 10 rods, we're just waiting for some bites while hoping for a few big ones AND secretly praying that we are even in the right area.
I guess all that speculation about wanting to play in his home city with his brother were all Internet rumors.
Yea, I think so. I kind of got the vibe he wanted to play in the east coast at the best possible league and school available. After hs he took the best east coast offer available. In one of the tweets UCONN is the first school mentioned that's recruiting him.
It’s too bad too. UTEPfan1966 was gonna sign him up for a NIL deal!
That's why I'm in the won't believe until I see it stage of Fandom. Been burned too many times already.
It was just confirming UTEP @ Texas MBB a done deal. UT plays Gonzaga after the UTEP game.
ax saw it and called it.

"................“UConn was my first and only visit, so I pretty much knew I wanted to go there the whole time,” Newton said Wednesday. “I wanted to get a feel for the guys and the coaches. When I got that, I just pretty much knew I was going there.”........."

Is Colin Deaver the guy we hate? I forget. Anyway this seems like auld news.
This week is a dead period and next week is a quiet period. Sure Golding has a ton of visits lined up the two weeks and we will start seeing signings
Is his brother going to join him there? Do we still have a shot at the other local kid?
The dead Period ends today. And the quiet period starts and is another week. But the quiet period only means that the coaches can't go out and recruit and bother recruits at their homes and games.
They can fly guys in and host visits. Quiet Period is the week when you bring kids to you instead of going to them.

Picked a 9 win team over us. I think this answers a lot of the questions regarding Golding's recruiting abilities.
Yes very big loss. The next few weeks will be telling. They got a lot of guys coming in on visits, so the roster should start taking form.
