El Pasoans are codos. There's money but it's not gonna get spent on NIL deals.
UTEP Basketball Recruiting
- Thread starter minermx07
- Start date
Solomon was on a visit here a few weeks ago
Solomon would be a a solid addition. Underrecruited guy who developed into a productive player; similar to Tyler Stevenson. The question, again, is can Golding seal the deal? We still have 4 openings by my count.
Yes! But the fact that he didn’t already commit, is not a good sign.
Maybe UTEP used up all their resources on Sibley and Z. I'm shocked Sibley or Z didnt enter the portal. Were any of them close to entering?
Was this supposed to be a big week for us? Seems like another dud.
Thus the won't believe it until I see it mentality.
The decline of UTEP basketball, happened well before the “transfer portal”. Many fans gave Floyd too much time and stuck with him. They accepted mediocrity by not demanding a replacement for him.
That is different from where UTEP falls in the college athletics landscape. NMSU has won numerous basketball championships over the last 10 years, they’re not moving up either. They will be with us and the SJSU’s of the world. At this point, there’s nothing either one can do that will promote them to the next level. It’s not happening.
I have no problem with the transfer portal. Problem is, UTEP or Golding has been unable to use it properly. That sucks. Options? See what next year brings and go from there. Hot seat should be on Golding if he gets swept by NMSU.
Source - UTEP might be signing a high level player soon! This player is wanted by other colleges and is able to score points.
Wrong. Batting like under .200 at this point.
Keep the info flowing in!
You're obviously hacking Patrick's phone. Not good, stealing credit like that.
He is a short version of Julyan Stone.
Lol, I mean I had been told that he was committing, but after newton signed elsewhere I decided to shut my mouth. So I guess Solomon is probably also committing. Also, remember the name Marcus Williams.
Lol, I was wrong about Newton. I’m sure I’m not the only one! Then I second guessed myself about givance after newton committed elsewhere. But I do remember being pretty confident about those 3 guys. Basically cause I was told it was a done deal.
Significant drop in scoring production at P5, but averaged almost 15/4 assists and 1.4 steals as a freshman at Wyoming. Yes please.
Solomon would be a solid pickup too
Now a big man!!
Yes, he struggled at A&M and they became one of the best teams in the country after he left the team. He was a baller earlier in the season though and has star potential at this level.
Hey man, I appreciate your input. It's nice knowing who has been coming in for visits and who might commit.
We can't all be batting 1.000 (except for No Wins at sarcasm)
Yes, a while back! I didn’t think he was even an option. I don’t know how it will work though since it’s his second transfer in 2 years without graduation.
He'd have to apply for a waiver. If not, he would need to sit out a year. Maybe the idea is to go ahead and stash him for a year, and have him available next year post Givance.

So far Nate and Colin deaver are the only ones saying he that he has committed. Nothing from Shamar and Verbal commits.
Anyone in the 6'7" to 6'9" 220 to the 240-pound range that can rebound and score?
I hope Mike Patrick is not their source. No offense Mike.
Ive done my own research. I dont know if Utep is recruiting him, but he does follow Golding on twitter. I just looked at any bigs that are fol0lwing Golding on twitter. He does have a lot of guards following him.
