UTEP vs NMSU

The 2006 team was the best. That OT loss against Texas Tech destroyed the teams morale. I believe 5 or 6 of those seniors went to the NFL and we had the talent to run with anyone. Palmer to Higgins was an incredible combo and Marcus Thomas was a beast. Darn shame
That 2006 team had a lot of potential but their downfall was their inability to run the ball. If I remember correctly they were one of the worst running teams in the country. Thomas only averaged 3.3 ypc and he had a little over 500 on the year. But that’s what made Price’s teams so fun and frustrating at the same time. He could score 35 but give up 42.
 
UTEP could loose all the games in their schedule, except for the two against NMSU. This one is on Golding, we can't build a winning program with him.
I agree 100%. That should be rule no. 1. Then we go from there. But at the same time if we are the Basketball School we think we are then 1 NCAA Tournament appearance in 15 years is unacceptable.

The top team in the conference is nmsu and we just got blown out at home by them.
Kind of joked about on Saturday during the beat down, but a guy like Hooten may just be a solid replacement for Golding. He checks alot of boxes, and may jump at a chance to coach in the MWC. At the very least, if Senter had any clue, he would hire Moccia to consult on the next hire. 😀

Why don’t we wait and see how the season plays out before we throw this team under the bus. It’s one game for Pete sakes
