UTEP vs NMSU

Don't abandon. Give your input. Trust me, UTEP admins and media read it. Now right now everything is a slow drip of poop................poop...............poop. Second, sucks is an understatement. "We all want success for UTEP sports"? Yes. Now in all sincerity Sis, from 2002-03 when this site opened up thanks to DH, there has been totally craziness and nastiness. Kyotte's Den had their share, too.
However, UTEP does have periods of good times and WHAM! All of sudden this site is more popular than the decolletage of Christina Hendricks. UTEP self destructed against NMSU but won two east coast road wins. It's good, but the frustration is Golding. His team are just too damn Helter Skelter and fans are frustrated.
We’ve been over this shit a thousand times.
Coaching is a hard job, but these coaches/AD are paid to win.
Win a conference championship. Get into the NIT and win a game or two. Get into March Madness. Win a bowl game. Every year? No. Maybe every 4 years, or once per coaching tenure?
Are these reasonable expectations?

And remember to use the "Ignore" functions to make trolls disappear! It makes your Digs experience much more palatable.
Not to mention, Bronzeing is near or at the top of the pay scale in CUSA. If UTEP is paying 450k like FIU, we can accept results like last year. The way he is being paid, should result in premium results.
Hey, some of us are old, and all we have left are the mammaries...I mean memories.
Oh yeah, right.
Mr not since 1992 stated over and over and over and over and over and over. UTEP wins a big game or hard fought game or goes on a mini win streak and you reference the past over and over and over.......
Yeah. Got it!🫡
When was Wham! popular? The 80s
When did UTEP basketball go to the tournament 7 years in a row? The 80s
Unfortunately this does not bode well for the future of UTEP hoops. Now some will say that I'm being negative. All I'm saying this is just plain old science, pure and simple and I trust we don't have any science deniers here.
Don't let Miner failures live in your brain rent free.
Keep the faith, as the weak will inherent the conference crown.
believe in Miner Magic..
the brain you safe may be your own...
Mountain West Miners coming for ya...

Those are relevant to performance and expectations. A décolletage isn’t. I had to look it up to know what it was. Christina Hendriks hasn’t done anything since Mad Men. That’s all I’m saying. Not that big of a deal. But like always, continue to talk about me instead of moving on.
ESPN+ low mid major bubble watch:
Who might buck that trend? VCU has the best tourney odds overall, with 14% of that 52% mark coming from its chance at an at-large bid. But MVC leaders Drake (39th) and Bradley (56th) actually rank higher in SOR than the Rams (60th) do. None have played any top-50 games by BPI, but that trio is a combined 6-5 against top-100 opponents. And then, Liberty has by far the strongest tourney odds of any Conference USA team -- though practically all of that is wrapped up in its probability of winning the conference tournament.
Bubble Watch spotlight: VCU. Coach Ryan Odom and the Rams rank 49th in BPI, which normally would be good enough to at least make a run at an at-large tourney bid, but VCU has also lost some close games it shouldn't have (most notably against Seton Hall in late November and St. Bonaventure on New Year's Eve). That leaves its résumé stats in a precarious place without many more chances to boost them -- VCU's best remaining game probably comes at Dayton on Feb. 7. This puts pressure on the Rams to win the A-10 title and not have to hope they're in a multibid league.
The Enigma: Drake. As mentioned above, the Bulldogs rank 39th in SOR -- ahead of literally dozens of power-conference programs -- and they have a 3-0 record against BPI top-100 opponents. (They beat Vanderbilt, for instance, which just knocked off Tennessee.) While Drake won't have too many more chances to boost its résumé, it could force the committee to give it a look if it just keeps winning. The question is, can it? In contrast with that gaudy SOR ranking, the Bulldogs are 85th in BPI and have a 2% chance of winning out over the rest of their schedule, despite that slate ranking only 142nd toughest in the nation. That's why Drake is a great example of a team that would potentially make the tourney if the season ended today but faces an uphill climb to make it in reality.
Locks: None
Should Be In: None
Work to Do: VCU (52%), Bradley (44%), Liberty (42%), Drake (29%), Dayton (24%)
Outside Looking In (capped at five teams): George Mason (23%), MTSU (15%), Louisiana Tech (13%), Murray St (13%), Saint Joseph's (11%)
Low Mid-Majors (Atlantic 10, C-USA, Missouri Valley)
This last group of conferences is traditionally right on the border of who gets an at-large bid. (A season ago, only one of them -- the A-10 -- got more than its conference champ into the tournament field.) This season, the BPI forecast is calling for 3.3 tourney entries from this group, meaning there's little daylight for an at-large case to be made out of this group of squads.Who might buck that trend?
