Golding disrespected AMCC (or whatever their name is) by giving minutes to players that don't regularly get minutes in the first half. He did not respect his opponents and AMCC made him pay. Golding's lineup decisions were arrogant in the first half. Golding is a veteran coach and should know better than this. Jones might be our best offensive player and was on the bench. This was a pathetic showing against a bad team. I'm pretty sure this was a buy game. The basketball team has no business losing this game; basketball has resources, NIL, everything. Ultimately, this loss is going to mean nothing in this terrible one bid conference, but Golding keeps saying that fans need to show up again. This is not going to happen with these bad loses that keep happening. This loss hurts potential ticket revenue for future games because people are going to see this loss and say, "ohhhh it's the same old UTEP."
AND HOW CAN WE NOT RECRUIT A SHOOTER?
Good night. Go Miners.
