Miner Rush, a UTEP Miners community

As noted before, I'm not sure Miner fans have any desire to go to a BYU-less Mountain West Conference, although, I think we would enjoy being conference rivals with New Mexico again. Tha said, VA Libertarian wrote a smashing FanPost over at Mountain West Connection explaining why, if the MWC did expand, UTEP should be next in line for a MWC invite (particularly over the Houston Cougars). It's a heck of a read.
