Former UTEP head coach Tony Barbee may find himself back on the sidelines as a head coach according to the Reno Gazette Journal.

SB Nation's Bill Connelly has started his annual College Football Countdown, and featured UTSA and Old Dominion this past week. Always a good read.

The El Paso Times writes about the UTEP Men's and Women's track teams opening their outdoor season with the UTEP Invitational.

A Report suggests the Missouri Valley Conference has shown interest in bringing in UAB

Tulsa lost to SE Oklahoma State by 3 on 12/10, a team UTEP beat by 47 the month before, but Tulsa regrouped and finished 2nd in the AAC.

I'm watching SDSU play right now, and this should be what UTEP fans hope Tim Floyd can turn the Miners into. A perennial mid major power.
