UTEP marketing is so lazy. 14 new players for fans to get to know and to promote these videos and create some fun for the player and fans but instead we get a shitty produced video with some random chick with a shitty script. Fire everyone.

You know it’s bad when the legendary @UTEPMinerVoice does the repost 🫡 @UTEPAthletics

I listened to Jim Senter’s interview on KROD 600 twice this past wensdsday, and quite frankly, I walked away more concerned about the direction of UTEP Athletics than I was before. As a frustrated fan, Senter sounded overwhelmed, uncertain, and almost defeated when discussing the challenges facing this program. I understand the financial limitations, NIL, revenue sharing, and the changing landscape of college athletics. But these challenges aren’t unique to UTEP.
Senter has been at UTEP since 2017. At what point do we stop hearing about the obstacles and start seeing actual results?
Football continues to struggle, fan frustration is growing, and I still don’t hear a clear, convincing vision for how this athletic department plans to move forward.
I’ll give Senter credit for the Mountain West move, but conference affiliation alone doesn’t build a winning program.
This isn’t personal. It’s about accountability and leadership. After listening twice, my biggest takeaway was that the person tasked with navigating UTEP through arguably the most challenging era in college athletics didn’t sound particularly confident in how to do it.
UTEP fans aren’t asking for miracles. We’re asking for a plan, accountability, and a reason to believe.
At some point, you have to wonder whether the challenges are simply too big for the current leadership. @stevekaplowitz @600espnelpaso @AdrianBroaddus @MattCastr0 @UTEPAthletics @UTEPMBB @UTEPFB @UtepZay

Our offensive guru 🤦🏽♂️ @CoachSWUTEP come on man, your offense is too predictable. I call the play before you do. If I can call it, I’m sure a professional defensive coordinator can too

#Sheelsgameday @UTEPFB @NDSUfootball all the way from El Paso Tx thank you for the Hospitality #BisonNation
This is the best tweet I’ve read in a long time! @JimSenter2 @CoachSWUTEP
UTEP leadership keeps asking El Paso to support the football program. Perhaps it's time for the athletic department to demonstrate its commitment to building a winning one.
Declining attendance and fan enthusiasm should be a wake-up call, not an excuse to question fan loyalty.
Why is UTEP administration so quick to defend the status quo rather than explain its plan for improvement?
Nobody questions Scotty Walden's work ethic or the dedication of our student-athletes. But hard work isn't a strategy, and patience isn't progress.
Instead of repeatedly asking fans to "trust the process," give us five things:
A roadmap: Measurable goals for the next 12–24 months.
Accountability: An honest evaluation of what's failing and how it will be fixed.
Recruiting strategy: A clear plan for competing in the NIL and transfer portal era.
Financial transparency: Where does UTEP stand against its peers, and what's needed to compete?
Progress reports: Regular updates showing results, setbacks, and adjustments.
The Mike Price era proved El Paso will show up when it believes in the program.
Dwindling attendance is a confidence problem.
Our student-athletes deserve support, but they also deserve leadership committed to delivering results.
Stop asking El Paso to blindly trust the process. Show us the plan, measure the progress, and give fans a reason to believe again.
"You gotta believe" remember that one? What happened to the EPMAD- and Senter having fan round tables?

This right here! When will the media in EP start asking the tough questions? When do we stop saying “ it takes time” bs! you want our support but don’t care to listen to the fans @stevekaplowitz @AdrianBroaddus @600espnelpaso @UTEPAthletics @CoachSWUTEP @JimSenter2 #MinerTalk
The financial argument for keeping @CoachSWUTEP makes absolutely no sense. By continuing to put a noncompetitive product on the field in Year 3, we’re potentially losing at least 10,000 fans per game. At an average ticket price of $20, that’s $200,000 in lost ticket revenue alone. Throw in another estimated $50,000 per game in concessions and parking, and you’re looking at roughly $750,000 (estimated) in potential lost revenue over the final three home games.
At this point, how much money are we actually saving by keeping him? We’re potentially losing more money by holding on to him than we would by moving on. Put the buyout on a credit card if you have to, but it’s time to turn the page.
At what point does this university stop accepting mediocrity? We’re in Year 3, and the fans deserve better than the consistently poor product being put on the field. Enough is enough @UTEPFB @AdrianBroaddus @600espnelpaso @MattCastr0 … didn’t even have enough fans to give away all the commemorative coins. What a joke…
Are we trying to see how many 3 & outs we can get in a game or what? @CoachSWUTEP @UTEPFB #Wheresmycoin
