Here are some thoughts on the UTEP basketball season, some general meanderings down the path of success and failure, a note or two about signs, general wanderings through Conference USA and the possibility of reuniting with old rivals from the Mountain West someday.
This is a short-handed UTEP basketball team, one that will have to battle and defend and use every ounce of its resources. And no one can bring that out of a group better than Tim Floyd. Perhaps this is a two-step into the pantry of glasses half filled, but this group of Miners has some potential.
