UTEP coach

We will talk about some of the names that could be candidates for the UTEP football team and give our assessment as to why we “pick” them as a potential fit for the head coaching job, or if we “pass” on them as a candidate.

We found the new coach to be friendly, humble about getting the job and relentlessly energetic.

Hopefully, this is the beginning of a new “Golding Era” of Miner B-ball!

New UTEP head coach Joe Golding injected the Miner fan base with energy during his introductory press conference, as the 20th coach in program history spoke for the first time in front of the El Paso community Wednesday afternoon at the Haskins Center.

Joe Golding, who spent 10 years building Abilene Christian into a Southland Conference basketball power, will fill the Miners' coaching vacancy as the 20th coach in program history.

All eyes are on Director of Athletics Jim Senter to fill the hire for the UTEP men's basketball coaching vacancy.

After three seasons as head coach, Rodney Terry will leave the UTEP Miners for an assistant coaching position with Chris Beard at the University of Texas.
