New UTEP coach Joe Golding has rolled out a roadmap for his recruiting philosophies for the 2020-21 basketball squad.

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.

This week, the men's and women's basketball squads will prepare for the Conference USA basketball championship tournament in Frisco, Texas.

The program announced they would push their home series against Charlotte to Saturday and Sunday, instead of their originally scheduled Friday-Saturday games.

Citing concerns with travel due to the winter storm that hit the southern states this week, both UTEP men's and women's basketball games against Florida Atlantic have been pushed from their original Friday-Saturday games.

The Miners needed a split against a quality team but fell short of the feat, as UAB dominated the slumping road team on Saturday (75-60) to sweep the series.

A trio of Miners scored 20 or more points, as they outlasted Rice 101-89 for their second consecutive win.

One of the consistent issues for the UTEP men's basketball program in the past decade has been their inconsistent play in Conference USA.
