THIS JUST IN:
The Miners have formally accepted an offer into the Mountain West Conference for all sports starting in 2025.
UTEP is finally leaving CUSA after 19 years, per source.
*context*
The New Mexico State Advertising team placed this billboard a few miles off UTEP’s campus. A lot of folks in El Paso were a little upset about this.
UTEP answers back by buying the billboard space on other side with a message of their own.
This has to be the worst broadcast I’ve ever seen for a UTEP game.
- No Audio
- Picture Quality is awful
- Cameraman is moving all over the place giving me motion sickness
From earlier in the month but Aaron Jones letting the rest of the world know where the BEST Mexican food is found.
Shoutout to #️⃣3️⃣3️⃣ for always giving the 915 some love! ❤️

Can confirm that UTEP Basketball star Tae Hardy has been “quietly” hanging out with Taylor Swift over the past few weekends, per source.
I’ve been told he has asked her to perform at the Sun Bowl, still waiting on confirmation from her manager and Sun Bowl execs.

This one definitely hurts but so proud of how hard

The fact that we are able to see them compete in the CUSA Title game for the first time since 2011 is definitely a step in the right direction for this program.
Good luck in the tourney!…
