VOL. 103, NO. 6 THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT EL PASO OCTOBER 3, 2017 What’s BringBring backback thethe ‘90s‘90s to come of UTEP Homecoming Issue football? BY ADRIAN BROADDUS The Prospector If you were to tell anyone who knows the slightest thing about UTEP football that at the start of the season Athletic Director Bob Stull would re- tire, Sean Kugler would resign aft er starting 0-5—fi ring off ensive coordi- nator Brent Pease along the way—and Mike Price, 71, would come out of re- tirement to serve as the interim head coach, they would say that you are probably ridiculous. Well that ridiculousness has turned into a reality. Aft er UTEP lost its fi ft h consecutive game this past Saturday to Army 35- 21, Stull and Kugler mutually agreed that it would be best for Kugler to re- sign as head coach of the program. Kugler played for the Miners in the ‘80s and served as an assistant coach in the ‘90s. UTEP hired him for his fi rst head coaching position, in which he coached a grim 18-36 record in four and almost a half a season. Currently, the Miners have been outscored by their opponents 226-72 and were ranked last in the FBS in of- fense and rushing yards last week. Th is is the fi rst time since 1992 that the Miners are 0-5. Th roughout these fi ve games, he used words like “disappointing” and “tough loss” repeatedly. He told the media that he would never give up on his team as long as he was the head coach. During the weekly press conference on Monday, Oct. 2, Stull stated that he didn’t have some sort of grand plan to fi re Kugler aft er a rough start, con- trary to popular speculation. Kugler resigned on his own aft er an extensive meeting with Stull. “I didn’t wake up (Sunday) morning expecting to be in this situation,” Stull said. “I don’t believe in making chang- es until the end of the season. But no one cares more for UTEP than Sean… We agreed the best thing for him to do was to step down.” During the weekly press conference, Stull fi rst said that it would be a “50- 50” chance they would hire someone internally, then quickly corrected him- self aft er, saying it would be a “85 per- cent” chance they would.

  • 2018 CONFERENCE USA (In Alpha Order) CUSA Is at Tier Two, Meaning There Are No Individual Team Sheets and No Game by Game Rush Data Or Rush Stat Plays Tabulated
    2018 CONFERENCE USA (in alpha order) CUSA is at tier two, meaning there are no individual team sheets and no game by game rush data or rush stat plays tabulated. CSUA EAST Charlotte Each year I “publish” my bottom five coach report. Brad Lambert made the list last year and proceeded to “lead” his team to one win! Blame the staff? Lambert cleaned house, firing both coordinators and firing and demoting other assistants. 18 starters return. Lose again and it will be clear where the next change will occur. AREAS TO WATCH: Charlotte loses just two WR’s, a center and one LB from the ’17 starting lineup. This will be a heavily veteran team. Their QB hit 47.7% last year. In 7-12 games the point O was 14 or less. I like the lead RB. The new offensive coordinator was productive at Youngstown St. Charlotte intercepted just two passes in ’17! With ten returning starters this will change. They have 25 defensive sacks in their last 24 games. The run D was below average and the pass D was over 69%. They’ll improve, but to what extent. Glenn Spencer was decent as the defensive coordinator at Oklahoma St. This seems like a splash hire. All three kickers return but they combined to go 4-13 last year. ‘18 PREVIEW: Last year in this spot I said to post check their stats vs. Eastern Michigan. The stats were not pretty. Let’s hope they improve with this depth opening up vs. 4-7 Fordham. Games 2-4 are hosting App.

  • Broncos Combine Notes: Billy Turner Remains on Radar, but Not Antonio Brown by Mike Klis 9NEWS Feb
    Broncos combine notes: Billy Turner remains on radar, but not Antonio Brown By Mike Klis 9NEWS Feb. 26, 2019 As the Broncos contingent led by John Elway convene on Indianapolis this week for the NFL Combine, there will be two orders of business. One, is getting a feel for free agency. Two is scouting and interviewing up to 60 rookie prospects for the upcoming NFL Draft. Elway beat just about all Broncos to Indianapolis as he began NFL competition meetings on Monday. Adding some form of replay to subjective judgment calls like the pass interference missed in the NFC Championship Game was discussed Monday, although it was characterized as a scratch-the-surface informational meeting. Here are some topics of interest for Broncos fans this week: Antonio Brown The Broncos aren’t interested in the Steelers’ controversial receiver. Among the non-starters is Brown wants to renegotiate his current contract that pays him $15.125 million in 2019; $11.3 million in 2020 and $12.5 million in 2021. To pay that kind of money, AND give up a high-round draft pick – AND have to pay even more to keep Brown happy? It doesn’t make sense. The Broncos need another veteran receiver to add to their group that includes Emmanuel Sanders coming off an Achilles injury, Courtland Sutton, DaeSean Hamilton and Tim Patrick. But it won’t be Antonio Brown. John Brown would make more sense. He developed a strong receiver-quarterback relationship with Joe Flacco in Baltimore last season. From what I've been told, the Broncos are not scared off by John Brown’s sickle cell trait, and a source close to Brown says the receiver is not afraid of Denver’s mile-high altitude as a possible home -- provided the team expresses interest.
