Did UT approve the helmet?   Do all the UT branches have to have the same colors, both UTSA and UTEP have the same colors, just wonder if UT forces that because UTEP use to be burnt orange white back in the day.

I think they all have some shade of orange in common. UT Dallas is orange and green, for example.

getting rid of the horn stripe on their old helmet is a step in the right direction...

They do look alike, but how many variations can one make of a 1970s fella in a cowboy hat? Might as well throw the Dallas Cowboy mascot into this convo.

 

initial internet digging mentions NMSU and Wyoming. No link to the UTEP prospector.

Let's be honest, when you guys were starting your program and the uniforms first came out nobody thought..... looks mighty similar to another UT system school

being honest, nobody cared. still dont, except you apparently.

Sorry. I'm from El Paso and all things UTEP are gross and garbage. Awful school with a trashy fanbase. 

 Thanks two of my kids  graduated from UTEP.   You could not like a place and don't have to be an ass about it

I like it.  I've always got a soft spot in my heart for UTEP thanks to all the time I used to spend out there for work.  I know their fans get a little nutty at the games (Read:  Physically violent), but the city was always so friendly and welcoming, and they do so love their Miners there.

      This is what I call a “growth game.” This is the kind of game Hodge can use the film from to show the team the razor thin margin between winning and losing against the best teams in our league. If we are who we hope we are, our team walks away from this knowing we CAN beat anyone come conference tourney time, we just have to execute.

      plus let's not forget a Haggerty prayer from 30' going in. we're likely not into the foul game in the last minute or so without that bucket

      Great game, Memphis is a good team and this one came down to the end. However I am still baffled by UNT's inability to inbound the ball, this is a trend that has been going on for a few seasons now. There were several times today that they would inbound the ball directly into a corner trap, many of those instances resulted into a turn over.

      Mean Green Fall At No. 21 Memphis, 68-64

      The Mean Green (10-4, 1-1) got a career performance from senior big man Moulaye Sissoko who poured in a career-high 17 points on eight shots and grabbed a game-high eight rebounds in the four-point defeat. North Texas’ Brenen Lorient scored a team-high 18 points and was one of four different Mean Green players to score in double figures. Senior Jasper Floyd had 11 points to go along with a season-high six assists. UNT outrebounded the nationally ranked Tigers (12-3, 2-0) 30-21and forced them into 15 turnovers and just seven assists. “If you have told me we would force them into 15 turnovers and just seven assists and outrebound them by nine I would have really liked our chances,” said head coach Ross Hodge. “But it was that stretch in the second half where we didn’t handle their press well and we ended with 16 turnovers. We’ll regroup together and get better from this together.” The Mean Green have a quick turnaround as they host Rice on Wednesday at Super Pit at 8 p.m. CT. UNT is 8-0 at home this season. The game will be broadcast on the Mean Green Sports Network, presented by Learfield and ESPNU.

Fans can purchase tickets at www.meangreentickets.com or visit the UNT Athletics Ticket Office located at Gate 2 of DATCU Stadium between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.
