UTEP cans OC

[Coach Bill Lewis]

Pease was given his walking papers.  Kugler is not long for this world either.  Tough times "out in that west Texas town of El Paso."

I think we're seeing that a 3 yards and a cloud of dust team is not going to be competitive at the G5 level anymore.

Agree 100%.

I feel bad for Kugler.  Seems like a good guy.  But he adopted the Mac philosophy and it is so hard to make that work at the G5 level.

I disagree,  just have to be innovative in how you do that.  Army, navy, New Mexico State all disagree.

New Mexico State has never made anything work.

I assume he means New Mexico (UNM), not NMSU.

No doubt, but teams don't have the opportunity to prepare properly because the system is so different than what they're used to.
