Rodney Terry

Texas interim head coach Rodney Terry, who spent three seasons as the Miners' head coach, will face his former star guard at UTEP in Souley Boum and the Xavier Musketeers on Friday evening in the Sweet 16.

With Chris Beard suspended without pay and his coaching future up in the air, Rodney Terry could end up with a chance to lead Texas basketball this season.

Bryson Williams, a two-time All-Conference USA forward, has elected to transfer from the UTEP men's basketball team as a graduate transfer.

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 familiar issues of long scoring droughts, lack of defense, and inability to adjust after halftime were on full display for UTEP in their loss to St. Mary's.

With the addition of Oklahoma sophomore Jamal Bieniemy, the Miners have freshened up their roster for the upcoming season and filled their biggest hole of the offseason at point guard.
