Is it irony that after harping for years on players who quit his UTEP program Floyd himself quit just six games into his eighth season? Or is it something else?

The UTEP Men's Basketball teams of the 80s would not have been the same without the legendary Jeep Jackson. His legacy will be honored at this week's game at the Don Haskins Center.

UTEP's kryptonite has proven to be Southern Miss who defeated the Miners 64-56 to advance to the semi finals of the Conference USA Tournament and will face Louisiana Tech.

UTEP remains the only Texas college basketball team with an NCAA championship. That title was won on March 19, 1966, by the legendary Coach Don Haskins and the team of five black players when UTEP was called Texas Western. That win, and Haskins career here in El Paso, made this a college basketball city. When UTEP hired Haskins disciple, Tim FLoyd, hopes were raised that maybe UTEP could win anoth

Fight on, Part Two. A day after my speculation that UTEP head coach Tim Floyd laid into USC's Andy Enfield mostly because of what Enfield's comments in the Men's Journal did to sully the reputation of his city, his school and Floyd himself, Floyd stated that was exactly the point. Then he took it further. A lot further.

UTEP Coach Tim Floyd spoke with the El Paso Times about his team in today's newspaper, and called an ABC7 reporter a meanie!

UTEP head basketball coach Tim Floyd spent three hours meeting with the USC Athletic Director about the head coaching position with the Trojan's.  WHAT THE HECK?
