Holtz on UTEP

------

"If that transfer quarterback is a good player, they're going to be somebody to watch," Wilder said. "If Aaron Jones is healthy, whoa man. That kid would have gone for 2,000 yards if he stayed healthy. He's special."
-------

"If I had to pick a team that I think has a chance to really make an impact, I would say, from where they were a year ago, I would say it would be UTEP," Holtz said.

"That would be my surprise team."

Oh hope all of this is true.

Holtz called USM last year. Good sign for the Miners.

I really like UTEP and always for them except against us.

Aw man, its not the Holtz I thought you were talking about.

Well, the younger Holtz is much closer to the situation in C-USA so I'm glad he's thinking the Miners will be good. The older Holtz wouldn't know a Miner from a Niner.

But he has something that no CUSA coach has: A national championship...

Here's hoping the Miners win 10 a year for the next 25 seasons. Picks up!

Well that's easy to understand. They're both old farts walking around with pick axes.

I love UTEP, I love having UTEP in our conference, I love their stadium, and I love the relationship between UTEP and Southern Miss.

Rock on, boys.

I was just joking. I know who the young Holtz is. I hope he staying in CUSA. He's a good one.

Yes he is. Some very good coaches in this league and I hope that Kugler will be considered one of them in time. Lots to prove yet.
