Miner Collective - UTEP Miners Collective

Miner Collective launched in October 2022. "We're committed to giving funding to each existing scholarship men's basketball player and we're also wanting to be completely competitive with the upper echelon of Conference USA, Mountain West schools and other schools that have been recently part of Conference USA," co-founder Josh Hunt told 600 ESPN El Paso. "Being competitive in the mid major range of basketball programs is the initial focus. Individual details, still too early to say. We're focused on being competitive to be supportive of the program." Hunt said the collective's focus is initially on men's basketball, although the collective could potentially expand its efforts to other sports in the future.
