Good Deed from UTEP Basketball Coach

[Mean Green 93-98]

Quote

Most of the Pittsburgh Panthers were able to make it to El Paso, Texas in time for the upcoming Sun Bowl against the UCLA Bruins. However, three Panthers ran into some serious travel issue. In an odd twist of fate, UTEP basketball coach Joe Golding actually played hero for those three players, who all got stranded in Dallas.

. . . Pitt head coach Pat Narduzzi thanked Golding for making sure three of his players were able to arrive in time for practice. Narduzzi said three of his players' Christmas Day flights out of Dallas were delayed. At that point, Golding heard what was happening and let them ride with him and his family back to El Paso.

Will he give UNT fans a game to the basketball game in El Paso? I can meet at the most convenient Buc-ee's for him.
