Miner football and basketball have always had swag

Throughout the university’s history, UTEP has ventured through many different athletic uniforms. Both basketball and football have showcased some of the best and worst jerseys that the school has seen. Below, we highlight some of the best ones in program history.

Remember the old Paydirt Pete, who looked like something straight out of a Disney cartoon? That same mascot was showcased on every helmet for the Miners in the 1980s. Coincidentally, the ‘80s featured some of the best UTEP football teams that the university had seen. Coached by Bob Stull, the Miners turned a sub-par program into something respectable.
