UTEP looks for quick transfer help on defensive line

UTEP hoping transfers can shore up defensive line Wochit

The defensive bar at UTEP is never a particularly high one but by any standard 2019 was a struggle for the Miners.

They ranked 13th in Conference USA in total defense and dead last rushing defense, and all hope of improvement depends on getting that fixed.

To that end, UTEP is taking the likely path, hoping an influx of junior college transfers can provide the talent transfusion they need.
