UTEP Football: Josh Fields signs with UTEP

It was described as a signing day surprise by Sean Kugler, but highly regarded El Paso running back Josh Fields is officially a Miner.

“We’re very excited about this young man.” Kuger said of Fields. “I really feel he’s the best player in El Paso. He’s probably the most qualified player that we have recruited to take over an offense since Aaron Jones.”

Fields, a 247Sports three-star prospect ran for 1,000 yards in each of his three varsity seasons at Americas, and is one of the most productive backs to ever play prep ball in El Paso.
