Re: F.A.S.T. (Fans Against Small Time athletics)
I've always liked the billboard idea... just have no idea as to the costs involved. Well into 5 figures. Social Media campaigns cost nothing and will be seen by 95% of Tulane alums rather than a billboard which will be seen by 5% of Tulane alumni. Just saying... But the idea is to really embarrass ...

If Cowen and the Board of Admin has to be embarrassed before they will act, then let's start a pool and get enough money to put up "Two "Billboards" actually knocking them in public..I would suggest we move to post them a week or two after recruiting day in Feb, so we don't lose any c...

Re: Stadium Capacity ( 21K, 23K, 25K, 5K SRO ??? )
Let's try and keep this thread on topic. Aren't we supposed to be getting more stadium details this month??? Watched the Arizona vs Toledo game Saturday night. Commentators showed Arizona's commitment to football with their drawing of their new stadium, much larger than ours. I didn't catch if they...

Re: Uniforms
We had sky blue helmets back in 1964. They had a hangman's noose on the side in honor of our competitive defense known as the POSSE, ( much like LSwho had the chineese bandits).. .....I thought they gave the team a nice contrast with the green field........Sky Blue helmets, Alabama style single whit...

Does not appear Coach CJ is going to change our uniforms.

I totally agree with your thinking, and just another reason for Cowen/Dickson to take a step back and see what develops, before rushing into a small OCS....If things don't turn around as most of us believe it will, now that we have done a 180, then they can build the stadium...It doesn't have to be ...

Re: Official Curtis Johnson Assistant Coach/Staff Thread
Could it possibly be that we lost these two players to La. Tech because they didn't meet the Tulane Model Standards? Obviously they met the NCAA standard!!! Just maybe it was the Tulane Model after all. Coaches can't take the SAT/ACT test for potential players...
