Re: Mike Dunleavy is now worst of the worst

I really would love to know what is going on inside Dunleavy’s head. Surely he must see the writing on the wall that he was not meant to be a college basketball coach. He just doesn’t have what it takes to succeed on the college level. Quite frankly he has embarrassed himself and the university thi...

Re: Mike Dunleavy is now worst of the worst

Overall winning pct has fallen to. 296 (24-57). Conference is .178. (8-35 reg season, 0-2 tourney) He's won 1 of the last 17 conference games dating back to last year. That win came against last place USF in Feb 2018. That’s incredible. Didn’t realize it was that bad. Wow. it's really bad and those...

Re: SMU Beats Tulane 85-75

what was with ESPN having us at 4-16. Is it just that obvious that we were going to lose our next 2 games? I know I'm now looking specifically for examples of terrible coaching but 2 things resonated late in the game that was head scratching. 1. there were two runs that SMU had where MD didn't try t...

Re: UCF Whips the Wave 75-50

The job requires recruiting and coaching. Recruiting has been mostly average (compared to the league) and possibly there is some more talented players to come. However the guy cannot coach. I don't care the excuse (injuries, transfers, players he inherited) he is not a good team coach. I'll give som...

Re: SMU Game 2 Thread

Paul was in the doghouse for his technical foul and suspension earlier in the season. In OOC, Paul logged 20 minutes in the best Tulane win of the season against South Dakota St. After that his minutes fell off down to low of 3 minutes in blow out loss to S. Alabama and didn't sniff the court in ou...

Re: Volleyball 2019

Great news. Tulane is making good moves to lock him up now. Incredible improvements and what a 2018 season! Also, the cover up at Baylor was the news going around back when it went down. Heard the same thing. Shameful what happened. Happy Tulane and Coach Barnes made something really good out of it...

Wow. We get a Top 100 commit and all people can do is bitch and moan that the kid isn’t any good and that he likely won’t end up actually signing here anyway. Jeez. yep. with the program in its current state and overwhelming evidence that Dunleavy will never be a winner here, any news that potentia...

Re: MBB lands best recruit since Honeycutt

I was hoping for this caliber of recruit to show up in year 1 or 2 of MD, not in year 5. We bought into MD's NBA experience would attract highly rated players and turn this program around. That said,, while nice to see a verbal from a kid like this, MD has proven that he is an absolutely terrible co...

Re: UCF Whips the Wave 75-50

yep, having a point guard last year with more surrounding talent turned out swimmingly. No doubt MD's failure to recruit a point guard is contributing to getting slaughtered. But we have a nice sample of what to expect when he does have a point guard on the court and it's still terrible.

Re: MBB lands best recruit since Honeycutt

I will say again that Dunleavy has said it takes 6 years to build a program. For better or worse, he is playing the long game. At a minimum, he will be the coach for one more year. I hate losing too but I have never built a college basketball program. Those who have probably know what that are talk...

loving Dunleavy's substitution pattern. sub out a guy when he makes a careless turnover and doesn't take too long before he returns because everyone else has turned it over or forced a stupid shot.

Some additional worst of the worst facts.

These rankings haven't been updated yet for Saturday's ga...

FIRE Mike Dunleavy the worst of the worst in Tulane history

Easily the worst coached Tulane MBB team since the days of Dick Longo in the early 70’s. Longo was fired after two years going 20-32. A record Dunleavy would get extended on today. Sounds like Dick Longo was a better coach! "You are what your record says you are" Bill Parcels. Yep, Dick w...
