Re: Tulane playing LSU

I hope it draws well and raises a lot of money but being on Halloween night I seriously doubt that will happen. Yep. Especially if you have kids or grandkids that want to trick or treat on Halloween. You can do both with a little planning. Sunset is about 615pm even with CDT. Exhibition tipoff is a...

Re: Massey Composite Rankings Tulane and the AAC

Win, Thanks for catching FBS slip. Life was easier with 1A and 1AA. I was referring in general to some of the "Woe is Us" posts by some here not to your specific analysis of FIU game. Personally I have no strong feeling here and would not bet on it. Fourteen points is alot but I do expect ...

Re: Massey Composite Rankings Tulane and the AAC

Not yet. We are getting better but as Fritz himself has said we have a long way to go. Again you don't have just good and bad team categories to lump teams in with. I'd put us at average right now. Do you think we are a good team? These guys think Tulane is a good team (or rather slightly above ave...

Re: COACH WF BUZZ

Finally, let's keep in mind not only are SC/RD gone but Tulane Board today is the most athletic friendly and supportive board in decades from Chair on through multiple NFL/pro team owners and investors, et al. Might be wrong as to their walking the talk, but my faith is in that. We'll see.

Finally on a separate point: I'm sanguine about Ops Bldg fund raising status even though it is under-publicized at moment. If Tulane truly wants it, it will happen. But proof will be when ground breaking starts.

Re: COACH WF BUZZ

Fritz is 57. So if he's going to leave for a P5 he will do it sooner than later as his age is clearly a factor and only gets worse with time. A big factor ,if this season continues its upward trend, is our fundraising for the football operations building. If he sees significant movement there that ...

Re: Tulane destroys the Hurricane- 62-28

By the way, did you notice just how deep we went on the bench? PJ Hurst got QB time, Miles Strickland, Andrew Zuckerman and even Jared Bertrand got rushing carries. If we had stuck with our starters the whole game, we would have been in the 70's easy. It was great that WF played them. Most of us kn...

Well, at Tulane, you're either talking about the head football coach leaving, or getting fired. Par for the course. Sorry but that's true for every sports coaching/managing job in the sports world.

Re: Tulane destroys the Hurricane- 62-28

Things needing improvement were: The personal foul penalties. They need to be eliminated. Lucky we were able to overcome them against Tulsa. And another missed PAT. That makes 4 misses in 5 games. No wonder we don’t try FG’s. Got outscored again in the 2nd half. (Grambling only team we outscored). ...

Good catch. thanks. It's been a while since Tulane signed a guy from I-90 corridor. Only a junior so this story has time to percolate. Good for Fritz and MD to be ahead of the curve on this one on potential cooperation.

As concerns question about Scott potentially going back to LSU after a sojourn in JC ranks, it does occasionally happen. Supposedly Banks was re-recruited by KSU.
