Re: 2017 commit - OLB K. J. Vault, Hoover HS, Birmingham

i wish most of you would quit trying to make excuses and trying to make scenarios where these recruits are better then what they are. The bottom line is that so far Fritz first recruiting class is pathetic. Their is no way we are going to get Big XII invite with these recruits. Yes and No. The 2017...

Re: Big XII Expansion

Golfnut, I believe you are wrong about other lesser P5 schools not wanting us seated at the big boys table. There is no way we are ever going to affect Iowa State or Kansas, let alone Kansas State or Georgia Tech's apparel sales even if we were to become a consistent double digit winner year in and ...

Re: Big XII Expansion

Looking at those rankings and I see the ghosts of Cowen and Dickson. Damned them! If they had even worked for mediocrity we'd be a viable candidate. It is like they have exiled Tulane from big time athletics forever. I hope I am wrong, but the damage may be irreversible. Especially with your consta...

Re: Facilities Improvements

At the "Let's Talk Football" meeting last night what was said about our efforts to gain entry into the BIG XII ? Words ? Eye contact/avoidance ? Body language ? Declined to answer question(s) ? What was said about recruiting ? Would have thought those two topics would be on everyone's minds.

Re: Dannen and fritz

We're talking relativity here. No one expects our coaches to recruit to Top Ten teams at this time. We are talking about recruiting in the top tier of the "sixth best" conference and we are failing miserably.

Re: Beaten again for a Louisiana QB (3*QB picks ULL over Tulane)

I think ppl are going to use the offense we are running against us until it actually is seen in action. We are also lacking locally on the staff from a recruiting standpoint. It's going to take a bit to turn it all around. Shouldn't be the case if he was able to do much better at GSU which actually...

Re: Big XII Expansion

Feelin' the love.

What a refreshing turn of events. We have an Athletics Department that apparently is very effectively working at multiple target audiences to spread the good words on us and make our admittance more likely and more palatable.

Congratulations to our Tulane staff.

Re: QB Commit: Kaylan Wiggins, Sanford, FL

Unless Wiggins was lied to in the recruiting process, it seems like he will be a QB for us. He had his heart set on being a QB and Tulane recruited him to play that position. http://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/florida-recruiting/blog/os-sanford-seminole-qb-kaylan-wiggins-finds-right-fit-at-tulan...

I would spin it a little different. It would give us a reputation for a good coach to get out of Dodge ASAP. For those who have succeeded here, it has been a very good and very quick spring board: Think Pittman, Smith, Brown and Bowden. Some of the others have still enjoyed some success elsewhere a...
