Re: Tulane basketball signings.. The White elephant in the r

This situation just stinks IMO!! We get called out as an embarrassing Bball program by the C7 and how do we respond.....losing half the team after an amazing 6-10 campaign in conference including I believe 1 away victory. Follow that up with keeping the coach, losing your assistant and signing avera...

Re: Yulman Stadium (Benson Field)

Hmmm...are others slowly starting to see the same picture that I've been seeing? There just is precious little room for expansion -- I wouldn't be expecting any expansion, unless maybe some small expansion, say, with something like suites, etc. There's precious little room at that site for a decent...

Re: Rick Jones

Going to be a rebuilding year IMO. A winning season will be tough. I see pitching being better if the injured return to their former ways. But counting on freshman in the field and hitting is too much. It's a long season and freshman usually hit a wall and fade out about the time CUSA play starts. ...

Re: Yulman Stadium (Benson Field)

"$70M, State of the art stadium" is an oxymoron. It's like saying I just bought a brand new, state of the art car for $5K. Further, the report also suggests that the stadium is entirely funded via donations, which we know to be factually incorrect since there is the bond issuance that we'...

No more $500,000 salaries to Jones or $350,000 to Lisa for taking us nowhere. Both are lazy in recruiting. Do a lower base sala...

Not sure if GreenWave is doing his job effectively or adding to the problems by making excuses.

On the other hand, trying to diminish the damage could be a more appropri...

I've said this numerous times, but if you intend to remain in New Orleans or South Louisiana for the long haul it makes more economic sense to go to LSU. You'll make way more long term connections that will help you get a job from NOLA to Houston and spend way less money. A LSU law degree will get ...
