Re: Fire Dannen

Does Slatten have a show or something on WWL? Just wondering, as I didn't think WWL talked Tulane much.
Anyway if he has Fitts' ear, which he might, it could mean something.
But then I'm not sure Fitts is much more than a figurehead at this point.

I agree we shouldn't be giving out unwarranted extensions. But you are absolutely wrong when you say that alone will cure the problems and we don't need a great commitment. Those lack of facilities are apparent to all candidates. The lack of facilities commitment has taken us from a top stepping st...

Re: Next Wave of Re-Alignment

I might be in the minority, but we lost a big rivalry in Houston that would help fill Yulman Stadium every other year. Money is big, also perception is.

Re: ULL stepping up big time with HC salary

ULL takes far and away the largest rake from the general fund among the state schools. ULL is betting they can make a move now.
I doubt it works, but we'll see. But one thing is for sure, their fans will blame Tulane if it doesn't.

With the diminishing appeal of the AAC, watch for the coaching staff to move more quickly to other programs. I would not be surprised if Chip Long is not one and done. If we finish the season 7-5 or better, Willie be gone. Like whom? What programs would they move to after this season that they woul...

Nice story! Wish Arnie was our AD. We need a schmoozer to raise moola! As a New Orleanian, he would have had a real connection to Tulane. Maybe it can still happen? I think Benson blocked him. Tom no longer around so there’s a chance. I wish that link still worked that described his plan. That's ri...
