Re: Dunleavy disaster continues with 16th straight loss to ECU 85-81

30+foul shots for ECU and 20+ turnovers for Tulane. Can't anybody here coach this game? What makes you think turnovers are a coaching issue? Clearly there are several things coaches do to minimize turnovers. I read an article earlier this year about Purdue Coach Painter's zero tolerance policy duri...

Not sure why anyone is still quoting this asshat or believes he's a fan. He's a troll. He refers to Zhang as the "boy from China", he highlights how well the chemistry is during garbage time of the game, he believes this is MD's first year of coaching (won't acknowledge the same crap we've...

Re: Mike Dunleavy the worst of the worst 100% returning

I feel for the kids on this team. They play hard and deserve better than what Tulane is giving. Yes no question. A complete disaster for those guys. I thought Dunleavy would be similar to Larry Brown but boy was I wrong. I would have never imagined that he’d become the worst coach in Tulane basketb...

Re: Wave destroyed again this time @Memphis 102-76 for its 15th straight loss

Although we do have a chance at home against ECU, it is more likely that we will lose out the rest of the schedule. Then, we can look forward to starting next season with one thing in mind—how long will the losing streak continue? And the annual pre-season scrimmage against Loyola won’t count. At s...

Re: Mike Dunleavy the worst of the worst 100% returning

Some facts since the Death Penalty: - Perry Clark suffered one 20 pt conference loss in his 1st 3 years at Tulane. None in the first year back from the death penalty, which is how we knew that while we were 4-24 (1-15) that we were going to be competitive the following years. - Mike Dunleavy has los...

Re: Mike Dunleavy the worst of the worst 100% returning

This is worse than any other coaching screwup I’ve ever seen at Tulane. And that’s a mouthful. “It has never been a question for me,” said Tulane director of athletics Troy Dannen when asked if men’s basketball coach Mike Dunleavy would return for next season. “100 percent,” said Dannen in a phone ...

Re: Memphis Game 2 Thread

Line is down to 17.5. Oddsshark.com game predictor has us losing 81-68, covering the spread. In conference games with spreads of 11 or more we are 1-5 against the spread. Bigger the spread the less likely we cover. It's hard to believe that only 2 of 13 conference games have been single digit spread...

This makes me sick because I can’t stand Joe Aleva. Old Joe is running circles around Dannen with his hirings and his refusal to play Tulane in baseball Uptown now. His basketball hire Will Wade is now the most loved person on the LSU campus while Mike Dunleavy is the most despised person over here...

It may seem like a broken record but MD keeps adding to the embarrassment that it's impossible to ignore. Most fans on this board want to see a winning program. Simple as that. Most, not all, shared similar thoughts as gbg when MD was hired 3 years ago that MD would be able to turn around the progra...

Re: Zhang

I agree that no single player should be singled out. All of the freshmen have had good moments and bad. While they all show some upside, none has the individual talent to succeed at the D1 level in anything other than a strongly coached, highly structured offensive and defensive system. In other wo...

Re: Houston Crushes Tulane 85-50 makes it 14 straight losses

always good to evaluate players and the team during garbage time of a game. must be the reason for the garbage takes. I will say I was super impressed that we kept the game under a 40 point loss thanks to the final garbage time minutes. good analysis gbg. and I though you were just an idiot troll.

Re: Weekend Basketball Visitors

Will be very curious to see if these recruits see the clubbing that Tulane is getting and say “I can start and make a major impact right away” or “no way am I walking into this dumpster fire”. Very good question. Along with the question, how many of the current players will stay? The answer to both...

Unbelievable that we have been double digit dogs in 8 of 12 conference games. We are 4-4 against the spread in these games. The worse spread the worse we perform. In spreads of 11.or more we are 1-4 against the spread. This will be the 2nd largest spread of the season. We failed to cover the 22 we w...
