Sad times. USA should be able to jump in their spot and pick up some of their players. We need WR's and DLmen. But I doubt if enough of UAB credits are transferable to Tulane.

thanks golfnut this article reminds me of both Tulane (on SC turning down the money outside of TAF) and UNO when it battled LSU's board for years during their run in basketball. http://www.al.com/sports/index.ssf/2014/12/uab_booster_believes_killing_f.html#incart_big-photo that second article is vin...

Very good win. Most athletic team we've played so far. What makes you think so? Just curious. I've seen every team we've played so far. Tenn Tech had the best team speed and athleticism and they also had good size. We played a good game and that's the only reason we won. Had we played like we did a...

Bo was 8-17 against teams that were ranked.

Most of Tulane's issues are self inflicted, very little of them arose from LSU trying to hold Tulane down. At least in the last 25-30 years. Exactly right that nearly all of TU's issues have been self-inflicted. And going back well beyond the past 25-30 years. Yes, for sure, it was a big day in 197...

Wouldn't be surprised to see LSU's Frank Wilson's name pop up in this search.

Another SC over there. UAB became bowl eligible for the first time in 10 years this past weekend. Even if they survive this it is going to kill their recruiting for years to come . Did Cowen sneak up to Birmingham and take over as UAB President (while nobody was looking) ?? If we happen to hear the...

LSU's Athletic Programs make money. For the last 5+ years the Athletic Department has actually donated millions of dollars into the schools academic budget to help alleviate state funding cuts. Other issues that have led or are leading to LSU's increasing dominance over Tulane are TOPS, the constan...

Did anyone mention that LSU is a state-run school that benefits from massive taxpayer-funded suibsidies? That wouldn't have anything to do with its emphasis on athletics, would it? Nah. +1 Yep a lot of LSU coaches on the top of the public dole........ 2012 data. Just higher for 2014... http://www.t...

Interesting. We have been underdogs in every game now (no line on SELA) except UCONN.

UAB has been sabotaged by the University of Alabama for so many years now. They rejected the contract UAB had agreed to with Jimbo Fisher back in 2007 and then rejected a $75 million bid for an on campus stadium after that. UAB never really had a chance with the inbreds at Tuscaloosa making decisio...

Unforunately all we can do as Tulane fans is celebrate the past.

Exactly!

Our QB play last season was horrible. Absolutely horrible. We win 10 games with just avg QB play against that weak schedule. Lee has been up and down. Yes mostly down against a much tougher schedule. However when he's up he plays very well and is much better than what the other two can do if they ar...

Morgan and Bussey are out there. Bussey was committed here at one time, Morgan supposedly had us in his Final 3. If I had to guess we have an outside shot on Morgan and little to no shot on Bussey. In all honesty, we need a WR, CJ was a WR Coach, he had us in his Final 3, CJ needs to pull something...

Both open again.

Congrats to ex-Wave assistant Kellie Kennedy who's doing another excellent job for the Pack!

He won't win there either.

Very good win. Most athletic team we've played so far.

This 1973 game may have been the "9th" best for NO sports overall, but to a true TU fan with the years of age required to have the perspective, it was undoubtedly "#1". I was there in 1973, as well as 1979, 1981, 1982 1998... All were loads of fun, but none compared to 1973 in m...

Somehow I suspect that there are more than a few in the TU community who want to cling to these views of "...recruiting criminals and academic non-qualifiers is not the way that Tulane will succeed in the AAC and certainly not the way to position the program for a possible move upwards....&quo...

Tech just beat SEC's 9th ranked Georgia 30-24 in Athens. Tech will play Fla. St for the ACC title game. This game was so frickin entertaining. Sloppy, but entertaining. Three fumbles inside the five yard line in goal-to-go situations, two blocked fieldgoals, an accidental onside kick (and recovery)...

this weekend. Lol
GT over UGA
Clemson over SC
UL over UK
