Cowen could not make this go away!

I will just bring up two documented numerical facts:

1997 & 1998

Put my name on this letter/petition. Changes must be made now. I hope that the media can now see with this communication that Cowen & Dickson are not held in high regard any longer by many Tulane faithful. New administrative blood is needed immediately if these two can not come around to our le...

Mike, do any of us have ANY influence? I do not think that the admin cares at all about the views of its alumni & fan base. A guy like me just can not drive down there (from B.R., LA) on a whim and politic for someone the way the local NOLA alumni can. Anyway, for what it is worth, I do not kno...

Why would you not Go out and pay 1.2-1.5 mil for either RR or ML? You say you want the best for this program, well here is your chance to give it the best. Tulane will become successful under either of these guys....and even if they are not, you still showed commitment by hiring the BEST out there....

are in coaching right now, and how many have extensive years of coaching experience? List anyone that you can think of. We should be able to compile a good list of candidates from that, shouldn't we? Dickson comes out with the "national search" line to make it appear that he really knows ...

I was at Tulane from 1970-1974. Three winning seasons, two bowl appearances, and what should have been the rebirth of a storied football program. Excellent players that included Rick Kingrea, Ray Hester, Joe Bullard, Steve and Mike Foley, Charlie Hall, and many others. I thought that it really was ...

Can somebody help to speed up Dickson's application for his next AD job? Would Tulsa take him? Please, somebody say "Yes"! Promote Chad Sutter to head baseball coach. Yeah, I know, you pro-Schloss advocates have something else in mind. I just do not think it would be wise for Schloss to l...

SCHLOSS --- SCHLOSS -- SCHLOSS!!! Sorry, I am almost 60 now. My keyboarding skills are fading.

Would anyone think that it would be OK to mention this board on a LinkedIn account? There is a LinkedIn Tulane professional group sitting out there as I post this. I recently posted a discussion about whether Cowen and Dickson should remain in their positions as Prez and AD of Tulane. Of course, I ...

I have kept up with Tulane athletics for about FIFTY YEARS now. Since I am a military veteran, I understand the value of leadership in an organization. For DECADES, this university has suffered from a LACK of leadership. Cowen has kept that lack of leadership trend continuing during his time here. ...

Welcome aboard. There are many of us over here who got tired of the YOGWF cr@p. Steve runs a fair board over here. Again, welcome. Im a former member of yogwf. I was getting tired of my post getting deleted(Jts and greeniebacker) everytime i was trying to be honest about the direction of the progra...

I guess that I should keep my head up as some would suggest. If you look at the current (10/02/2011) standings, you could say that there is still a long way to go, and Tulane (by some miracle) still has time to regroup and turn it around, perhaps still be able to qualify for a bowl game. C*USA Conf...

If they do, then I hope that it is not to extend Toledo another year!

If only that were really possible.

This was always going to be a temp stop for Toledo into his retirement. I just wish that they had forced him to retire at 62, rather than waiting for him to approach 65. I wonder if Toledo has connections to help Dickson line up his next gig (which I hope will occur very soon). Maybe this was the r...

It is GREAT to have you with us, Mike! As the author of the "open letter," I will be the first to say that I am not infallible. However, I cannot understand how anyone who looks at Tulane athletics can find much good going on in the last 10 to 15 years. The thousands upon thousands of emp...
