Re: Thoughts on a day at the Ladies Basketball Game

We have no shortage of lawyers on this board who know employment law better than me, particularly in Louisiana. But if the contract was to coach basketball and the employer says "to get paid you have to give up basketball and become a fundraiser" I'd expect that's a breach of contract on ...

If I were in her shoes, I wouldn't take that offer. I'd let them fire me and pay out the contract.

He’s in an organization that’s loaded with pitching. If the big league club doesn’t win 100 games this season I’d be surprised, even playing in the killer AL East.

i would have to look at rule. i think your interpretation is wrong but i also think umpires are reluctant to call having been a d1 soccer ref myself. Think all you want, you are wrong. Sorry.

Re: ULL Series

It’s definitely a good enough start for those of us that had written off Jay Uhlman and Tulane Baseball to reconsider. It’s also noted that we scheduled a weekend series against a team that’s typically pretty good, and could be an in-state rival. I’ll be more impressed with a series win this weekend...

Our new Strength and Conditioning Coach, Rusty Whitt, is a very impressive man. I know Kurt Hester was a real hero for our Wave. But Whitt will be equally impacting the S...

Re: WSU Game Thread

The game has been over for 7 hours or longer. The fact that there’s no final score posted speaks volumes. I assume the Wave won based upon Smythe’s post. But the lack of interest in Hunter’s team should be a signal to Harris.

Re: Has Hunter lost his players?

I don't think they've quit on Hunter but I also don't think they trust him as a coach. And we're becoming that team that is the one that always has opponents pissed off and frequently skirmishing. I fear what may happen if we're getting blown out in an AAC Tournament game. We have bad blood with man...

Washington? I thought he transferred to UNLV! Is he the Huskies version of Trey Williams? Or (switching sports) Frank Harris (7th year UTSA QB who is finally out of eligibility).
