I like that. It’s not an easy thing to get the city behind Tulane.

I like it....in hindsight, the metro NOLA players should have had their hi school jersey's on and displaying their Tulane Jersey, or vice versa...or shown with their high school jersey, and putting on a Tulane jersey...it would have given the "connection' more pop

1- Win
2- Retain this staff & AD for as long as possible
3- "Fix" the West side of Yulman (40k+ the current television optics are pathetic)
4- Schedule regional & historical SEC teams for home & home
5- Revive Southern Miss
6- Revive LSU
Locals will show up & we'll have more than a dozen players from NOLA.

Is there enough room/area on the WEST side to handle any "fix" ???

as i understand it is not a "room/space" issue...it is a "height" issue...the NIMBY's (and this is no joke) complained it it was built to the same height as the east side, it would block with their "sunsets"....now, u figure that one out !!

They can certainly add over there but that side is pressed pretty close to the property line. The addition would add probably 3,000 seats like the upper deck has on the east side.

my suggestion was to add seats, but to circumvent the height issue, use the rest of the vertical space as Football Offices and match the height of other buildings on campus or the height of the east side of Yulman

Maybe my response wasn't clear but I was referring to adding a deck on the west side the same height as the east side.

If we were to do that, and have the upper deck be the same size as the existing lower level on the west side, it would hold a whole lot more than 3k. The west side is much bigger than the east.

It does, but only if you live on the West Bank of the Miss. River and you are facing to the WEST!

That depends upon your consumption level of alcohol on a daily basis.
