I wish they would do a spell check before posting something like that. What does "NFOR" mean?

I have visions of parents madly texting their kids to skip classes and start practicing half-court shots.

The game is at 6 on ESPNU. Tulsa is favored by 7. Could tonight be the night? Tulsa has had problems on the road in conference. Missing their girls on the big night. Over looking the Wave? Can MD get tit done? Glad I have plans. BTW, The Cure Bowl Champs get honored at the game tonight.Maybe that will inspire us to victory.

Seconds before tipoff. Smallest crowd I’ve seen at a home game.

There is almost nobody there— a precursor of next season with MD. Two really bad teams—turnovers and missed shots galore. Tulsa looks so bad, we might have a chance tonight.

I hope Dannen is at the game, and soaking up the exciting environment created by an empty arena. A glimpse into the future.

I wish I was there- I’d berate and drag my cousins who are currently enrolled at Tulane and go win that free tuition. Hell, I’d go by myself. . . I could always use a free masters degree

If Dannen is driving Dunleavy home after this disgrace he should fire MD as they pull up to MD's house.

This is Devlin 2-3 minutes before tipoff. A few people showed up during the Star Spangled Banner and the entire football team came for the Care Bowl acknowledgement at halftime.

Someone had a very clever idea to attract students to the game. This inflatable is located on the McAllister walkway by the student entrance to Devlin. Everyone crossing Freret has to walk under it. I believe that many (most?) students are unaware of basketball games.

Another 20+ point beat down, this time at home, by another bad team—giving Tulsa their first conference win on the road. Tulane and MD are the elixir that cures any opponent’s ills.

The undergrads I know are basketball fans and some are former HS players and they are very aware of the Green Wave. That’s why they aren’t going to the games.

" The only thing we have to fear, is fear itself"....MD will be fine, he will have Tulane in the Big Dance next year and the Final Four in two years, way too much overreaction to the play and the results that have been seen and recorded...that said, there is no border crsiis, unless your state borders Mexico, Opioids are a passing fad,and MS-13 is not a "gang", but a service organization

this is the first game, that if available on TV, I did not watch or record. I can give no commentary on the performance of the team but the takeaway from the peripheral activities is pretty powerful.

A marketing strategy aimed directly at the students with the free tuition giveaway couldn't draw any interest. This free lottery ticket isn't worth the pain to sit thru a half of basketball.

Introducing the bowl champion football team to an empty arena has to be demoralizing for the football team. We struggle to get fan support at football games and this team, that is to be recognized, walks in and are immediately reinforced with one of the biggest negatives of playing for Tulane, fan support. They must have thought it was a big waste of time and that there is no love for any athletics.

Not a good night for TD.

Well said! Can you imagine how everyone on the team felt? What the hell am I doing at Tulane. I hope Dannen was there. Unbelievable! Only at Tulane. Every person there must have felt complete embarrassment except perhaps Dunleavy.
