When Dannen says essentially - thank you for your service, we'll now try to be one of the top teams in the country - one gets the idea there was some force behind the resignation.
Any word on the golf coach? Lord that is a disaster.

I get the idea that both were forced out. Both were RD hires that probably hadn’t won enough recently. However I would have kept RD holdover Terri Sisk from a few years ago. I thought she had things going in the right direction for Women’s tennis. Just a guess but I predict two females will end up filling those new coaching spots.

This is very unfortunate. Wayne is a great coach. After 6 years with the worst pay and worst budget in the conference it has paid its toll. The program was in the top 20 the past 3 years. This year injuries knocked them out of the top 20. Tulane lost a great one. Not sure what is expected with no support and leasing terrible off campus courts. Expectations should match the investment. Holly clearly exceeded.

We're compliant, right?
Our toes touch the line.

I would suspect that the #1 volleyball coach gave at least an okay on this. If so, so be it.

A 59% cumulative winning percentage How does that compare to Jewett's cumulative winning percentage?

It would be interesting for Tulane to track a "cost per win" statistic, for all sports, and for all AAC teams. While It wouldn't justify Tulane's historical lack of investment model, it would enable us to get a better handle on which coaches perform and which coaches don't perform, within Tulane's self-imposed limitations.
