No. Why would he "hate" Tulane?

I don't think he hates Tulane but he is an LSU homer. I don't really pay him much attention. He's just some guy working for a small newspaper.

After reading his columns, there's no doubt the guy is on LSU's payroll.

Pretty much true.... today's news.

The Advocate overtakes The Times-Picayune as Louisiana's largest newspaper :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Also akin to being the skinniest kid at fat kid camp. They are both dying, but the Advocate is managing end of life so much better.

He's an LSU cheerleader as are most of the Times Pic Your Nose writers.

I've yet to see him write anything negative about Tulane and its recruiting. Most all of it is positive and complimentary to our recruits and our coaches recruiting. The only thing he said even remotely negative is after Oshea Dugas committed to La.Tech over us that Tulane needs to go about recruiting OL in a different way b/c we haven't been as successful getting the linemen we want as we should be. He writes about LSU a lot b/c 99% of his readership is LSU fans.

Leave. The guy alone. We get zero coverage on Tulane versus LSU A&M. Anything he gives us great!

Well, truth be told, print circulation is almost meaningless. Nola.com, according to Quantcast gets about 5-6 million uniques per month. The New Orleans Advocate gets about 300-500 thousand a month.

I still disagree with all of you. Tulane could recruit a top class and he would still ignore us. Just my opinion

He is not a Tulane hater. LS U A&M gets the top 25recruits in the state every year and Tulane picks up the dregs with La. Tech,U La La and Southern Miss. A fact. Only Mack Brown could recruit against LSU. He covers the winners,leaders and the majority of the fans/population in Louisiana that support their flagship public institution. A fact of life. Google " 2015 247 Sports Louisiana Recruiting " for ranking and listing of top Louisiana recruits and universities they committed to as I commented about above.

Duper there is no banning on this site. If people want to see him go away they just simply need to quit feeding the troll and stop responding to him.

------Well what you say is pretty accurate---but the ability differences in the top 50 players is not that much---the problem is that the other P5s come in and sign them---If the state G5s could get these kids it would be a lot closer in the end product---just like there are misses on kids coming in, there are the ones that come from the G5s that play in the pros!!!

Who really cares about James Smirh. If you do not like him particularly as I also do not just ignore him. Bringing him up on this site just gives him more exposure.
