And again we're on an ESJ QB who'll probably wind up at another position.

Nigel Anderson. QB/RB. East St. John. 6'0 185. http://www.hudl.com/athlete/o/3190607/h ... s/84968384

What are the odds that Tulane's football facilities will be impressive in comparison to the other 3 contenders?

It is criminal that we have CJ and don't plan on giving him the facilities he needs to do his job.

JerseyWave · Tue Mar 04, 2014 7:02 am

Absolutely, without a doubt, CJ wants an IPF. Just look where he held Spring Practice. Unfortunately, Cow/Dick has their own agenda.

Not saying I don't believe you, but can you post a link? I can't find that anywhere.

Thank you! Would be great to land this guy. But It's nice to be in the same conversation with the other 3 schools.

You wonder, why would a kid like this want to go to LSU and sit behind Fournette for three years, or play mop up, when he could be the feature back at Tulane, and probably the top back in the entire conference. Its something he's not likely to achieve in the SEC.

Exactly, but logic isn't something a 16-18 year old kid usually has.

And its not like he won't be seen by the NFL scouts. ex: Matt Forte

Because while there are about 40-50 gamedays, there are also 1500 regular days where student athletes spend most of their time in the other facilities. The fact that Tulane fans ask such questions shows why there is such a disconnect, a seeming unawareness of how the rest of D1A does things.

Meanwhile, the schools we are competing with...

GreenLantern · Tue Mar 04, 2014 5:34 pm

What's wrong with our facilities?

Lucky, I wish people used my name as a verb.

DrBox · Tue Mar 04, 2014 9:24 pm

Where's that from - 1979, 2 years after that lockerroom had been last used? Great post.

Not sure if that's sarcasm, but those are the only pictures you find online Tulanes football facilities. I left out plenty of pictures from the other schools.

Last time I checked Tulane's 130lb weight it weighed the same as LSU's 130lb
weight but Bama's 130lb weight was really 131 pounds lol

And they're obviously from the 1970s and hadn't been used in ages when that pic was taken. Like I said, great post.

Well that's just the problem right there in a nutshell isn't it? If those pictures are from the 1970's and are obsolete, then what are they doing on Tulanegreenwave.com in 2014 and why aren't there any pictures of the updated nicer facilities? Either the facilities still look like that or Tulane is, once again, monumentally incompetent in using 45 year old photos. Please tell me which is the correct answer, but either way my point remains. And once again, shooting the messenger isn't really going to help solve anything.

JJ, the pictures on the link you posted sure look a whole lot closer to those of Bama, LSU and Texas than the one GreenLantern posted. Your entire post, which I quote here, is very puzzling and makes absolutely no sense. You contradict yourself with the links that you post.

I'm not a Cow/Dick supporter, but have to wonder where else CJ was going to hold practice? I bet the kids get a kick out of being at an NFL IPF.

Ok, well I can't both be a jerk for posting 40 year old pictures and also making no point by posting comparable pictures at the same time. It has to be one or the other.

Does the weight training room have power clean platforms with bumper plates? I didn't see any in those images. If we do not have fully outfitted power clean platforms we need to remove those worthless hammer-strength machines and build platforms ASAP.
Sorry non-rev athletes, it's time to step aside for now...
