Re: Troy Calhoun of Air Force
Exactly the thinking that resulted in Fritz at UH. Exactly. The last two years should encourage us to go even bigger. With the expanded playoffs we need to have our eyes on something much bigger than winning the Cotton. Let’s think: national champions. How do we get there? If you want a national ch...

Re: New HC profile
Someone on other board saying Troy Calhoun a candidate. Interesting. Similar to Fritz in that ran an option offense but won and experienced HC. Yeah, I don't think another coach who runs the triple option is going to be viewed warmly by our fans and alum. Calhoun runs the triple option at Air Force...

Re: New HC profile
Tulane should stick with the Fritz model: a head coach who has a winning track record. No has beens. Someone who used to be great is the wrong approach. No one with character questions. Someone who respects the academic mission of Tulane, but who also won’t use high academic standards as an excuse. ...

Re: Loyola MBB cracks the NAIA top 25
#15 this week, . One thing I like about the NAIA coaches poll is that the poll is every few weeks or so, so when you lose a game or win a big one voters can assess a bigger slate of games to put those into a larger context. And that means less volatility in the polls. When you climb upwards a bunch ...

Re: Someone thinks Ole Miss game should be moved to Dome
Tulane can leverage the scarcity/demand for Ole Miss tickets to sell season packages for the whole season (particularly given the, uh, lack of local appeal for the rest of the home slate). So there is zero chance Troy will even think about moving that Ole Miss game. Troy? Here’s my projection about...

Re: Cotton Bowl TV ratings hit record
It was a record low. But at 4,165,000 it was the most highly rated Tulane game in my 53 years. It also out-rated the LSU Citrus Bowl game by about 800,000 viewers. USC was likely the reason for the low rating because their fans were disappointed about playing Tulane.
Anyway, Roll Wave!

Re: Tulane Beats USC 46-45 to win the Cotton Bowl!
Consider the last Tulane play when Bauman caught the pass in the end zone that was ruled incomplete by the official: It wasn’t that the referee called it incomplete, he was dramatic and pounded the ground several times emphasizing his call. To this I say, WTH??? Clearly the ball never hit the groun...
