Re: Going to be a long spring and summer for AD Harris

Think the baseball coach deserves a little time- he seems to be making sound decisions. We lost baseball after Katrina and Jones was never able to get it back on track, Pierce did miracles in the time he was here but performed so well we lost him to Texas. I have enjoyed Tulane baseball for forty ye...

Re: Potential Flip? Zycarl Lewis Crystal Balled to Tulane

Saw a post on X by a Colorado follower who listed players who were rumored to be moving on and Lewis was listed as headed to Tulane. He is small in stature but reportedly has lots of speed.

Re: FOOTBALL TRANSFER PORTAL 2023

What an incredible performance by coach Dumrall and staff! Hope the big donors will reward them with what they need. Biggest objective now must be to break into P-4 or whatever number of P’s there are now.

Re: 2024 Baseball Season

All accurate points. TOPS program made us less competitive in state and elimination of legislative scholarships did too as we would get several of those from friendly legislators and while I don’t know anything about current practice, Jones was great at finding guys who would come if offered partial...

Portal closes today

The transfer portal closes tonight, meaning no player can enter thereafter. At least then we will know for sure who is coming back and can still negotiate with those who entered ass they could still return.

Re: 2024 Baseball Season

As said, the tuition cost and limit on scholarships severely limited what Jones could do. He would hand out partial scholarships when necessary, looffor children of doctors and lawyers who could pay full freight and rely on my dear friend John Hainkel, one of the greatest supporter of Tulane sports,...

Re: Transfer QB's

We had better convince more of our in portal players to return or get busy finding some other schools’ guys in portal or we aren’t going to win many games in 2024.Doesn’t appear we hit any home runs in Dec signiings

Re: Letter to the Editor calling for fan support

Great information to fill out the story. I was never angry when Smith, Mac, left. Felt difffferently with Bowden as he lied repeatedly and was at Clemson mid season during off week. Felt Fritz let us down because we had given him the opportunity that he likely thought would never come and he still j...

Re: Letter to the Editor calling for fan support

Willie begged for Tech job last season( take the first train out of town just like Pittman, Smith, Brown, Bowden, but a group of powerful young alums protested against the hire and blocked it. Dannen could have conditioned the raise and extension on a big buy out and I still think Fritz would have s...

Re: Sumrall Era Begins

It’s only been two weeks , with early signing so close to hire, but right now we have only brought in Troy assts and hard to know whether we are making progress keeping our players as well as recruiting unsigned high school guys and transfer portal players . But I think right now it’s fair to say Wi...

That sounds like a big order when starting late January. At the risk of asking for criticism, I am expecting next season to be a rebuilding one for us.

Given the guys we are losing through graduation and portal, what are our biggest needs? We know what we got on Dec. signing date but none of those guys looked to be instant help. Thoughts?

Re: FOOTBALL TRANSFER PORTAL 2023

So what’s the optimistic out look for facilities, upgrade of conference affiliation and how does loss of Fritz and team’s failures in Sami and Vzt game affect? With a more consistently successful program, likely not significant but with us? I worry that we saw the apex in Srlington in January.

Re: Virginia Tech GameDay Thread-Military Bowl

Willie, Wes And Fertitta must be having a great time watching this humiliation. And the announcers aren’t going to talk about it but this looks like high school team. Embarrassing, humiliating and completely undermines all that was done in last two years. Very sad.
