On a bad passing day, why would you call two passes on 4th down, with one of them being a deep ball? Back to listening to Simon and Garfunkel, the darkness has always been a friend to Tulane.

Tulane wasted 2 timeouts in the 2nd half.

I know it’s right after this devastating loss, but I think Fritz should resign.

NO. THIS is your exact quote, just 8 DAYS ago. Now will you admit you were wrong? Of course not:

"I meant to note that several articles by different people have talked about him having touch but questioning his arm strength. These are not mutually exclusive. There is no issue at all with his arm strength. Fortunately he also has touch."

Or at least make a change at QB next week.

Yea. The AAC schedule will be brutal. The script on us been publicized—make Howard throw the ball, and pass against our D. SMU May put 100 on our secondary.

I wouldn't fire him, but a qb change should be contemplated. Either way, BEATINGS WILL CONTINUE UNTIL MORALE CHANGES. THIS IS THE TULANE WAY.

I was referring to media reports as I said. Then as I said he does have touch and I've posted that here. He has shown it. If you haven't seen it on any if his passes that's on you.

Take the L, dude. He does NOT have touch.

Honestly though, let's just use this year for QB development.

See if either of the freshmen can play, go 4-6 or something, and then retool for 2021.

In fairness, touch is hard to do during moderate rain. I'm not sticking up for Keon cause that was abysmal, but just saying it's hard when it's raining pretty hard

He won’t resign—there’s too much money to be made in Vegas. Nothing else explains his decisions today. And if he doesn’t play Pratt, we’ll know winning isn’t a priority anymore with him.

Honestly, are any of you really surprised at how this game ended? I'm not one bit. This is classic Tulane.

He does dude. You want to be mad at somebody be mad at Willie. He scared away competent QB's.

Truly pathetic.
He’s been working on his passing for 4 years now. It’s not going to change at this point.
True, that’s why he left USM, if Howard doesn’t have it by now, sadly I think he never will.

True. And touch isn’t his primary problem, complete inaccuracy in his passing is.

This is the Tulane way. Just lots of darkness and more darkness. Right when we get a glimmer of hope, darkness.

USM must be feeling in an 'i-told-you-so-frame-of-mind' with Tulane having Keon Howard and them with former Tulane commit, Jack Abraham.

You nailed this loss. Just what you predicted. Nobody surprised. Going to be just great for recruiting.

Right. I was in his camp up until that pic today. He went all downhill from there
