Once again there is more to admissions than academics. No one here has any proof that it was academics that kept him out. Just look at all of our rosters and see all the transfers we have been taking in. Those scores cited by that writer are for the general student body. They don't apply to student-athletes. They just need to meet NCAA minimums.

The proof is he wanted to go how come he was denied and was immediately accepted at OSU? Tulane’d for a new reason then. Just let us know what other unknown roadblocks put up against athletes. This kid was the top recruit in his class and was denied admission. That’s the bottom line.
You think Paul Mainieri gets denied here? Bogus.

That’s the question. That writer doesn’t know as he cites academic standards that don’t apply to our athletes.

Just saw Guerry mention this.
Congrats on your no hitter Justin
Tulane’d again!
https://247sports.com/college/oklahoma- ... 165204810/
Oklahoma State’s Justin Campbell made history as the ninth pitcher in program history to throw a no-hitter, and the 20th-ranked Cowboys clinched a series win at Kansas for the first time in more than a decade with a 19-0 win Saturday at Hoglund Ballpark.
Campbell’s performance saw him strike out 11 and surrender one walk, that coming with one out in the eighth inning and being all that stood between the right-hander and a perfect game, as the second-year freshman improved to 5-1 on the season with the 99-pitch outing.

We just got a commit from a football player with a score of 20 on the ACT. Once again no one here as any knowledge of the actual issue. There is more to admissions than the academic part. The writer from Oklahoma showed his lack of knowledge by claiming the player needed a 30 to get in Tulane. We are getting in all kinds of transfers from JC's and lower level academic schools. Things aren't perfect but they are better. Facilities are what we lack to really move up the ladder athletically.

Sure we know what happened. We got Tulane’d again. Doesn’t matter what happened he was denied here and welcomed at OSU and is a major impact two way player. Same ole Tulame admissions.

It's not the same admissions. Like I said you nor anyone else knows what kept him out. Yet we now get all kinds of transfers we had difficulties getting in in the past. The old admissions people that harmed athletics for decades have moved on. Athletics is clearly treated much better with the new admissions people.

Maybe it was pure academics (unlikely) or maybe there were red flags. We don’t know, but I agree things have gotten much better and will give the benefit of the doubt to the people who actually know what happened.

You proved my point. Tulane Athletics is not on a level playing field when it comes to admissions. Otherwise he’d be accepted just like he was at OSU. Doesn’t matter why.
How is it better that our best baseball recruit was not admitted but was instantly admitted to OSU?
I can explain it to you but can’t understand it for you.

Like I said you nor anyone else here knows the reason. What if he's an abuser? You want to be like LSU? I can't help you when you don't know what you don't know.

Hell, I would have settled for accidental manslaughter, I wonda if Derek Chauvin will have any elegibility left, and can he throw the "slider"

Nice try but that was a different administration. People lost jobs over that debacle. Like I said you don't know what you don't know.

I do know he didn’t get in. The “why” he wasn’t admitted doesn’t matter. If we were on a level field he’d been in our dugout and not someP5 school. He’d be two-way stud here instead of at OSU. Obviously someone fed that to Guerry to post. I can’t blame our coaches when they are trying to compete and still have to overcome some baseball unfriendly Tulane admission BS.
Like I said earlier we got Tulane’d again.

Not Tulaned here. The reason does matter unless like I said you don't care if someone is an abuser.

Your out of line implying that he’s an abuser. You better have facts if you’re going public with that implication. I’ll send this link to his parents.

To whatever extent our admissions policy has become more flexible for our athletic program--it's obviously not enough. There is no way Justin Campbell should not have been admitted, as he qualified at another D1 school. Nobody on this board knows "why" he was not admitted, and we really don't need to know "why"--clearly our admission requirements are still different than Oklahoma State's. Given that most Okies are conservative in nature and respectful of laws and morals, I doubt Justin Campbell is an abuser of any kind. Okla. St. needed him far less than we did, and they didn't see any flaws worthy of denying him admission. We have definitely been Tulaned again.
Tulane is the University of Louisiana

Different schools have different risk tolerances. Tulane does value their academic record and public image More so then LSU who doesn’t care if their students fail out, can read a book or commit sexual assault (or worse). . . As long as they win. Just using Tulane football as an an example- Willie has run a very tight football program with very few transfers, very few kids failing out and very few off the field issues. Fritz also does extra due diligence on transfers and jucos. We won’t accept the same guys that USM and Kansas accepts, they have to actually be willing to go to class. We do know that the texas tech qb transfer Duffy was weeded out by a thorough background check.

You learn to read I said “implied”. Why even go down that road? I know you’re desperate to be right. But if he got in somewhere else then we are not yet even with others. I can only explain it to you I can understand it for you. Had he gone to a JC I’d agree. But he’s at a D1 and having tremendous success. He should be in our uni. That’s all I’m trying to say. Things may be better but they are still not even. And that from a bar was so low before.

That’s correct. We may not accept kids that can get into OSU, Memphis, Kansas, SMU and others. That’s fine but needs to be pointed out.

Exactly
