according to sources at Learfield-IMG, their first choice withdrew his name from consideration after meeting with TD ,,,,on to the second act/choice of this soap opera

Wow so either IMG’s first choice had an issue with TD or something he said or vice-versa? Not good. How will the new guy if not already familiar with Tulane football get caught up with or develop a rapport with the coaches and team with so few days left until kickoff? Someone has handled this process very poorly. Whether it is Tulane or IMG I do not know.
Everybody calm down. Golf was joking. TG left late in the process. I'd rather them get it right than rush it.

Win....I wuz ?...I am sure IMG-Tulane will make a good choice, but I am told, by reliable sources the first choice withdrew... It makes no difference to me who gets the gig, I don't listen anyway, I follow it on game tracker, no audio needed

Tragic circumstances , but is Auburn also having problems replacing their longterm Voice ?
President Fitts , B of A , it's put up or forever hold your peace time . Make Tulane ATHLETICS relevant and top 30 again .
The new voice is an excellent selection. It's not my place to share his name or background. He is extremely qualified. Tulane did not settle. Everyone, except for the usual people who hate life, will like our new voice.
Based on your past sense of humor in many post over the years I thought you wuz kidding due to the act comment.I mistakenly took that as a jab at the recent baseball fiasco .I was thinking ACT. Maybe your source is right about the first choice and maybe not. We have someone though and I believe they were our first choice.

WIN...U could be correct....Learfield may have had a choice in mind ...Tulane had another...as long they are competent, all will be well.... I trust the person at Learfield, who told me there was a withdrawal.....no big deal... Hell...Tulane should have had open auditions...that would have garnered some newspaper print and some TV timewinwave wrote: ↑Thu Aug 08, 2019 3:50 pmBased on your past sense of humor in many post over the years I thought you wuz kidding due to the act comment.I mistakenly took that as a jab at the recent baseball fiasco .I was thinking ACT.

This late in the game, Ed Daniels, Ken Berthelot and several others become very valuable assets on the "local scene"

We did not need someone from Blacksburg by way of Walla Walla ; we need a homer, a Greenie at this critical time in Tulane Athletics. . Bad choice .

Oh man, what a wonderful interview. Bittersweet for sure but also so upbeat and uplifting. Made me a little misty

I had the exact same feelings. When JD asked him what play or plays he'd like to change if he could I knew it had to be the botched double play against Baylor in the CWS. That was the first thing that came to mind. Then there were a few key plays late in football games (missed FG on homecoming 2 years ago, the failed attempt by Banks to get in the endzone vs. SMU, etc.)Bicoastalwave wrote: ↑Sun Aug 25, 2019 1:13 pm Oh man, what a wonderful interview.

Graf is a class act and will be missed. I look forward to an opportunity to meet him in the stands and talk Tulane sports with him.
