USC Beats Tulane 13-8

[winwave]

We play USC today at 4:30. Jewett is their hitting coach.

[BC Wave]

In Cotton Bowl Classic fashion, maybe we can win without USC striking out once.

Are you guys ready for an historic season? If you extrapolate the current record, we are looking at a monumental season of approximately 5 and 51!
Great job, Mr. Dannen!

I'm not happy either but Coach Uhlman is not getting fired after 1 season before he has been given a chance to build his own team. We can spend a whole year making childish sarcasm about Dannen by the same people who made the same statements about hiring Coach Fritz, or we can just accept what it is for now and see how it plays out. It's as tiresome as complaining about the weather.

The weather has a lot better chance of improving than this baseball team.

Uhlman could VERY easily be fired after one season, unless the University wants to signal to the fans that baseball is being de-emphasized. Frankly, at this rate I'd be surprised if he lasts the entire season.

We are now the polar opposite of the "Cowen Error," football is very good, basketball is respectable, and baseball is a joke!

You are grossly underestimating the support that Coach Uhlman has from a lot of big Tulane baseball people, including former players. Those people really have confidence in him on the long term and that has more relevance than this board.

Either their park is huge or their guys are really fast. Now 8-4, two triples in the 3rd inning. For one USC guy, it was his FIFTH triple of the season, and this is only their seventh game.

8-4 after only 4 innings! What’s the O/U on this thing?

About what it was for the Cotton Bowl.

[Wave Fan]

It's going to be a long year with this pitching staff.

This is Dannen's fault. He took the easy way and hired from within instead of getting off his lazy ass and getting on a plane and interviewing for the job. or flying candidates in to interview. He is terrible when it comes to hiring. Let me be the first to say even Ron Hunter has to go.

Final: USC 13, Wave 8.

We are now 1-10.

Absolutely. Worst Tulane baseball team in 100 years. Jewett was a bad hire. How do you hire an assistant of his? I’m not against JU but I’m beginning to think this is simply de-emphasis of baseball. There were many that wanted the job but not at $300K.

[winwave]

Tulane loses again 13-8.

[TURVS71]

1-10 ….Great Job Dannen with Jewitt and now his assistant ,Uhlman. Well Uhlman stinks, just like Jewitt ( (that ones for you Graffinini)

And for the poster that said that Uhlman is well respected by inside Tulane people and by former players, I say, who gives a crap what THEY think. Do you really think that what’s left of our fan base is going to give Uhlman 3 or 4 years until the team “comes around’” No another bad Dannen hire. What an awful and terrible embarrassing baseball program we have put on the field. I tend to agree with DaveBrownStreak that at this point in time, a 5 and 51 record is not that far-fetched, unless a comet comes screaming to Earth and puts us all out of our baseball misery!

A lot of things have more relevance than this board, and Lindberg landed, too. But if this team finishes 15-40, he's fired or we've simply told everyone that gives a crap that Tulane doesn't care about baseball any more.

And you can get on those of us that questioned Fritz after the 2021 season with pot shots all you like. Some of us wanted him to show us that 7 wins wasn't his ceiling, and he did. I never questioned his hiring, I questioned if he could take us where he did in 2022. He answered the question. You had nothing to do with it, and if you thought differently than most of us did after the 2021 season, good for you. Maybe you're a prophet. Woo hoo!

Hoping for Cotton Bowl vibes but they never materialized.
