Re: Recruiting news

Well shut my mouth, what an unbelievable day of recruiting. Trying to think back to class that landed Roydell Williams, Ronald McClendon & JP Losman, the only time frame remotely comparable. Those weren't all in one day though. I graduated in 1982, been waiting 45 years to see a recruiting day l...

Re: Tulane Portal Tracker

Is there anything to the internet report last night about Tulane zeroing in on a PAC 12 former 5 star WR transfer, has anyone heard anything.

Re: Tulane Portal Tracker

I have no idea about the size of Boise's NIL program. What Tulane has been able to establish on NIL is remarkable. If someone opines that Boise likely has more to offer NIL wise than we do, they have to be basing that on the relative size & support level of their fan base. I am not sure whether ...

Re: Tulane Portal Tracker

I must second mlwave's viewpoint. I too was advised 6 to 7 months ago by a very senior person in Tulane's athletic department that Michael Pratt turned down a much, much higher NIL offer from a P5 program to remain at Tulane for 2023. He got that offer because he was regarded by that other school as...

Re: ACC Realignment Megathread

I wonder if FSU, if they wind up getting a satisfactory revenue sharing formula change & stay in the ACC, might be supportive of adding Tulane, maybe as part of a 3 team package including Cincinnati and West Virginia. FSU has historically been favorable towards Tulane, their people love to come ...

Re: Captains Sincere Haynesworth and Michael Pratt, y’all OK?

Practice starts tomorrow, if he doesn't practice then the media will ask about it until someone answers it. He's the star QB of a ranked team.

It's Dec 16, bowl practice is about to start, there's seemingly little reason for tight secrecy about what Michael Pratt is going to do. It's past time to let the fans know.

Re: BEAT NAVY!

Prof my experience visiting West Point twice for road games was the complete opposite. They couldn't have been more polite. Their band learns your fight song & plays for visiting fans pregame, tipping their caps to you at the end. Completely helpful & hospitable. We went 1-1 in those 2 games...

We offered Fritz the same money as Houston, no reason at all to believe we'd be outbid.

Re: Prospective Head Football Coach Discussion Thread

The revised version of Guerry's last report lists the concerns being raised about each candidate, e.g. lack of FBS pedigree, one dimensional run offense, etc. On Sumrall it states concern is how long he'll stay if successful, exactly as you wrote Gsx. Nausea is setting in.

Re: Prospective Head Football Coach Discussion Thread

Simmons has 4 years as an FBS position coach and 1 year as an FBS OC. Atkins has a better FBS resume. We can't afford to give either a chance to prove themselves, not in these times, when we have 2 sitting FBS head coaches who are big time winners at this level, both taking their teams to bowl games...

Re: Indoor Practice Facility: Delay Cannot Be Money. Is it just logistics?

Folks are quite reasonably reacting to hearing Fritz literally quoted about actual facilities at Houston and ironclad contracts to build them, comparing them to promises that never materialized here. I don't think that permitting delays is what he was talking about; he's not a fool, he'd understand ...

Re: Prospective Head Football Coach Discussion Thread

We can't take the risk, we simply cannot afford to take a chance on a rising star & give him an opportunity to prove himself. We simply have to have a proven commodity with skins on the wall. This is way, way too critical. Sorry Alex Atkins, but no.
