Ye Olde Green Wave Forum

Same place we were in December. Top 2 or 3, maybe even #1, depending on who's asking. Remember, while it's been a depressing four months, they don't actually care about MBB or BSB. I mean, a winning program is nice lagniappe, but a losing one isn't a showstopper. For one thing, if we get in the ACC...

Counterpoint: All 4 of the Saints' QBs suck.

From Nola.com

“Forward Gregg Glenn, who started once, center Percy Daniels and guard Asher Woods are the only rotation players who have not posted they were leaving. Glenn averaged 3.6 points, Woods averaged 2.4 and Daniels 1.9”

Lol

I think the point is to complain loudly/irrationally.

Isn't that why we have this forum?

Guilty as charged!

so, who is going to Houston exactly? Kelly Comarda, founder of FTW, former Tulane baseball player, bled green and blue. He was doing FTW for free. Willie offered him a big check, he stalled and gave Tulane every chance to even offer him a fraction of what Houston offered. Tulane offered a fraction ...

I will hold my donations until I see something, anything. What have we done since the Cotton Bowl? The locker room. Field turf. That’s it. Probably cost us another New Year’s Day bowl appearance. Please tell we have done more than that the past 15 and half months. Surely we can accomplish more with...

Are there any roadblocks, legal requirements or restrictions in the Fear the Wave bylaws, articles of incorporation etc., that would prohibit the collective as a private entity (separate from Tulane University) from paying top administrators full-time competitive salaries? Does it have to be univer...

Fritz's buyout was if he resigned where Hunter's buyout is if he is fired. Fritz might have had a high buyout if he was fired and we don't know what Hunter's is if he quits. John Callipari had a $35 million buyout if he was fired but $0 buyout if he resigned. This is the relevant point...which side...

Today I saw a headline with a brief synopsis of an article about millennials regretting their decision to go to college and more are opting to go into blue collar careers. I wonder if we will see more small, private schools having trouble staying open. (I don’t know, but guessing that these are mor...

And Hailey Van Lith was not the top player in college hoops. That title goes to the one that sent LSU packing. LSU isn't becoming UConn. Too much drama. If any place could become the next UConn, it would be South Carolina. This (indeed, she wasn't the best player on her own team even). And South Ca...

The rare pro-insider trading take! Guessing it doesn't exactly take a lot of resources to see who purchased short dated out of the money calls? Probably took one guy a half hour...they'll get an exponential return on their money from the fines/forfeitures.

"We only averaged 1700....." - what the heck was our football attendance, prior to winning? This isn't about current attendance; you could fill up Fogelman with paying customers every night and still not "justify" it on a pro forma balance sheet or income statement. Sure, we can...

You would be amazed at the kind of things I've seen people text, send on Facebook, and use payment apps to do that ended up biting them hard. If my legal career has taught me nothing else, it is the value of in-person or burner cell conversations and cash transactions. [youtube]http://www.youtube.c...

Meanwhile, smu was able to hire away usc's coach who is now on record as saying he wouldn't have made the move without them being in the acc. It really stings they got an invite and we didn't. Also that they beat us in the title game last year, preventing us from another high profile ny6. I hope th...

Just Harris, and (possibly) Hunter.

Are you sure about playing changing nature of aid? It doesn't change the nature of the aid (he'd still be on legislative scholarship) but it would count against our 85 limit. Otherwise, we (well, not us, but Alabama) would just give out 50 "academic" scholarships every year to people who ...

Based on timing and athletic profile, I guess this is a most appropriate use of a legislative scholarship. I hope he plays baseball too. Congrats, Dagan Good point about legislative scholarship, but if he's serious about FB/if the FB team is serious about him than I don't see him playing baseball. ...

We are also going to be faced with having an actual payroll for players very soon, if we want to be in the top level of football and basketball. I expect coaching salaries and buyouts to plateau or even come down some in the face of a whole bunch of new payroll expenses. Maybe it is smarter to keep...

we just made a regional everything is fine I really doubt we will see a change. The team will likely win more games than last year so we can sell improvement and being on the right track. bringing Uhlman back after a season that shows improvement over last year will not be nearly as destructive as ...

The Saints don't have enough picks and so many other needs that drafting a QB is extremely unlikely, especially with Carr now extended 2 more years (unless we pull a Payton and swallow the medicine ala Wilson). Their signing of Peterson suggests Haener and Hill will be the backup options in some or...

Didn't we learn our lesson about moving baseball off-campus when we played at Zephyr while Greer Field was under construction? In our zeal to move forward, we must take care not to forget the lessons we were already taught. The lesson was the coach blamed the inconvenience for a subpar season. Whoo...

I'm in favor of anyone starting over Carr.

Panoam was a highly rated recruit. Ridiculous we never got to see him play. Well, ya know, it takes more than a year to learn how to play one defense all the time. What are the odds this new 4 star hs recruit from Louisiana isn’t going to see any playing time and then will transfer when we fire Hun...

I didn’t want to start a new thread for this, but I passed Nicholls campus and got to see their new “indoor” practice facility. It’s basically a tall warehouse with walls on the upper half of each side with the bottom being open all around. I found this pic online: https://i.postimg.cc/4NYbsnqv/IMG...
