Re: Military Bowl: Tulane vs Virginia Tech

I saw a ravaged, demoralized team with key players gone on both sides of the ball, and a third-rate OC calling a lot of stupid plays. This team was abandoned by its calloused coach for greener pastures. Tulane FB was treated like sh*t.

Re: NCAA proposes rule to let schools pay athletes directly

"Student-athletes" already often paying fealty to a coach and program, and little to a school -- while moving among several schools over several seasons -- can form specific sports unions with a paid contract negotiator to leverage the pay scale at the schools that afford to pay the most, ...

Re: Prospective Head Football Coach Discussion Thread

People at Florida St. speak highly of the job Atkins has done there. They've certainly improved over the last three years. Jordan Travis in particular has looked great in his system which tells me he knows how to scheme. Travis was thought to be a flop at one point. Now maybe Atkins isn't the guy o...

Re: Prospective Head Football Coach Discussion Thread

I think success as a head coach on some level should be a requirement for the Tulane job this time around. We are in a unique position as one of the top 3 or 4 teams in the group of 5. We can't fall behind. While an assistant may have Tulane ties and a great resume, being a head coach is a differen...

Re: Back to Earth: SMU 26 Tulane 14

Gents, there is a reason SMU closed on Lashlee’s contract extension last Monday and then loudly and proudly announced it. Tulane and Fritz did not and left his employment open ended. Not saying it was a major factor but any edge matters. If one guy “knows” who his boss will be the following Monday ...

Re: Back to Earth: SMU 26 Tulane 14

I think our disagreement comes from a distinctly different generational ethos. I played sports in the 1950s. A coach manipulating the money and prestige strings in that era was virtually unheard of. There is a very different culture today that is heavily laced with financial gain and cynicism. We r...

Re: Tulane Portal Tracker

With absolutely no one manning the ship right now, can you imagine the number of coaches calling many of our players. These guys are truly free agents in every sense. We have no football coach, we have no AD on site, and we have probably lost most of our football support staff. Other than the FTW C...

Re: Slade Nagle

Since Nagle will be the interim for the bowl game, even with a new hire onboard, we'll learn quickly whose fault the offense the past several months has been. Either way, I doubt the new coach retains him. No reason to do so. Generally the new coach will keep someone on staff for some continuity......

Re: Bowl game benefit

I would think a bowl game can be very helpful for us. If we do get a new HC in this week he gets a chance to recruit his own team. That in turn may stem any hemorrhage of current talent On an individual basis, if a kid wants to transfer- heck it’s his life- but wholesale transfers to Houston would ...
