Re: Should Tulane care about basketball?

The P5 P2 have been very succesfull at branding their monopoly capitalism by getting their message board faithful to blindly repeat silly phrases like "D2" to reference *every*program they imagine as beneath them......let's not parrot that language. We need to play a more serious schedule,...

Re: Troy Dannen to Nebraska

I like Seattle, but it's no Portland. The dream of the 90s is alive in Portland. I came of age in the 90s but it's not a decade I have any nostalgia for whatsoever. I haven't been to Seattle, most of what I know is from my uncle who played football for the Huskies, but nothing about the PNW vibe re...

Re: Troy Dannen to Nebraska

Interesting to note Amy Dannen abruptly stopped tweeting last August, and never updated her photos from Tulane photos when Troy took the job at Washington. The story was always she was staying in New Orleans until May so kids could do the entire schoolyear, but rumors have suggested she moved back t...

Re: Point of order... the season is over ....Hunter should be fired

One can hope that Coach Stockton’s retirement means that our AD is having hard conversations with underachievers from last season and we get some news about Hunter soon. Purely hope on my part, no inside info, but the idea of retaining him is disgusting and definitive proof that we are not committe...

Next March will mark 30 years since our last NCAA bid. 3-0. . Eh, we went 54 years without a berth before our first one :angel: 30 is clearly inexcusable but it's worth noting we've only had 3 ever, a crazy low number even for a school in a much smaller conference than ours, and *all* three were un...

Aresco Retiring in May

I know this was announced in December, and I saw it then, but I'm pretty sure I've never seen it on yogwf, so thought I'd make a thread.

That's fast becoming the norm for all Deans and even Presidents. They don't want anyone whose done much in the field, they want a business/executive/leader type. Right, wrong, or indifferent (and I could give reasons for each of those three viewpoints).

Again, the numbers you quote are for peopel watching/tuning into the game at any given moment, I agree most will be on NFL.
