There are few things of which I am certain but one is this: Tulane should NEVER lose a series in BASEBALL to UAB. Period.

If we are ranked and Memphis has a winning record the thanksgiving game will be packed. What we do in September will have a tremendous impact on the rest of the year. Beat ksu and zero u and don’t lay an egg against the lesser opponents and you will see secondary market prices beyond last year’s ole...

I don’t know enough about what coaches are available or if and when we are going to be in the market but to me a major plus for hiring Will Wade would be the amount of mental distress it would bring to fans of another program about 90 miles away. Might be a good hire, might not, but that alone would...

I don’t see basketball as a problem for getting into the acc, at least not a major one. I think the acc ptb understand that acc membership for Tulane would immediately improve our ability to recruit in hoops and frankly two or three blue chips puts you in the hunt in a sport with five on the court a...

Hope this is the turning point.

I'm not reading this whole thread right now and this comment may be out of place given that this topic concerns one player, but I think those people who thought Tulane would, overall, be hurt by NIL and the transfer portal, need to reconsider. Seems like we have found a way not only to survive but t...

Happy new year to our tigger buddies who won close to as many games as we did this season. But still not as many.

In addition to the food the architecture is neat. More like New England than northern Virginia or the Maryland eastern shore. Would love to go back when there is actual sunshine. The Maryland state house is beautiful.

The stadium was about like usm. Not gonna trash it. With better weather it would have been fine. Annapolis itself is great. Quaint small town feel and I will give a free plug to chick and Ruth’s. Great whopper sized crab cakes. Pricey for a diner setting but delicious. Vpi fans outnumbered us but we...

I was there. Just getting dry. My of course totally unbiased and objective takes: We got consistently shafted by the zebras. Not unusual but still aggravating. Did it cost us the game? Can’t say it did. Their qb killed us with his legs. Of course it helped that the refs absolutely would not call fla...

Very early flight from msy to bwi. Kind of wishing I had traveled today but year end work chores for me and the missus required a compact schedule. Hope to see some of you tomorrow.

Looking forward to getting there and seeing it! Mrs. Wavefan and 1309 are coming with me.

Excellent advice!

TV is where the value is. The most watched teams this season: Average viewers by million (Nielsen rated games) Alabama 7.12 (11) Ohio State 6.05 (11) Colorado 6.00 (9) Georgia 5.90 (11) Michigan 5.61 (12) Tennessee 4.57 (7) Oregon 4.43 (10) Texas 4.26 (12) Florida State 4.16 (12) Notre Dame 4.15 (1...

I just hope we are cool with the Virginia Tech fans at the Military Bowl, considering there's a decent chance we will be (once again) conference-mates soon. 8) Always enjoyed playing VPI in football, and baseball and basketball back in the Metro days. The VPI fans were cool people, down to earth, n...

I think fsu overvalues fsu. If they can bluff and bulldog into a better conference situation then good for them but they may end up trading a decent but not top tier conference (acc) for another decent but not top tier conference (whatever the former big 12 ends up being called). In the end it is al...

They win the prize for blowhards who exaggerate the amount of visiting fans they bring to games in New Orleans. Probably will claim they had 20k at this game.

Glad to see Jacksonville State win. That is a very pretty part of Alabama with lots of great people.

It is not improper for a coach (Fritz) to leave. It is not improper for a coach who plans to follow Fritz to Houston to stay through the bowl game and coach for Tulane, including to recruit for Tulane. It is at least improper and likely a breach of contract for a coach employed by Tulane to recruit ...

Anyone not pleased needs to have his or her head examined. This hire is potentially an upgrade and at a minimum a continuity. And this is the first time I can recall we truly hired our top choice among candidates. Sumrall is a proven winner. He is more fiery than Fritz which I like! He knows the are...

Or as Bugs Bunny might say, hare hare!

First off I’m impressed. Potemkin Village! You don’t see analogies like this on many college sports message boards. Second, keep the high level of discourse but ditch the doom and gloom bs. He was a good coach. He methodically built a solid program. But he was not and is not the only person who can ...

I’m going. With wife and 1309. My wife tells me a few other greenie gals are going too. We support the team and Tulane. Coaches come and go. We don’t.

If Fritz did not give Tulane the last chance to counter then amf! If he did and Tulane didn’t make the effort then shame on us.

Whatever happens, happens. But if Tulane has a chance to make a matching offer then it isn’t over. I’m afraid all of this ruined our chance of winning tonight. Horrible distraction. As for hiring a new coach I am not convinced that we will need to do that.
