Re: Optics of Realignment & Tulane

Good point. Wish Harris would say the same thing you said. He should be preaching it to the fan base and the national media. It would be a great opportunity to let all Tulane alumni and fans a spark of good news.

Re: Pac 12 Realignment

AD of Memphis met with media today, answering realignment questions: said the deal offered by the "Pac, as I like to call them right now" wasn't a good deal for Memphis, wasn't a good deal for the athletic dept, wasn't a good deal for the student-athletes and was a really bad deal for the...

Re: BOOM!! 4* CB Michael Igbinoghene commits

Very good player. The film on him is outstanding.

Let’s get a big win this weekend and reel in some more commitments. A lot of potential recruits visiting for this year and future years.

The original odds were way too high. I still think it is too high. I think this is a pick it game. That could change if our defense can play much better.

Re: Pac 12 Realignment

Unfortunately, I think the current market has players thinking about this at this point of the season. If you play four games, you lose a year. If you are not considered a NFL prospect, a player may want to maximize a NIL deal with another college team before eligibility runs out.

Re: 1/3 way thru the year: Are we a good tackling team?

I agree also. We loss a lot of good players on defense from last year. Dean, Cooper, Machado, Webb, Monroe, Douglas, Pedescleaux, and Robinson. I think it is a combination of factors. New coaches, scheme, talent, speed, and competition year to date. I hope it improves quickly. The figure that has me...

Once again we show we aren't a serious institution. I guess we can hope it was Memphis being not-serious, rather than us, who knows. But as LG says this was always more about positioning than money, and given that, I feel it should have been a slam dunk. After everything I’ve read, I have to say wi...

Playoffs, PLAYOFFS! Yup, and we’re going to keep talking about it here.

Re: TU vs USF

This game will be determined by whether our defense can stop them. I don't know how USF's offense compares to ULL but I'd think it's at least equal if not better. Our cornerbacks have to actually cover someone legally and maybe one or twice actually see the ball coming instead of blindly face-guard...

Yeah. We can pick this game apart. Lots to not be overly happy/satisfied about. But we won, beat the spread. Passing game not the best, but we ran so well, why pass? Coach showed some things we hadn't seen before. Tysom got in for a few more snaps than prior games. Another pick-six by defense. usl ...

Re: Update on the IPF / Bubble

It is my understanding Sumrall is ticked off. Are we going to lose another coach over facilities? Seems like Harris has no idea what to do. All of this coming out now. The timing is impeccable as usual.

I wish the geography wasn’t as bad as it is. The travel is a killer unless a couple of other programs close to us get an invite.

Why hasn’t USF been mentioned? Is it strictly the distance?

BH, thanks for the update. What’s going with Batiste? Is he hurt? I know he played as a true freshman with Troy last year. We certainly need our edge guys to step up now. The lack of any kind of pass rush could be as much to blame for our 1-2 start as anything else. Any news on Barnes? Will he be ab...
