re: Where to watch in Europe?
Posted by waveprof on 8/24/18 at 2:05 pm
We have a VPN to enable our son to watch European children's programing in the USA. It works pretty easily in that direction. Can't speak about the other way around as I've never tried to watch American sports when I was in Spain. I did listen to a few minutes of a radio call of a Tulane game onc...

Not hurting for a starting QB at all. We are set. Hurting for depth. We have a guy who may start in a year already sitting out this year for transfer rules. After that its a true freshman and a redshirt sophomore who was a WR a year ago. McMillan will get a good chance to compete to start in a ...

"I don't think that's true, JJ. I'm no expert, but I don't think a baseball player can get TOPS in lieu of a baseball scholarship."
They can't get TOPS plus an ahletics scholarship, but it's still a huge advantage over Vandy and even some state schools. It means your walk ons can go to school f...

Heard on the radio that Maineri hinted he might start Lange on Friday? Surely that must be wrong?...

AAC isn't exactly the same thing as CUSA, and it certainly isn't the same thing as the Sunbelt. And you don't exactly have the same football history with any of the other state schools either....

They don't need to rearrange their 2017 schedule, Oklahoma is the first opponent on it.
Oklahoma doesnt play Tulane until 2017, so they, directly, don't explain canceling anything in 2016. But the money from the Oklahoma game does make canceling Ms State "possible, and the TU AD claims he did ...

I agree. The rumor is that they are working on another big name (home) game that year, and don't want 3 big name schools in the same year, and meanwhile the Oklahoma payout is big enough to make them not worry about the Ms State buyout.
I would have played the game in Starkville personally...

Oklahoma is guaranteeing money (we don't know how much, bug signif more than Ms State's 350K) for the 2017 game. The second game at Oklahoma is free (in exchange for the game at Yulman)...

I'm of the camp that says we didn't need to cancel Ms State to do this, but to answer your question....
Tulane is claiming they did that, in part, to make way for the recently announced 3 game series with Oklahoma (one of which will be in Yulman). But that series doesn't start until 2017.....

[quote]In 1938 they were anti LSU, but today, from my experience, they are not. I have been to New Orleans for 2 bowl games and talked to people.
Also, for that game Tulane had against us at Cajun Field last year, I talked to a few of them. Not many Tulane fans came to that game and if Louisiana p...
re: Fournette, Dupre at Tulane Camp today

Fournette has actually been at a couple of Tulane practices.
And I just saw a report today that he won't be taking an official visit to LSU.
Going to USC, Miami, and 3 others TBD.
I don't see him ending up at Tulane, but who knows. Curtis Johnson has been surpassing all reasonable recruiti...
