Tulane Not Up To The Challenge of Scheduling Louisiana!

[Duggie35]

I happened to stumble across a Tulane site called "Fear the Wave" that I have never, ever heard of before. The link below is to a Soundcloud Pod Cast that features a conversation with Tulane A.D. Troy Dannen.

If you want to listen and get a laugh, at about the 27 minute mark, he admits that UL (he uses Lafayette) has been in contact with Tulane in an attempt to get a multi-year agreement in place between the schools to play Football (Maggard is obviously working hard). However, Mr. Dannen said he instead preferred a multi-year contract with Southern Miss because Tulane recruits against UL (Lafayette) and not against Southern Miss!!!! He is obviously not a student of geography, since Hattiesburg, MS is only 111 miles from NOLA and Lafayette is 135 miles away! He admits that Tulane cannot afford to loose to Louisiana.

I guess the winning and loosing part really doesn't have anything to do with it, because Billy Napier is kicking Tulane's butt in recruiting even without playing!

As far as I am concerned, Tulane can get in line to just "kiss our a_s_s" also!

The day will come when the Lamers will be calling Maggard or his replacement to set up a home and home series

Now that is funny right there.

Trust me. They see what's coming, and they are trying to avoid facing reality. They will fail.

Duggie, I could do a TWIN POST on your other thread about McNeese inviting the LSU brass to their banquet. As wise men/women have said in the past, "When doing things right, sometimes you feel alone and by yourself."

This is why I really don't care if LSU doesn't want to schedule them any longer in baseball home and home. They have been ducking us in football and refuse to play us in MBB. I have no sympathy for the Tulane athletic program.

There's a lot of excitement when McNeese, Nicholls or Northwestern St. plays each other. No matter the records, the players, fans and supports get excited about the game.

I wish UL had that with LA Tech and Tulane. All boats would rise with the tide!

Yep.

[Duckster]

A fun rivalry could be created with Tulane in multiple sports if they will let it. And it would be good for all the student athletes, something all athletic departments exalt they are the best at- taking care of the student athletes. It's a false narrative since so much needless travel time occurs these kids. Foolish pride, it's so stupid.

You know, I guess I wear rose colored glasses, actually vermilion colored glasses, because I really don't see why other fan bases and Louisiana universities don't want anything to do with us. We should be playing LaTech and Tulane every other year and LaSue every four years in football. And we should be playing them in basketball, baseball and softball every year.

Is our university really hated and despised that much by other in-state universities that they can't see it would be in their best interest to include UL on their schedules. Not only does it become instant rivalries, but the monies it would generate at those games would be very beneficial for all involved.

So why are we hated so much? And do you think all the other instate schools feel the same way towards their own school?

Just curious.

Just like scheduling laturd in all sports, this is a no-brainer.

[Louisiana84]

Tulane will be forced to schedule us soon enough.
