    I don't know about continuity but we need more resources, that is for sure. Philips showed that he was able to accomplish a lot even with limited resources but sooner or later, they will all leave for larger schools where they can have more of an impact on individual athletes rather than be responsible for so many where it is impossible to manage progression.

    Your right drumroll. We should try to get Medgar to come back closer to home. He's a real sharp guy and loves the area.

    We were next door neighbors in McCullogh dorm our freshman year. Class guy, he went to St Aug and I went to Brother Martin, so we had a lot to chat about. He told me that he was going to walk on and make the team, and he did, 4 years later he walked out of U(s)L with degree in hand and a tryout with the NY Giants, not to mention the respect of every single, player coach and fan that watched him play.

    I would love for him to come back to UL and take over. Hopefully someone at the university still stays in contact with him and can at least throw an offer out there.

    After the great naming of the recruiting area for Mr. Fournet today, I went to the IPA---All the lil bballers were at Robes camp and the Fballers were doing their off season workouts----A player came up and mentioned that the guy was gone but that the guy putting them through the drills was damn good---As an ole dude ---I was impressed---Wait till the new Tulane coach pays the 20K per year for the private schools in NO!!!!!
