Tulanians, New Orleans, Athletic Director David Harris, and President Mike Fitts, Enough is enough. Tulane football is a falling way short of our standard and imminent action is necessary. Last year, Tulane was one of the 12 best teams in the entire country which lead to unprecedented positive media coverage, a surge in Alumni support and a 100% increase in applications to the university. 9 months ago, thousands of Alumni gathered across the country to cheer on the Wave win the conference championship and compete in the College Football Playoff. Now, we can hardly get 10 alumni together in each city to watch a game. The poor state of the football program is not only doing direct harm to Alumni engagement and enthusiasm and will have repercussions in future admissions cycles, but could potentially lead to irreversible damage and billions of lost dollars with the inevitable upcoming conference realignment. Our success has been used as an excuse to not invest MORE in the program. We have been a victim of our own success and our peers have caught up and surpassed us already. Our former competition like SMU, and Houston who were already ahead of us seems impossible to catch up to. Change is needed now. WE MUST INVEST TO STAY COMPETITIVE. If you care about Tulane football please SHARE this message. An outpouring from Alumni, Fans, and New Orleans will be the only thing to bring the university to immediate action. @DavidHarrisAD @TUFitts @GreenWaveFB

Its almost impossible, Tulane's offense looks the most efficient it has all year, but after only 3 drives, Tulane is down 24-14 to... Charlotte...

#Tulane's first series is a 15-play, 92-yard TD drive. Trace Johnson was in total command before Dagan Bruno came in and handed off to Johnnie Daniels for 3-yard score on first-and goal. The most impressive series of the season.

For what it’s worth, Tulane has played an average P4 schedule so far. We have an average G6 schedule remaining.
Strength of Schedule based on games played (x axis) and games left to go (y axis). Teams below the trend line have an easier road going forward. SOS calculated with power ratings

Chime co-founder Chris Britt is on Tulane’s Board of Trustees. Chime has an Enterprise value of $10 Billion+ and is based in San Francisco. I believe Mr. Britt is a friend of the Podcast as well!
Busy week! Leaving San Francisco after several productive & fun meetings with some dear friends of @TulaneAthletics. Now, off to Charlotte to catch up with @GreenWaveFB and a special group of supporters who’ve made the trip. The 🌊 is truly blessed with support coast-to-coast!

Will be a massive blunder if they just give this away instead of negotiating transfer fees, solidarity payments, and training/comp fees.

I will give hall the injuries, Chris Rodgers, Elijah Baker, CJ Lewis, Jamauri McClure, Jack Tchienchou have been banged up or basically out all year. But young and inexperienced?? We have more returning players, specifically on defense, than most of the conference! We returned way more this year than the prior two.
Tulane head coach Will Hall shared what his message is to fans who feel frustrated after last week's loss to UTSA in our weekly interview. His team returns to action Friday when the Green Wave visits Charlotte. Full conversation: tinyurl.com/34cu55b7
