SWAC member Southern University controls it more than Tulane...if GreenWave16 wants to know the truth.
What planet do you live on? Does USM even get coverage on the news down here? In the newspaper? C'mon, get real. You have no idea what you are talking about. You do get some kids from Louisiana, mostly on the Northshore by Mandeville and Slidell. However, we don't recruit many of those kids. Your primary competition for those athletes are ULL, LaTech, USA, etc. We rarely go head to head for kids.
Stop dreaming about USM and the New Orleans market. You don't control anything in New Orleans...PERIOD!!!!!! Yes, LSU does have more fans and households in New Orleans than Tulane, but USM and Southern don't come close.
Ok lets go over this once again for the academically astute folks from 2lane. Have the Greenies ever had a radio affiliate outside of new Orleans? Do they have one whose signal can reach Hattiesburg Ms? I fairly sure the answer to both of those is no.
Until about 4 years ago when our Ms Gulf coast affiliate moved to a station more West of the previous one we were on WTIX 690 am in New orleans.
I can presently drive thru new orleans and listen to any Southern Miss football, mens hoops or baseball game.
And yes we had several articles in the Times Picayune this past season. Every athletic event i have attended either in the dome or located on your campus Southern Miss has outnumbered the wave fans. That includes the opening round of the 2008 or 2009 Cusa womens hoop tourney when Lisa fussed about us turning your gym into our homecourt. While tulane never brought over 200 to the rock for a game.
Our true market is more than Hattiesburg, it includes Jackson and the gulf coast when combined is the size of nola. I would bet any amount of money that if ratings on the same day for one of our games and a tulane game could be obtained in no, that ours would be larger.
No one gives a crap about tulane except for about a dozen of you.
Because you are on a radio station with a strong signal , and a newspaper covered your game, this means what exactly? So casual fans in New Orleans tune into to listen to your games? this is just silly, so since UC is broadcast on WLW which can reach Atlanta, UC can claim that market? C'mon.

Complete rubbish, all falsehoods. Tulane IS New Orleans, it is our city and nobody else comes close. The only thing Southern Miss has ever had worth anything was Brett Favre and the only reason he did not go to Tulane was because he could not make the grades, that is a fact. Obviously the AAC gave a crap about Tulane, I also hear the Big 12 gives a crap too. Nobody outside of Hattiesburg even knows what a USM is. Most people around this country think it is a junior college or an FCS school, that is a fact. Tulane is known the world over. Now go back to your own board, we are tired of this nonsense.
Humm So with Bretts MOTHER being a Tulane alum and former lady wave player. What does that say about tulanes academics??

WTF have you been smoking. WKU would get a Big XII look before the joke that is Tulane athletics.

I'm not saying they Tulane is not academically advanced in New Orleans. Everybody knows Tulane has a reputation of high Education..I'm talking about Tulane Athletics. We are talking sports here. This AAC, CUSA, SEC, Big 12, or whatever conference you are in is based on sporting events. When two teams line up on the football field..it's about athletics..education is left in the classroom. Tulane is probably 2nd to none in academics...but in football, they suck..and their athletics programs are less than desired in the State of Louisiana and also in their backyard, the New Orleans area. Now, there you have it...Greenwave16 keeps talking about academics, and I'm talking about athletics. It's just like Vanderbilt being in the SEC, they are a great Educational school, but you don't hear of them going to bowls very often. Baseball is all they have.

The only thing Southern Miss has ever had worth anything was Brett Favre and the only reason he did not go to Tulane was because he could not make the grades, that is a fact. Obviously the AAC gave a crap about Tulane, I also hear the Big 12 gives a crap too. Nobody outside of Hattiesburg even knows what a USM is. Most people around this country think it is a junior college or an FCS school, that is a fact. Tulane is known the world over. Now go back to your own board, we are tired of this nonsense.
Greenwave16...your last post says all I need to know about you.
You are delusional if you think Tulane is New Orleans..
and even a bigger idiot if you think that Brett Favre wanted to go to Tulane. Lol.
You are an absolute IDIOT!!!!!
Your absolutely wrong. Tulane is New Orleans it is absolutely one of the major factors in the cities pulse. It's not just athletics it's the largest employer I. The city and the brain trust.
Which of the "cities" would that be? That Tulane education must really come through.
As for whoever said the Big XII was interested...
WTF have you been smoking. WKU would get a Big XII look before the joke that is Tulane athletics.
This is my last post in trying to communicate with any fan that is not AAC in this thread.
Let's think about the real chances of WKU making it to a power 5 over the next 30 years. Considering Tulane has been suffering for a stupid decision it made in 1962. What's interesting is we have been playing Div 1 football over 100 years. It's funny how you see many of the teams in AAC over the last 20 years sort of close to the big boys but still not quite there. Now think about your school in your poor state and being second to a school that isn't even a good football program in a big time football conference. Do you really think you have a chance at the table in the next 30 years. Do yourself a favor and put yourself out of your misery. Your bashing Tulane will certainly not get you there. We know where we are in the pecking order. Have no fear about that. Unfortunately for you you don't have a clue. Now who really has no brains. Enjoy your ignorance. Keep making good whisky you will need it Junior Varsity!

Have the Greenies ever had a radio affiliate outside of new Orleans? Do they have one whose signal can reach Hattiesburg Ms? I fairly sure the answer to both of those is no.
Until about 4 years ago when our Ms Gulf coast affiliate moved to a station more West of the previous one we were on WTIX 690 am in New orleans.
I can presently drive thru new orleans and listen to any Southern Miss football, mens hoops or baseball game.
And yes we had several articles in the Times Picayune this past season. Every athletic event i have attended either in the dome or located on your campus Southern Miss has outnumbered the wave fans. That includes the opening round of the 2008 or 2009 Cusa womens hoop tourney when Lisa fussed about us turning your gym into our homecourt. While tulane never brought over 200 to the rock for a game.
Our true market is more than Hattiesburg, it includes Jackson and the gulf coast when combined is the size of nola. I would bet any amount of money that if ratings on the same day for one of our games and a tulane game could be obtained in no, that ours would be larger.
No one gives a crap about tulane except for about a dozen of you.

I'm not saying they Tulane is not academically advanced in New Orleans. Everybody knows Tulane has a reputation of high Education..I'm talking about Tulane Athletics. We are talking sports here. This AAC, CUSA, SEC, Big 12, or whatever conference you are in is based on sporting events. When two teams line up on the football field..it's about athletics..education is left in the classroom. Tulane is probably 2nd to none in academics...but in football, they suck..and their athletics programs are less than desired in the State of Louisiana and also in their backyard, the New Orleans area. Now, there you have it...Greenwave16 keeps talking about academics, and I'm talking about athletics. It's just like Vanderbilt being in the SEC, they are a great Educational school, but you don't hear of them going to bowls very often. Baseball is all they have.
Except in athletics now and from here on academics plays just as much a part as wins do, as does markets. let's say we play Southern Miss 100 times and you beat us 99 times, we still get picked ahead of you, we are still above you in the pecking order. We have the total package. USM are like that tough kid in high school, yea they won a few fights but now they are a janitor at Burger King and will never ever get a promotion because they do not have the education or basic fundamentals to even run a cash register.

WTF are you talking about. I am well aware of where my school is located (both affiliation and competitive "pecking order"). While Tulane may be in a wealthier conference, it has nothing to do with your place competitively. You are a **** has-been, also ran, doesn't win trophies private school. You are located in a large, attractive market. You are located in a fertile recruiting territory. That is not for your benefit, but the benefit of the conference mates. FAU and FIU are in CUSA so mommy and daddy can come see Johnny play for WKU and Marshall. That's what Tulane brings to this conference. Lots of good, cheap, seating choices for parents and families of visiting players.
Neither of our school are sniffing the arse of a P5 school. If you cannot accept that fact, you are out of your mind. Since 1966, Tulane hasn't had anything to do with the big boys, or being close to the big boys.

Wins is the only thing fans care about. On an ATHLETICS message board, that is all that matters. Conferences might look at various other factors, but when they look back in 100 years and pick the best teams from this decade, they won't be looking at team GPAs or city populations. They look at the Ws and the Ls.

I didnt read the thread... I am assuming its a bunch of teams that we dont want, now arguing who is getting into our conference while our members trash them and say why they arent worthy?
For the record, if any do get in, I hope USF goes Indy. It will be the sign that this conference has totally gone to hell in a handbasket.

Pretty much. I stopped reading a few pages ago when it devolved into a poo slinging contest between Tulane and S Miss. Looking at this page, somewhere along the way, Western Kentucky must have rolled in to get in on the poo slinging fun.

You bring up a really good point, because I thought the same thing. If UConn and Cincinnati left between losing the northeast connection and the hit the basketball product would take I thought to myself would independence in football and going back to the A10 for all sports be an option?
I know Temple wouldn’t do it but the northern schools are already cultural outliers in the AAC and losing UConn and to some extent Cincy would put Temple on an island.

Just another reason I support adding Wichita NOW. It allows the AAC to remain a solid basketball conference even after losing teams like UConn and Cinci. In fact, Id be fine adding up to 3 non-football programs. Say Wichita and 2 more from the A10. Do that, and stand pat at 10. Every team gets a slight raise and AAC football remains solid while AAC basketball continues to be a multi-bid conference.
I'd also say this--the best outcome after losing UConn and Cinci would be any solution that lands Army and Air Force under the AAC flag. Id be willing to accept just about anyone to make that happen.

Can't do Indy these days without becoming a de facto member of the MAC or Sunbelt. Practically speaking, no P5s will fill out our schedule unless we're willing to be the regular Homecoming one-and-done sacrificial lamb (and that goes for USF also). That also means 7 road games (with the home games being Army, UMass, Buffalo, Villanova and, say, Charlotte, or similar -- every year!).
Best solution for TU and the other schools that want to be competitive in BB would be to add a few BB schools. We can likely have our pick of the state schools from the A10.
Religiously against hybrids? Then here's newsflash: Our options will be limited.

RE: WKU, Southern Miss, La Tech and NIU contacted by AAC?
Since GreenWave16 and some other Tulane fans rerouted your entire thread into a "We are too smart to accept you dumb people"; let's take a look at some cold, hard facts. Tulane's so smart they walked away from the SEC in 1962. US News & World ranks all universities in AAC and CUSA. AAC has 11 members who are ranked as National Universities and CUSA has 12. CUSA's highest ranked is Rice at No. 18 while AAC has Tulane at 41. The average ranking for AAC is 128. For CUSA it's 180. There are about 280 national universities in all with Memphis, Middle Tennessee and 5 other CUSA schools tied for No. 200. So, here is my question: How do folks at Memphis, ECU (No.194), Houston (No. 187), UCF (No. 168), USF (no. 156) and Cincy (No. 140) stomach your Bloviated and Irrelevant Bologna?
