I thought Tulane was supposed to be a pretty good school. I don't know how the schools compare now, but when I was considering colleges, years ago, there was no comparison: Miami was nowhere near Tulane. Tulane was considered one of the elite of the southern schools, Miami was not. I guess Miami has improved a lot. I'm not sure you can prove it from the idiot posters on this board, but they might not be UM students.
According to US News & World Report:
#44 Miami
#51 Tulane
That's impressive. If his parents are interested in quality education, that should impress them. Both are small, private universities. I read an old post on a Texas A&M website that was once a commitment to them. I don't know if that's true.
I hope he and his parents visit pretty soon. I think they'll be impressed. This kid could help us.
His main interest is getting to the NFL. He made that pretty clear.
I don't know the numbers but I'm almost certain we have more players in the NFL than the Green Wave.
We probably have more players drafted in 1 year then Tulane does in 10.
No doubt. I'm chuckling at that because I remember back when we had trouble beating Tulane. Not that we were so bad, but they were much better. I think it was Tulane we beat in the early '70's when the refs gave us, by mistake, a fifth down, and we scored on it. The Tulane people screamed bloody murder, and demanded we forfeit the game, but Curci said "no dice."
There were other times I think they beat us. But that was the '60's, I think. We used to get beat by Navy, too.
