Serious question...Why would Skip Holtz even consider taking a step backwards to coach at Tulane? Everybody knows the La Tech job is better than Tulane. That would make no sense at all.

Three times the salary, a conference with 3 ranked teams right now, regular national television exposure, brand new facilities, an interesting city to live, a highly academic school that appeals to students? Probably one or more of those reasons, I'd imagine.
It isn't three times the salary. He has a much SAFER and cleaner city to live in now. And one other thing. You can win at tech. Its not possible at tulane.

LA Tech is paying Holtz $500k annually. CJ was making at least $1.2 million per year, and if rumors are accurate Tulane is ponying up more for the next coach. So excuse me: 2.4x his current annual salary at minimum.

If safer and cleaner is what Ruston has on us, then congratulations to them. Sometimes people pick to live in a place because they want something interesting to do in their spare time other than eat at the nearest Dairy Queen with the other 30 people who live in town. We're one of the fastest growing cities in the country for a reason.

He makes 600k a year. If his current K is structured like Monkens he will get a automatic raise based on this year. If tulane is paying 1.2 mill for a coach with the product it has put on the field in my lifetime i can see why there are constant stories in the nola media about the financial mess at tulane.
There is much to be said for a man to raise his family in an area where he can go to his local Dairy Queen or any other food establishment and not be worried about getting shot in the parking lot due to the area's high crime rate. Much to be said for being able to know your wife and family are safe when you have to be on the road recruiting. Also its nice not to have to drive 40 miles to from your house to your office just to have a nice safe place to live.

Being located in one of the nastiest cities known to mankind is only one of the many things that makes the tulane job unattractive.

UCF just hired an ASSISTANT coach. All i see in these delusional threads is head coach after head coach's name thrown about. I will bet you anything you want that what Jayess says is correct. Now that ucf has a unproven coach. Memphis and tulane will follow suit with someone taking their FIRST head coaching job. No one with a established job will leave for a job as bad as the tulane one is.

Ive seen a good example of that play out in real life already. In the 90's i had a neighbor named Rodney allison who came to Southern Miss with Curley Hallman. Rodney left southern miss for Auburn as rb coach. His best friend Tommy Bowden tried to get him to follow to Tulane as OC. HE declined because of the risk of working at Tulane AND the enviroment his kids would be in. He did later follow Tommy to Clemson.

Tulane has for the last 50 years been a dead end and will continue to be no matter how many times they "make a commitment to athletics".

Did "owning" us get you called up to the better conference? No? Then shut up and accept that you are below us in the pecking order. Not so hard to comprehend.

Your not above anyone. No league that would take tulane is above anyone in anything. The only reason your there is someone has to go 0-8 in league play.

Lets wait and see who this splash hire ends up being. If its anything other than an assistant coach then your a stepping stone. Just one on the lowest rung.

New Orleans is a wonderful city. The problem is that you have to know/learn where NEVER to go. There are parts in NOLA that are worse than rough areas in Latin America and South America.

...there are also some memorable and beautiful places to live as well. People making a decent salary are able to live in the good side of town.

New Orleans is a classic "house divided". Tulane is on the pretty half - and the socioeconomic divide between the two is terrifying to watch.

I was a strictly middle class scholarship student (family made a respectable income but was not rich). It was really eye-opening to see people with fricking nothing working around 800' from multi-millionaire trust-fund children and local politicians.

The underlined: Come on now, I'm not going to address this.

Most urban campuses have crimes such as this. This was such a shock because the specifics about this crime were unusual. (Tulane people tend to not get shot.)

I'm thinking from a more "zoomed out" view.

The kid that got shot tried to protect someone getting robbed. I understand why he did that, but he didn't realize that he was in a town where that is a BAD idea. NOLA thieves simply don't care.

I'm 27. I'm in Maryland now, but I might go back to NOLA in a year or so. The thing about going back to my 2nd home is that I don't want to raise a family there unless I have the money to do it properly. You MUST make private school money in NOLA - since the difference in school quality between public/private is frightening.

RE: Tulane coach fired
Funny, i don't see any AAC fans, even fans of "pathetic" Tulane, posting on the CUSA board(s). Yet there are USM, La Tech, UTSA, North Texas and other CUSA fans always on this forum. Interesting.

I kid, I kid.

It isn't three times the salary. He has a much SAFER and cleaner city to live in now. And one other thing. You can win at tech. Its not possible at tulane.

LA Tech is paying Holtz $500k annually. CJ was making at least $1.2 million per year, and if rumors are accurate Tulane is ponying up more for the next coach. So excuse me: 2.4x his current annual salary at minimum.

If safer and cleaner is what Ruston has on us, then congratulations to them. Sometimes people pick to live in a place because they want something interesting to do in their spare time other than eat at the nearest Dairy Queen with the other 30 people who live in town. We're one of the fastest growing cities in the country for a reason.

He makes 600k a year. If his current K is structured like Monkens he will get a automatic raise based on this year. If tulane is paying 1.2 mill for a coach with the product it has put on the field in my lifetime i can see why there are constant stories in the nola media about the financial mess at tulane.
There is much to be said for a man to raise his family in an area where he can go to his local Dairy Queen or any other food establishment and not be worried about getting shot in the parking lot due to the area's high crime rate. Much to be said for being able to know your wife and family are safe when you have to be on the road recruiting. Also its nice not to have to drive 40 miles to from your house to your office just to have a nice safe place to live.

Being located in one of the nastiest cities known to mankind is only one of the many things that makes the tulane job unattractive.

UCF just hired an ASSISTANT coach. All i see in these delusional threads is head coach after head coach's name thrown about. I will bet you anything you want that what Jayess says is correct. Now that ucf has a unproven coach. Memphis and tulane will follow suit with someone taking their FIRST head coaching job. No one with a established job will leave for a job as bad as the tulane one is.

Ive seen a good example of that play out in real life already. In the 90's i had a neighbor named Rodney allison who came to Southern Miss with Curley Hallman. Rodney left southern miss for Auburn as rb coach. His best friend Tommy Bowden tried to get him to follow to Tulane as OC. HE declined because of the risk of working at Tulane AND the enviroment his kids would be in. He did later follow Tommy to Clemson.

Tulane has for the last 50 years been a dead end and will continue to be no matter how many times they "make a commitment to athletics".

RE: Tulane coach fired
What this thread tells me is that Tulane and Southern Miss need to start a H/H football series. It's been a while since we last played, and both schools have changed a lot (and Tulane is going to change some more).

It would be a good barometer of where the programs are headed.

Hahaha Tulane would hang 70 on USM. Beating UTEP is one thing but let's see them try to hang with a real team from a real conference.
