A few concerning updates on the state of Tulane football today:
🟢 Garland Gillen reports it would cost Tulane between $5 and $6 million to move on from Will Hall after this season. The man who hired him was David Harris. That kind of money for a coach who went 14-30 at Southern Miss and got fired midseason is mind boggling. That alone is a fireable offense.
🟢 I’ve been told two Tulane players in team gear were seen smoking a joint around campus. They appear to be players in two position groups that have been performing poorly. This isn’t about the weed. It’s about doing it in public, in Tulane gear, without a second thought about how it looks. That’s a discipline problem, and discipline starts at the top.
🟢I rewatched the Homecoming game. Guys out of position, effort gone, a team playing like nobody believed in the plan. Tulsa led 32-0 at the half and outgained us 562 to 201. That’s on the coaching staff.
🟢 I’ve heard from multiple people that players’ families are getting into verbal altercations with other families and fans in the stands during games. When a program stops holding together, everything around it cracks too.
🟢 I’ve also been told playing time promises were made in the offseason that weren’t kept by position coaches. You never promise playing time. Fritz and Sumrall never did, and never would.
The culture that Fritz, Sumrall and legends like Nick Anderson, Michael Pratt, Slim Despanie, Dorian Williams, Tyjae Spears, Sam Howard, Patrick Johnson, Sincere Haynesworth, Patrick Jenkins and Jha’Quan Jackson worked so damn hard to build is disappearing fast.
There’s only one way to fix it. Admit you made a huge mistake with David Harris and Will Hall, clean house and start fresh.
@DavidHarrisAD We fans sincerely appreciate your public displeasure with the teams performance at Homecoming. Many of us believe that anything less than the immediate termination of Will Hall would be considered an insufficient response to this situation.

There is a rule in college football that if you get a 60 burger put on you at your homecoming the head coach is automatically fired, right @DavidHarrisAD?
@DavidHarrisAD Are you going to do what you KNOW you have to do? I’m sure you saw the stadium in the fourth quarter. I guarantee many of these fans will not come back unless something is done man up and do it if you want to save this program.
I’ve never once tweeted the AD, but if he doesn’t fire everyone on this staff/everyone responsible for assembling this roster this offseason he is spineless @DavidHarrisAD
Tulane football from 2022-2025:
43-13 (overall)
40-8 (regular season)
29-3 (conference play)
4 straight AAC championship games
2 AAC championships
Cotton Bowl victory
#9 final ranking in 2022
#18 final ranking in 2026
Ranked in the top 20 all four years
2026 is unacceptable
@DavidHarrisAD@TUFitts If you can’t see from the results and the lack of fan support at the game that change is needed then what are we even doing funding a team? Either we are 100% committed to providing the necessary resources or there is no point to it all #RollWave
Dear Green Wave Nation, I want to apologize for all of my vulgarities yesterday, but I am very angry about what I’ve been seeing on the offensive side of this football team. It is so annoying to watch such a talented football team go to waste. I wear my heart on my sleeve most of the time, and I speak before I think. but y’all understand the frustration, I’m sure.
I love Tulane, and I love my boys on this team. They are my guys. And to watch them get blamed for execution when more of it is based on getting put in bad positions by a horrible coaching staff just ticks me off beyond belief !
Unfortunately, what I said last night is true, and I will not be attending any more Tulane football games as Green Wave Man until this staff is dismantled !
Please @TUFitts do something about this before it is too late. This program has come a long way since the days of Bob Toledo, Chris Scelfo, and Curtis Johnson and going back to those days should not be an option because the football program will suffer immensely. The donors, the fans, the people who are tied to this program deserve a much better football program !!!
JUST IN: Crowd starts cracking up after Ben Shapiro breaks Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell's brain after he asked a question about Project 2025.
Swalwell: "How much do you support Project 2025?"
Shapiro: "Like President Trump, I haven't looked all that deeply at Project 2025, but it seems that Democrats on this committee are sort of like Peter Pan and Tinkerbell. If they say Project 2025, enough, their presidential candidate becomes alive again."
Brutal.
"I didn't request to meet with Joe. They requested that I meet with Joe. They were putting their entire family legacy on the line. They knew exactly what they were doing."
