    Covid Among Us (Again) - TU Pauses Practice Indefinitely

    Good news for Phil: This solidifies his job security yet another year! So long he chooses to remain, he will be here coaching the 2021-2022 season. Maybe he will want to leave and agree to a reduced buyout, but I think he loves the kids he works with and is happy to have a job. It was already...

    Probably wanting to make sure he will still have a job in the future. It has probably been extremely tough asking so many for pay cuts, taking pay cuts and all of the other cuts and then add the pandemic on top of it. The optics of going to NCAA sound better than taking an AD (or lower) position...

    TU announces non-conference football schedules for 21-23

    That's quite generous of you, assuming the admin would have a basic level of knowledge about FCS teams! You're right and if they want to know how to really kill attendance, start the season with a loss to a passionate FCS perennial playoff contender that few from Tulsa have heard of. If TU...

    Who Will Be The New Head Coach In 2021

    Millip only uses sharpies to formulate his offensive schemes on the dry erase boards! He KNOWS what he's doing is always the right way! TU will be in good hands with someone with such schematical integrity!

    Tulsa 2020 Record Predictions

    I wasn't suggesting ending football and plenty of posters have said that would end TU's membership in the AAC so for sure would be self-defeating to lose the revenue that would save the other sports. Just saying resources should be more focused on making basketball a great experience and...

    Tulsa 2020 Record Predictions

    I never said that or said that's what I want. That seems to be the reality we're faced with though. Does anyone have about $3-$4 million to pitch in hiring a new HC and staff? Anyone have about $10+ million for IPF?

    Tulsa 2020 Record Predictions

    I think it's better to have low expectations considering the disastrous financial state. Until that $7 million TV money comes in, and even for a bit after, it will be rough for TU to keep athletics going as it had been for a while. If Monty can get it done, it's certainly time and I hope he...

    Latest mid major madness new nit projections this morning

    It was an up and down season, but TU's incredible run in the middle part of the season and great conference play looks like it will really pay off! Watch out CBI!!! Seriously though, hoping TU does some damage in the AAC tournament or at least finishes strong with a couple wins. It has been a...

    Tulsa 2020 Record Predictions

    Even 6-6 would guarantee his job for 2021 (Check back next January: 6+ wins will mean Coach Montgomery will not be fired). I'm guessing 4-8 is the coin flip. I think TU will win somewhere in that 3 to 6 range, but of course will be ecstatic if it's more than 7. TU football fans deserve a good...

    Who Will Be The New Head Coach In 2021

    Sorry but it will most likely be Phillip Montgomery. Nah, I'm kidding. I actually think they'll likely go with Millip Phontgomery:

    Monty staying.

    As far as "attendance woes" and people claiming parking is an issue, I and many others parked nearly a mile away for an @OU game and it was packed. I've never parked more than 3 blocks away from a TU game. Remember when Todd Graham voiced frustration that TU beat Notre Dame then came home to...

    Monty staying.

    Babe the Blue Ox and I called it. It angered a lot of people on here, but it was the most likely scenario considering TU's financial state. Why would anyone on here trust the current admin to find a head coach capable of turning the program around, especially with budgetary restraints? It's...

    Chad Morris

    Rushing is 3.4 ypc minus the MSU game, still the worst at TU in a long long time. Even if you take out the negative yards from Smith, TU still averages just 4.0 ypc (and isn't a fair way to compare to previous seasons where TU is typically close to 5 ypc even including sacks). Brooks is...

    The big question

    Unfortunately the market dictates these crazy contracts and buyouts. FSU had to pay their latest fire $17 MILLION! TU (and anyone else) had no idea what would happen the next 3 years. After 2016, Montgomery likely would've been hired away without at least a decent boost and extension of his...

    The big question

    Good points. UCF was out-coached and out-played, however close it was. I'd think Boomer has full knowledge of the playbook by now. He might not be as capable as Zack Smith, but shouldn't he have enough experience at this point to be able to run the offense pretty close? It certainly looked like...
