Rumor is that Arnie Fielkow has not been granted an interview for this job because the Bensons used their financial leverage to dissuade Tulane from pursuing Fielkow. Gayle Benson is on the Tulane Board.

Whether this is true or not is debatable. The fact that possibly the most qualified candidate has not been granted an interview, or been considered as a finalist, is embarrassing for Tulane. That part is not in question.

This is true also Mitch Landrieu put pressure on Tulane too to eliminate him as a candidate. Sad because he would have been a great AD

Southern is a top 125 team in America, but yeah, this is Conroy's last season.

Scott hasn't really produced at USF and the basketball coach Rex Walters has been mired in controversy and dismal results.

Benson camp pushing Scott due to allegiance with his father

Landrieu hate Feilkow because he sees him as a political adversary for some reason.

They may not be as terrible as a typical SWAC team but they're not top 100

That presentation by Fielkow is very amateurish. Looks like a high school kid put it together for a project. No wonder he didn't get an interview.

I have some mutual friends with Sidwell and it appears he will be staying at USF. Who do y'all think is the favorite? Anyone heard anything new?

Barbara Burke will get the job.

Maybe it's a good thing, the last time a female lead Tulane's athletic department she had all four major sports in the top 25.
