I wouldn't do it and don't think they would. A lot of fans right now want just about anyone over Gautreau because of the teams play this year.

Yea, he's still there. I'm sure if Gautreau gets the job he'll be back.

I dont see how they could hire Riser over Gautreau.


I do.
But we shouldn't hire either one of them.

So what are the admission standards at Stanford?


I know Tulane also has one of the lowest acceptance rates there is.

Stanford 6.6%
Tulane 27.3%



And remember, the Tulane Business School was caught lying with their numbers a few years back. I remember when I was applying to grad school (not Tulane - and any application would have been a mere formality) and seeing all of these outrageous numbers and KNOWING kids (white males) who got in with scores nowhere close to the "averages".

Well i mean if they want someone with experience recruiting kids to a place like Tulane, it would certainly be Jake over Riser. Not only has he been the recruiting coordinator since 2009(might actually be a negative lol), he's 4 years older and a more experienced coach.


Not that Riser will never be a great coach. But he's 29 and his team just finished 5th in the southland in his first year. He has a little more to prove.

He's been on the staff since 09 only recruiting coordinator for a year or two. Brought in a highly rated class this year, but they didn't play well.


I'm hoping we can get Pierce from Sam Houston St

I don't understand why they aren't looking at a Rice, Stanford, or Vandy assistant. Surely Wayne Graham has had a longtime assistant. In my opinion, a coach who hasn't experienced recruiting at an expensive private school will likely have a setback of a couple years to get used to the system.

Pierce now the head coach at SHSU was a Wayne Graham assistant. And I agree they need to look for more like him.

Meanwhile Fletcher Mackel and the gang are pimping Joe Scheurmann as expected.

Got an email last night from Southeastern Athletics about a coaching caravan, and Artigues was listed as "Interim Athletic Director."

First things first, I thought he was awarded the job and lost the interim tag? But realizing this is a Tulane thread, what does that mean to y'all- Is there a chance Artigues may be on his way back to the lions dugout?

If so, I would think Riser wouldn't want to go back to being an assistant, so I doubt he chooses Southeastern assistant over head coach at Tulane, but I could see him taking Southeastern head coach over Tulane head coach.

Does anyone have anymore information on that dynamic and how it may affect the Tulane job?

I dont have any inside info in the athletic department but i seriously doubt riser would leave a program on the rise for tulane unless it was a massive pay raise. I know its his alma mater but i dont see this happening. And my gut feeling is artigues wont ever be back in the dugout.

Tulane right now is a potential career killer job for a young head coach. It may be a step up from SLU but it is so much harder with the mindset of the administration uptown right now.

Tulane is a step up from SLU, in terms of prestige. They have an excellent fan base and a lot of support from the New Orleans area. The facilities at Tulane are a lot better than Southeastern, even with the improvements SLU has made lately. But my argument why I wouldn't be shocked if Riser stayed at SLU is as follows:

Pros for SLU: He has a bunch of young guys there, they have some momentum after the regional, and there is potential to grow the program into a really good program.

Cons for Tulane: Have to deal with high academic standards and tuition for recruiting.

I'm not saying he is staying, I'm just saying it wouldn't shock me if he turned it down. It also would shock me if he left.

we know Tulane can host regionals and be a national seed... Southeastern will never be above a 3 seed... just the way it is
