Tulane Football

[El Paso Eagle]

It looks as if they will be at SMU. I guess I’m a little surprised that they did not end up in the Houston area with Rice, UofH, and Reliant. Does anyone know if UNT might have offered use of our facilities?

That is odd, I thought Rice had offered opened up their doors to the Tulane students...perhaps SMU did the same.

They are holed up (if you can call it that ) at the Double Tree Hotel. I heard on ESPN radio that Conference USA head quarters are in Dallas and hotel space is limited from all the displaced families. They only packed for 3 days worth of travel.

They want donations of L-XXXL underwear, jeans, t-shirts, tootpaste, etc to the Conference USA headquarters. Some people were taking it directly to the Double Tree, which made the employees confused.

DAMN IT! I just dropped off my spare keg of Abita.

I was refering to the average student. I thought I heard that Rice and Columbia were inviting the Tulane kids to take their classes with them.
