Coach Geezy in the Big Easy: Our City, Our Team | Part II - The Golden Age of Tulane

Guns up baby! Realistically though it would very difficult for Tech to bring in a coach with the pedigree and accolades that Geezy has so it would be funny to watch coach switch to the other side of the field to LSU

I wonder if Geezy would even entertain LSU. I'm sure they can pitch the fact he'd still be in the Bayou but Tulane fans would be heartbroken and heated.

Would be one hell of a storyline while still keeping Geezy within what... an hour of the Big Easy? Worst case it could be enough to maybe keep our author going if disaster strikes [emoji106]

And the plot thickens. I love that Coach Geezy is entertaining other offers (gives me hope that the story would live on if Tulane elects not to keep you). I would love to see you jump sides to LSU. The possibilities of storylines are endless there and I know that would keep you intrigued. North Carolina has a lot of possibilities as well though and as someone else mentioned would be an intriguing not frequently seen team. My hope though is for infinite more years at Tulane...We will wait and see.

Seriously, a jump to LSU would be nuts and fun to read. But, Geezy ripped Deuce going to Bama, so how could he rationalize going to LSU?!

I think the thing with Deuce was more so that he bad mouthed the coaching staff on the way out.

Don’t get me wrong I want to see Tulane keep rolling, but all three of those would be intriguing stories if you keep going if forced to move on. Especially North Carolina as I don’t think I’ve seen a dynasty for them and they aren’t exactly always a contender.

Hope for the best though and that you stay in the Big Easy!

Ps watching their game against Memphis right now. Not a huge fan of the helmet and blackout jerseys lol

Ha...yeah I'm not feeling Tulane's black outfit they wore the other night. That, and the helmets looked really goofy. Between the uniforms and the stadium that was 1/3 full, that was definitely not the Green Wave we've come to know here in this thread.

All three of the schools indicated in Erin's story have intrigued me at one point or another. Obviously I am hoping it doesn't get to that point though.

Well, keep in mind that we are going into the year 2027, which is almost a full decade from now in real life. There's no telling what the overall landscape of college football will look like at that point; Texas Tech may be ready to take the leap by then. Think of how much things have changed in real life over the past decade plus.

The LSU storyline definitely intrigues the hell out of me.

Reading the tea leaves from Erin, it sounds like she already knows he's entertaining them, or maybe coach Geezy is just using his long-time media mouthpiece to put the fear of God into the Green Wave brass before the contract negotiation. haha

Yes, Baton Rouge is about an hour or so from New Orleans. My wife, oldest child, and I were actually just out there last night for an annual restraurant trip we like to go to out there.

I'm sure Coach Geezy's family would love to go to Texas de Brazil way more often.

Thanks, Cheese. I thought long and hard about it, and if the ultimate disaster happens, I don't see myself letting this story end on such a sour note. That said, I really really would prefer not to start things over.

Man, this really has turned into some drama. I must say, it is a very uneasy feeling knowing that the game's A.I. could decide on a whim to end this thing after this bowl matchup.

Coach Geezy was actually not too happy with Deuce when he left -

"I don't know where to begin," said Geezy via telephone.

"We are completely shocked. In a way, you can sort of tell that he was missing home and as the season wore on, he seemed to be less and less enthusiastic every day. That said, I never would have thought he'd not only quit on us, but go to one of our main competitors in the SEC. It's disappointing."

Man I am really going to miss that dynasty subplot; I can't believe it has been virtually two full years since I wrote that article!

Woot woot! Finally the Heisman voters get one right! Nice to see the award go to Roberts. Definitely the most deserving my opinion. Nice job seeing Price bring home the hardware. You really groom safeties, you always have. It was nice to see the experiment of his career pay dividends.

And a fitting end to Deuce's career in college football. I am hoping you continue to weave him into the storyline perhaps following his pro career or maybe he goes on to coach....

Madden-based updates of Deuce would be amazing. . .

Re: Coach Geezy in the Big Easy: Our City, Our Team | Part II - The Golden Age of Tul

Glad to see that you're entertaining offers at least, I think LSU would bring the most storylines and be the most intriguing of all of those options! Plus I would love to get to see some games at Death Valley (only if Tulane isn't an option of course)! That said, I think Heisman was finally given out to the most deserving player, what a season for Roberts, and good to see Price get recognized for a stellar year as well, very consistent and was able to contribute all over the field with a couple of everything on the stat sheet.

Re: Coach Geezy in the Big Easy: Our City, Our Team | Part II - The Golden Age of Tul

Man, seeing some familiar faces still chugging along is making me want to get back into franchise reporting. Salute Geezy!

[BV28]

Re: Coach Geezy in the Big Easy: Our City, Our Team | Part II - The Golden Age of Tul

I remember when you signed Price and I commented on the fact that he is a 6'7 safety...cool to see him turn out to become a beast!

I would love to see Geezy head to LSU, even if Tulane offers you an extension. I think Geezy needs a change!

Good luck in the bowl game.

I was shocked to see a wide receive finally win the Heisman. This game certainly favors quarterbacks heavily, but I guess that accurately mirrors real life.

I am very pumped about Jo Jo Price's development. He's turned into a monster. Next year, I will (hopefully) have him along with two true freshman blue chip safeties - Jeremy Reid and Damon Hayes - so we will be very creative with how we operate in the defensive backfield next season. Stellar safety play has been missing for a while now, and we seem to be on the path to re-establishing that.

You're right, I absolutely have to come up with something creative with Deuce. That storyline is/was amazing to write about.

Madden-based updates of Deuce would be amazing. . .

Hmm, seems like this is what the people want, so I will definitely spend some time figuring something out and not let Deuce disappear into oblivion.

LSU is certainly the most intriguing of the options for sure. I honestly really don't want to leave Tulane though. Another school will strictly be a contingency plan at this point if things go south with the "contract negotiations" after this bowl matchup.

DJ Rhude. Great to hear from you my brother...Time to change your name back to what it should be and get back into the game. If you fired up a dynasty, you'll quickly realize how much you missed it. We all certainly miss your work.

Thanks for checking in old friend...hope all is well.

Yeah, I'm not ready to let go of the Green Wave. So much "dynasty report infrastructure" is in my place for me to want to bolt. I have built a solid sandbox of characters, custom stadium sounds, storylines, and history surrounding Tulane football and it would be hard to give all of that up to start new at this stage. A move down I-10 to Baton Rouge would only be an option if Tulane doesn't offer the extension.

In a perfect world, I envision Coach Geezy ending up like the Bobby Bowden or Joe Paterno of Tulane football, with a strong run of over 20 years. I am so nervous about not this upcoming game, but what's to come after it! We'll soon know his fate!

Thank you everyone for your patience; it has been a long couple of weeks at work. Myself and my oldest will be taking a trip to Ann Arbor to watch the Wisconsin-Michigan game tomorrow, and when I get back in town, it will finally be time to fire this one up!
