    What Rick Jones has done at Tulane is remarkable IMO. They are strong from top to bottom with a great pitching staff. Jones has been creative with his scholarships at a University with high academic standards, he's recruited extremely well, he has the University fully behind him, and he's prospered since Skip's departure from the game.

    The fact that LSU won 5 NC's doesn't really have much to do with any of that.

    If I am not mistaken, many athletes at Tulame are not subject to the high academic standards and entrance requirements. They have a feeder/sister college or something of the sort in place which many athletes utilize.

    Someone who understands this better please give details. I don't quite know how to explain it.

    Whatever - I shouldn't swim upstream on this one. Their baseball program is in great shape. I'll leave it at that.

    That comment doesn't bother me because LSU won 5 National Championships in baseball.
