The city press conference yesterday got very interesting for Tulane very quickly. They mayor was very defensive when asked about why high school football can't play. The cities top health official said the Saints can play only because of a work place exemption. When pressed about Tulane and how they have been able to practice and play contact sports in the city while they are in Phase 2 the health official basically said she didn't know what Tulane was doing.
So this lead to Tulane putting out a statement on social media defending what they have done including putting the specific date when they met with city officials to discuss issues related to our football program.
I'm glad Troy got out in front of this and put out that statement. I will have to admit that when I saw press conference the first thing I thought was that the city was going to shut us down.
Guerry, I think this would be a great story to find out exactly what is going on. I have to think Tulane has been transparent with the city and has gotten approval for everything they have done. I think the city is in a bad spot because they keep using Phase 2 as the reason for no HS football yet now it is out there that Tulane has been playing even though we are in phase 2.
