Coach Geezy in the Big Easy: Our City, Our Team | Part II - The Golden Age of Tulane
    PrologueNine seasons ago, just prior to the start of the 2010 season, Tulane athletic director Rick Dickson made one of the biggest moves in his school's history, hiring a first time head coach by the name of D. Geezy. In that time since the hiring, Geezy has taken Tulane from a Conference USA cellar dweller to a Southeastern Conference national powerhouse.  Can Coach Geezy add to Tulane's trophy case? The team has seen several faces come and go during the past near-decade: RB Orleans Darkwa, QB Curtis Byrd, LB Mark Richards, QB Anthony High, and FS Dre Harris are just a few amongst several talented Green Wave players Geezy has had the pleasure to coach. But there are two in particular that stood out as men amongst boys during their stay in New Orleans - 2017 Heisman Trophy winning RB Reggie Moore and 2-time national champion QB Jamie Manning. Moore, a Schriever, Louisiana native, was a 4-star recruit in 2014 and the first true superstar player Geezy was able to bring in to play for the Green Wave. Scoring on the very first touch of his collegiate career via a 90-yard kickoff return touchdown as a true freshman on opening day 2014, Moore would dazzle the Superdome crowd for 4 amazing seasons and helped lead Tulane to its first ever national title in 2016. His career would culminate with becoming Tulane's first ever Heisman Trophy winner in 2017 as a senior, a year which saw him finish with 1,964 all-purpose yards and 27 touchdowns. Moore left Tulane following the conclusion of the 2017 season, a heartbreaking loss to USC in the BCS National Championship Game and a game which saw Moore come just one yard shy of tying the score at the end of regulation.  Manning led Tulane to two national titles. Can they get back to the top without him? Manning, a 4-star recruit in 2016 from Decatur, Georgia, guided the Green Wave to their first ever national championship as a true freshman, a game which featured a thrilling, game-winning 10-play 80-yard drive which concluded with a 6-yard touchdown pass to Moore with 0:02 remaining to seal a 29-26 win over defending national champion Penn State. Manning's 2017 season would end in disappointment, as he tore a back muscle on the very first play of the aforementioned BCS title game versus USC, which led to him missing virtually the entire game and his team falling 20-13 in Pasadena. Manning would bounce back in his junior season however, despite being minus his now-graduated partner-in-crime Moore, guiding the Green Wave to a perfect 14-0 record and a second BCS National Championship, this time defeating undefeated Michigan 30-20 in Glendale. Shortly thereafter, Manning announced he was going to forgo his senior season and enter the 2019 NFL draft, where he is projected to be selected #1 overall. Manning joins six other star players leaving Tulane early for the NFL Draft this off-season, along with 14 more graduating seniors, for a grand total of 21 players (12 starters) departing from their championship squad, giving the Green Wave a brand new look heading into the 2019 campaign. Fresh off winning their second national title in three seasons and clearly the "team to beat" in college football, Coach Geezy and the Green Wave now embark on a new journey, with a new supporting cast and a new signal caller helping to lead the way, along with a fresh target painted squarely on their backs.

Dynasty Rules & Settings Mission Statement Exactly five years ago this month, I began what would end up becoming my favorite dynasty I have ever played on the NCAA Football series; never before had I experienced as much fun playing NCAA until I decided to play with Tulane for the first time. Being a New Orleans native, the opportunity to use a team based in New Orleans, that plays in the Superdome, and sits in the middle of a recruiting bed full of several cities I am familiar with, gave this dynasty a very unique twist for me. It ended up easily being my longest running franchise or dynasty, by several seasons. The original dynasty lasted 9 seasons and pretty much exactly one full calendar year in real time, and at the end of it, I decided to give up dynasty reporting, or at the very least, take a long hiatus. I had put so much time and effort into this dynasty that I was drained by the time it was over and knew that even if I tried, no dynasty would ever come close to matching that one. I'd eventually try my hand at a UAB dynasty just a couple of years later, but as predicted, that one quickly fizzled out after less than two seasons; I just could not get into it anymore, and time, rather the lack there of, was beginning to play a major role in my gaming life. No longer the single, 20-something year old guy in college I was when I first started my dynasty reporting ventures almost 15 years ago, I am now a married, father of three, with a house, a dog, a full-time office job, and not a whole lot of time to play. I had given up dynasty reporting, but several weeks ago I decided to google my previous Tulane dynasty for old times' sake. Reading it brought back some awesome memories. There were so many fun moments on that dynasty and so many great readers and old names, such as Cheese2121, BDAWG35, DJ Rhude, Tearz49ers, and RyanLeaf16, amongst many others. Wondering what ever happened to those guys, I decided to do a google search of their usernames and came across this Operationsports dynasty forum. I quickly learned that despite there no longer being an annual NCAA Football game release, to my surprise, people were still reporting on dynasties. I realized interestingly that it was now en vogue to play old versions of NCAA and report on them - and just like that, I suddenly caught the fever again and I made the decision that I would try to revive this old dynasty; that dream would be short-lived however. Upon firing up my XBOX 360 for the first time in years, I discovered that my now 13-year old son had deleted my NCAA 2011 save file from the hard drive because he needed the space for something else. I didn't get mad at him; I mean why would he ever think his dad, who rarely plays video games these days, would want to play a 5-year old game again? It was okay anyway though because I had always double-saved my files to a hard drive and to a memory card for extra back-up. However I was disappointed once again, because the save was not on the memory card either; only the UAB dynasty from NCAA 2013 was on it. I asked my son did he also delete the memory card's content, and he swore up and down that he did not. But why would my UAB dynasty be on it and not one of my previous game saves, like Madden 10, NCAA 11, or Grand Theft Auto IV, are on it? It was then that it dawned on me - I now remembered that I had lost my original memory card with the Tulane dynasty, and I lost it prior to two house moves; I had specifically bought a new memory card years ago for the sole purpose of double-saving my ill-fated UAB dynasty as I was playing/sleep-walking through it. I was both happy and sad. Happy that my Tulane dynasty did not actually get deleted from all existence, but also sad since there was no way I'd possibly find a lost memory card that was lost prior to two different house moves, and is very likely sitting somewhere buried in a landfill. I searched and searched and searched every room of my 5-bedroom house, searched through every storage bin in my garage, as well as every remaining box from our moves, but to no avail. I had given up, and eventually I found peace with the notion that me returning to the dynasty reporting game just wasn't meant to be.  This tiny piece of plastic has spent the past 4+ years buried at the bottom of a box and has literally saved this dynasty's life. But that was until one fateful June Friday morning, when I decided to do one last memory card scavenger hunt minutes before leaving for work and stumbled upon a box in our upstairs laundry room full of old family photos, a box I had already looked through earlier in the week but not very thoroughly since it was, as I said, just a box full of photos. I went through the old pictures, recounting memories of yester-year, and as I am going through them, I am suddenly remembering that these are photos that used to be in my old home office/video game room in our first house. So I keep digging and digging, and low and behold, at the very bottom of the box, was my original memory card, still sealed in its nice clear protective case - either myself or my wife must have just threw it in there with the pictures while de-personalizing our first house to get it show-ready for selling. Needless to say, I was ecstatic; I was so ecstatic that on that very same day I went to GameStop and purchased a copy of NCAA Football 2011 for $2.93 during my lunch hour. So here I am, back in action for one last dynasty-reporting hurrah with my old Green Wave. I'm going into this with the goal of getting in a good 3 to 4 season run, maybe more, albeit at a snail's pace (I'll probably only be able to fit in literally one game a week). I will jack up my already tough sliders a good bit to hopefully create some early dynasty adversity, which I've come to understand is a much-needed element of any successful dynasty report. I'm sure my rusty stick skills will also play a role in this, along with the 12 starters I am losing from my 2018 championship squad. Granted this dynasty is going to take a bit of imagination - In this storyline, amongst several contradictions with real life, there are no college football playoffs, the SEC still only consists of 12 teams, Tulane still plays at the Superdome, and, most notably, the Green Wave are a national powerhouse fresh off winning its second national championship in three seasons. This dynasty will also be unique in that it picks up right in the middle of the 2019 off-season, rather than at the start of a regular season. I have always wondered what would have come of ol' "Coach Geezy" at Tulane, post-dynasty report, since that dynasty sort of had an open-ended conclusion. Now, I have a chance to write that history and add new content to this story's canon. Oh well, I've rambled long enough...Welcome to Coach Geezy in the Big Easy: Our City, Our Team | Part II - The Golden Age of Tulane and I hope you enjoy this revived journey. SettingsVideo Game: EA Sports' NCAA Football '11 Gaming Console: Xbox 360 Gameplay Difficulty Level: Heisman Recruiting Difficulty Level: Heisman Quarter Length: 9 minutes Gameplay Speed: Normal Gameplay Sliders: CPU RB Ability turned up to 80, CPU Pass Coverage turned up to 80, CPU Run Defense turned up to 80, CPU FG Accuracy turned up to 80, and all remaining CPU sliders turned up to 60 | User FG Accuracy turned down to 20 Rosters: This dynasty began with using OperationSports.com's Community Rosters, released on July 15th, 2010, with minor corrections to Tulane's original 2010 roster. However, with this dynasty now heading into season 10, all players are now fictional, game-generated characters. Penalty Sliders: Offsides turned down to 30, False Start turned down to 45, Holding turned up to 55, Facemask turned down to 30, Roughing the Passer turned down to 25, and Roughing the Kicker turned down to 25. Everything else is set to default. Tuner Sets: Tuner set 1 downloaded just prior to the start of 2011 season.

Everything else is set to default (60 Sub Out and 80 Sub In). - Any non-quarterback that sustains a minor injury must sit out the time the game determines they must take before becoming 100% healed. Only in the fourth quarter can I choose to play an injured player. - Like the CPU, the "conservative" game plan can only be used in the final 3 minutes of the game. - Only kickers can be used at the PK position and only punters can be used at the P position. Either the kicker or punter may play at the KOS position. - I may not "free roam" with a defensive player pre-snap. I must line up where the CPU aligns me (or brings me to) and stay there until the ball is snapped. - If the CPU attempts an absurdly long field goal, I.E. from 55+ yards away, I must pick the play "FG Return" on defense, catch the ball, and kneel it in the end zone for a touchback. - On defense, I must play with any defensive lineman for 1 quarter, any linebacker for 1 quarter, any defensive back for 1 quarter, and then any defensive player for 1 quarter. It is completely my discretion each game as to who I will use and when. Recruiting RulesUnlike every other dynasty I have ever done, I will not place any rules or restrictions on myself. I will rely solely on the game's Heisman recruiting difficulty level to prohibit me from building my team in an unrealistic fashion. With that said, I will make every effort to recruit in a realistic fashion for a school of Tulane's current prestige level. Players Leaving- No player will be stopped from leaving Tulane early. - No players can be cut. Transfer Requests- Any and all transfer requests will be accepted whether it is a player leaving or a player wanting to transfer to Tulane. Scheduling Rules- Year 1 took place using the default, real-life schedule. - Starting in Year Two, the following rules were put in place for Tulane's schedule: - Tulane will play an annual home-and-home series against in-state rival LSU starting in 2012, "The Battle for the Rag" (this became automatic following Tulane's invitation to the SEC in 2014). Banned "Money Plays"- Shotgun: Tight, HB Wheel - Shotgun: Empty H Wide, HB Go - Shotgun: Trey Open, Double Post Dynasty Rules & Game Settings Amendment Log- I allowed myself to release any player that was recruited in year 1 of the original dynasty due to the issue of low-rated recruits pre-tuner set 1. - Increased Quarter Length from 8 minutes to 9 minutes in week 6 of Year 3 (2012 season) in an effort to increase the total number of plays per game - Increased CPU run defense to 60 at the start of Year 7 (2016 season) - CPU RB Ability turned up to 75, CPU Pass Coverage turned up to 75, CPU run defense turned up to 75, CPU FG Accuracy turned up to 60 at the start of Year 9 (2018 season) - User FG Accuracy turned down to 25 at Game 2, Year 9 (2018 season) - CPU RB Ability turned up to 80, CPU Pass Coverage turned up to 80, CPU run defense turned up to 80, CPU FG Accuracy turned up to 75, and all remaining CPU sliders turned up to 60 except for FG Power, Kickoff Power, Punt Power, and Punt Accuracy, which remain at default, at the start of Year 10 (2019 season) - Only kickers can be used at the PK position and only punters can be used at the P position. Either the kicker or punter may play at the KOS position at the start of Year 10 (2019 season). - The play call "Shotgun: Tight, HB Wheel" was banned at the start of Year 10 (2019 season). - The play call "Shotgun: Empty H Wide, HB Go" was banned at the start of Year 10 (2019 season). - The play call "Shotgun: Trey Open, Double Post" was banned at the start of Year 10 (2019 season). - I may not "free roam" with a defensive player pre-snap. I must line up where the CPU aligns me (or brings me to) and stay there until the ball is snapped at the start of Year 13 (2022 season). - CPU FG Accuracy turned up from 75 to 80. CPU FG Power, Punt Power, and Punt Accuracy turned up from 50 to 60. | User FG Accuracy turned down from 25 to 20 at the start of Year 13 (2022 season) - False start turned up from 40 to 45, Holding turned down from 60 to 55 at the start of Year 13 (2022 season) - If the CPU attempts an absurdly long field goal, I.E. from 55+ yards away, I must pick the play "FG Return" on defense, catch the ball, and kneel it in the end zone for a touchback at the start of Year 13 (2022 season). - After primarily using the FS on virtually every play up to this point, on defense, I must now play with any defensive lineman for 1 quarter, any linebacker for 1 quarter, any defensive back for 1 quarter, and then any defensive player for 1 quarter. It is completely my discretion each game as to who I will use and when (Game 2 of 2022 season). Last edited by Deegeezy; 04-05-2020 at 12:06 PM. |

Tulane Green Wave History (pre-Dynasty Report)  Tulane and LSU played to a 0-0 tie in 1914 on Thanksgiving Day. Football HistoryThe Tulane Green Wave football program is an NCAA Division I FBS football team that represents Tulane University in New Orleans. Established in 1893, the team is a member of Conference USA (1996 to present), a former member of the Southeastern Conference (1933 to 1965), and was a NCAA Division I-A Independent from 1966 to 1995. It currently plays its home games off-campus in the Louisiana Superdome. Tulane's earliest athletic traditions are tied to its football team, which began playing in 1893 and hit its stride in 1900 with a perfect 5–0 season, beating the Southern Athletic Club, Alabama, Millsaps, LSU, and Ole Miss. In a 1912 game against Southwestern Louisiana, Tulane set records of 15 rushing touchdowns and 95 points that still stand. In 1925 the Green Wave again went undefeated, with only a tie against Missouri to blemish its record. The administration declined a Rose Bowl invitation, however, in order to keep the students in class.

From 1893 to 1919, the athletic teams of Tulane were known as the Olive and Blue for the official school colors. In 1919, the Tulane Weekly, one of Tulane's many student newspapers at the time, began referring to the football team as the "Greenbacks". Prior to that, the teams were known officially as "The Olive and Blue" and unofficially referred to as "The Greenies" or "The Greenbacks." Logo & Mascot History    In 1963 the Athletics Director and Eldon Endacott, manager of the university bookstore contacted Art Evans, a commercial artist who already had designed the Boilermaker mascot for Purdue University, the Wisconsin Badgers and the University of Southern California Trojan, to create a new mascot for Tulane athletics. His design for a mean-looking anthropomorphic wave-crest was officially adopted in 1964. In 1986 a new logo consisting of a white block "T" with green and blue waves crossing its center was adopted as the primary symbol for official uniforms, though the "angry wave" continued to be used unofficially in licensed products, and a costumed Green Wave, nicknamed Gumby, served as the mascot. In 1998 a full redesign of all athletics logos and marks was commissioned which replaced the "angry wave" and "wavy T" designs with a green and blue oblique T crested by a foamy wave. Gumby was replaced with a new pelican mascot, recalling the university seal, and the fact that a pelican was often used in the first half of the century as the emblem of Tulane's athletics teams. The name "Riptide" was selected for the performing pelican by the administration after a vote of the student body in which the students actually voted that the pelican be named "Pecker." The pelican mascot name may have been so voted as the student body had also overwhelmingly voted for Poseidon to be the mascot. Poseidon was rejected by the administration and student body government because it could be portrayed as a white male. Fan Traditions- At the end of the national anthem, fans make a slight alteration to the words, replacing "home of the brave" with "home of the Wave." - The Green "Wave": At the Tulane-TCU football game on August 30, 2003, a student and some classmates started the Green "Wave" tradition at Tulane. The student supplied green gloves for the student body to wear at the game, and the fellow Tulane students then waved goodbye with their green hands every time the opposing offense left the field. This tradition was picked up by the Tulane University Athletics Department in 2005. It is used in a similar manner to the Tomahawk Chop or Gator Chomp. Rivalries LSU TigersTulane's biggest and oldest rival is LSU. It began in 1893 with a 34-0 Green Wave victory over the Tigers. Since then the teams have met nearly every year in the Battle for the Rag. After Tulane left the SEC, the rivalry became less competitive. In 1973, Tulane broke a 25-game losing streak with a 14-0 victory in front of a Tulane Stadium record crowd of 86,598 in the final installment of the long-time rivalry played on Tulane's campus. Between 1979 and 1982, Tulane won three out of four games against the Tigers; the 1982 win was the last win to date. LSU has defeated the Green Wave a whopping 18 consecutive times since Tulane's 31-28 win in Baton Rouge in '82. Southern Miss Golden Eagles Known as the Battle for the Bell, Tulane's rivalry with Southern Miss is mainly a product of Conference USA. The teams played each other annually until 2006, when the league was split into two divisions. Tulane is 7-22 all-time against Southern Miss and have lost their last five games against their conference rival. The Green Wave's last victory in the rivalry came in November of 2002, a 31-10 win at the Superdome. Notable Sports AlumniSeveral football alumni are players in the National Football League, including Patrick Ramsey (Denver Broncos), J.P. Losman (Oakland Raiders), Anthony Cannon (Detroit Lions), Mewelde Moore (Pittsburgh Steelers), and Matt Forté (Chicago Bears). Several baseball alumni play in the Major Leagues, including Andy Cannizaro (Cleveland Indians), Tommy Manzella (Houston Astros), and Micah Owings (Cincinnati Reds). Fight SongOfficial fight song: "The Olive and the Blue" (aka "Roll On, Tulane") Here's a song for the Olive and the Blue Here's a cheer for the team that's tried and true, Here's a pledge of loyalty to thee, Oh, Tulane Varsity, Here's to the Greenbacks that never will say die And here's to the hearts that are true, To the men of Tulane, who are fighting for her name For the Olive and the Blue. (CHORUS) Roll, Green Wave, roll them down the field! Hold, Green Wave, that line must never yield! When those Greenbacks charge through the line, They're bound for Victory, Hail Green Wave, for you we give a cheer. Hail Green Wave, for you we have no fear, So ev'ry man on ev'ry play, And then we'll win the game today, Hurrah for Old Tulane.

Tulane Green Wave Home Stadium THE MERCEDES-BENZ SUPERDOME  Facts & FiguresLocation: 1500 Poydras Street, New Orleans, LA 70112 Opened: August 3, 1975 Owner: The State of Louisiana Surface: Sportexe Momentum 41 (field turf) Construction Cost: $134 million Architect: Curtis & Davis Tenants: New Orleans Saints, Tulane Green Wave, Sugar Bowl, New Orleans Bowl Capacity: 72,968 HistoryHome of the New Orleans Saints and the Tulane Green Wave, the Mercedes-Benz Superdome is one of the NFL’s biggest stadiums. In the mid 1960’s New Orleans businessman Dave Dixon envisioned a dome stadium that could bring a football team to the area. In 1966, his vision became a reality after much discussion and planning, the Louisiana Legislature passed a bill that allowed the stadium to be built.  After reaching an agreement to build a stadium, the NFL awarded the area a team, the New Orleans Saints. Construction began in August of 1971, and was completed by August 1975. The dome stadium was named the Superdome, because of its massive size. The Mercedes-Benz Superdome covers 13 acres and is 27 stories tall. From the outside it looks like a massive spaceship. A seminal moment in the history of Tulane football occurred following the 1974 season, when the Green Wave moved all of its home games to the new Superdome in downtown New Orleans and left their former on-campus home venue, Tulane Stadium . Tulane has the dubious distinction of being the only Division I-A football team ever to move from a larger, on-campus stadium to a smaller, off-campus stadium. Tulane Stadium was subsequently demolished in 1980. While Tulane has had the benefit of playing in a first class facility under a controlled environment in the Superdome, many are critical of the 'Dome's sterile atmosphere, arguing it is not conducive to a real college football environment. As a part of the school's agreement to abandon on-campus Tulane Stadium, the Green Wave leases the Mercedes-Benz Superdome rent-free, giving the school's football team all-the-more reason to stay in the non-traditional college football venue.    -

Reggie Moore Dedication Page    Reggie Moore, a 4-star recruit in 2014 out of Schriever, La., electrified Tulane fans for four seasons, both running the ball and catching the ball, and was also a major factor in the return game. Moore's career would start off with a bang right away, as he scored on the very first touch of his career, taking the opening kickoff in his debut game versus Idaho 90 yards for a touchdown as a true freshman. Moore's greatest moment came when he caught the game-winning touchdown to help the Green Wave win its first ever national title in 2016. Moore, who finished his collegiate career with a perfect 25-0 record in games played at the Superdome, became the school's first ever Heisman winner in 2017. Following the 2017 season, Tulane head coach D. Geezy announced that Moore's #25 jersey will be retired. This page serves as an honor to the greatness that was Reggie Moore.   Career Rushing Stats  Career Receiving Stats  Career Kick Returning Stats * - Missed five games due to injury ~ - career school record "THE CATCH"     With his team trailing 26-22 versus defending national champion Penn State in the 2016 BCS National Championship Game in Miami, QB Jamie Manning found RB Reggie Moore, who lined up in the slot, for a 6-yard touchdown pass on a 3rd and goal slant pattern with 0:02 remaining to give the Green Wave a 29-26 lead and help deliver the team's first ever national title.  2017 Heisman Memorial Trophy Winner  RB Reggie Moore's Heisman season stats84 car 437 yds 8 tds | 73 rec 802 yds 18 tds | 19 kr 504 yds 1 td Last edited by Deegeezy; 04-05-2020 at 12:07 PM. |
