TU Football Media Day

Some observations from TU football media day today:

Everybody has very high expectations from Braylin Presley.

Bryce Bray is a TU grad. So obviously, he is eligible.

Polizzi is impressive.

Wilson has been impressed with DE's Kopenski, Malone, and Neilsen.

C.J. Turner, Luke McGary, and Tyler Rich are all likely to get playing time as true freshmen.

Wilson likes what Darrell Simpson has done in summer, dropping from 368 to 343 pounds.

I enjoyed talking with all the TU players that were available.

Feature articles will start soon on TU players leading up to the season.

Ben Kopenski

Have not seen anything official, but he is a DE from OSU and several are saying he has transferred to Tulsa. He did enter the portal......Hope you did grab him, he is a former walkon, one of those guy who if he was 3 inches taller everyone would have recruited him, he is around 6-0 255 and plays like he is mad at everyone, one of my favorite players. He felt he didn't fit our new defense. He was on scholarship last year at OSU and was a huge spark in a couple games, I think he could be all conference if he had a full time spot.........if he did transfer to Tulsa, congratulations, if not ....hope you enjoyed the story.......he was one of those great walk ons....hated to see him go!

The Founding Fathers: demagogues, and institutions

“The only path to a subversion of the republican system of the Country is, by flattering the prejudices of the people, and exciting their jealousies and apprehensions, to throw affairs into confusion, and bring on civil commotion,” Alexander Hamilton wrote in 1790. “When a man unprincipled in private life, desperate in his fortune, bold in his temper…is seen to mount the hobby horse of popularity,” Hamilton warned, “he may ‘ride the storm and direct the whirlwind.’”

Tulsa to play in Seattle against Washington Huskies in 2023

Media release...

TULSA, Okla. ––The University Tulsa has agreed to play a one-game series in football against the Pacific-12 Conference's Washington Huskies. The game is scheduled for September 9, 2023 at 70,138-seat Husky Stadium in Seattle, Washington.

It will be the first-ever meeting between the two schools on the gridiron.

Washington is coming off of a 10-4 season that saw the Huskies win the Pac-12 title and finish the campaign ranked 13thnationally.

Washington has been a member of the Pac-12 since the league was first formed as the Pacific Coast Conference in 1915, and then after disbanding and becoming the modern-day Pac-12 Conference in 1959.

Tulsa has faced four of the current Pac-12 members but played only Oregon when the school was a member of the league. Tulsa and Oregon faced-off in the 1989 Independence Bowl. Tulsa has also faced Arizona twice (1958, 1960), Colorado (1969) and Utah four times (1948, 1997, 1997, 2006), but it was before those schools became members of the Pac-12 Conference.
