Tulane reportedly has a new quarterback on campus with BYU's Jake Retzlaff transferring to play for the Green Wave as a walk-on this season, according to ESPN's Pete Thamel. Retzlaff led BYU to an 11-2 record last season as he completed 213 of 368 pass attempts for 2,947 yards, 20 touchdowns and 12 interceptions.

Tulane knows a little about Ole Miss. The two programs have faced each other 67 times, dating back to when both were members of the SEC. The Rebels have a 40-27 edge in the series. The Rebels have also won 13 of the 15 matchups in Oxford, and that's where this year's game will be held.

The talent influx could make the Wave contenders for the American Athletic Conference regular season title, an NCAA at-large berth and perhaps more.

One-time Union-Endicott pitching standout Jude Abbadessa has made it to the next level, playing Division I, but will now be heading off to New Orleans, Louisiana, to continue his collegiate career. Abbadessa’s now set to take the mound for the Tulane Green Wave.
