Last week, strong safety David Skeehan, a former walk- on, and middle linebacker Evan Lee earned the starting nod. Punt Returns (0) - 20+ yards Four Green Wave players earned their fi rst collegiate start against Houston in the season opener. Junior left guard Aryan Barto was the only fi rst time starter on offense, while sophomores Sean Carney (DE), James Dillard (LB) and junior Louis Thomas (DB) were fi rst time starters on defense.

TIES THAT BIND: - Senior quarterback Lester Ricard originally signed with LSU out of high school and was a member of the team as a freshman in 2002, where he received a redshirt season. He transferred to Tulane the following season. - A total of three Green Wave plays call Baton Rouge home, including senior defensive end Taylor Bertin, junior defensive back O’Lindsey Brown and freshman linebacker Adam Kwentua.

WHAT CAN BROWN DO FOR YOU? • Preston Brown picked up where he left last season. In the 2006 season open- er at Houston, Brown caught Tulane’s fi rst pass and fi nished the game with four catches for 32 yards with a long of 17 yards. Dating back to last season, Brown had caught a pass in 12 straight games and now has 51 career receptions for 762 yards and six touchdowns. However, his streak was snapped at Mississippi State as he was held catchless by the Bulldog defense. Not bad for a player, who had never caught a collegiate pass prior to his ju- nior season. He spent his freshman and sophomore campaign primarily on special teams before having a breakout season a year ago with 47 receptions for 720 yards to lead the team in both categories.

WELCOME TO COLLEGE FOOTBALL: • A total of 13 Green Wave players made the fi rst collegiate appearances of their careers against Houston, including nine true freshmen and four redshirt freshman. The red-shirt players include Chris Dunn (WR), David Kirksey (LB), John Landa (OL) and James McMurchy (LB). The nine newcomers were Travis Burks (DB), Chinonso Echebelem (DB), Lo- gan Kelly (DE), Adam Kwentua (LB), Josh Mitzel (LB), Oscar Ponce de Leon (DT), Cody Sparks (DE), Ross Thevenot (K) and Alex Wacha (CB).

TULANE FACES SEVEN BOWL TEAMS IN 2006: • Tulane will face one of the most diffi cult schedules in school history and per- haps the most demanding in college football this season with seven opponents who participated in bowl games a year ago. In non-conference action, TU faces Auburn (Citrus Bowl), LSU (Peach Bowl), and Conference USA rivals Houston (Fort Worth Bowl), Southern Miss (New Orleans Bowl), Tulsa (Liberty Bowl), UTEP (GMAC Bowl) and UCF (Hawai’i Bowl). The seven 2006 opponents combined for a 3-4 postseason record.
