The past couple of days, a public relations "war of words" has been volleyed between the New Orleans Saints organization and Mayor of New Orleans - caught in the middle is the Who Dat Nation. Saints fans prefer to attend games inside of the Mercedes-Benz Superdome. But, having a chance to "be in the number" at Tiger Stadium would not be a bad choice for Who Dats as well.

Mayor Latoya Cantrell has made it clear - the Saints can not host home games with fan attendance inside the Mercedes-Benz Superdome because of the health concerns surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic. She is not opposed to the Saints moving their home games to LSU's Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, LA.

The City of New Orleans will move to Phase 3.2 on Saturday. The new phase will allow more attendance seating in outside stadiums (not indoor arenas) for high schools and recreational events. Her administration mentioned the city is not ready to have 20,000 fans in an indoor stadium (like the Superdome) and rejected the Saints' latest proposal - for now.

Former New Orleans Saints running back Reggie Bush is set to reunite with his Heisman Trophy after 14 years.

Bush forfeited his Heisman in 2010 after an investigation was launched by the NCAA into USC and concluded that the former Trojans running back received improper benefits during his time with USC.

In a new world of college football that now includes NIL deals for student-athletes that pay players for their image and likeliness, many fans have demanded the NCAA return the Heisman Trophy to Bush for his legendary season where he rushed for 1,740 yards and 16 touchdowns on 200...

With the official start of the 2024 NFL Draft just a day away, rumors and smokescreens are starting to surround the lands. Some of them, not so good for the New Orleans Saints if true.

Teams potentially moving up for OT

Just recently today, NFL Network’s Daniel Jeremiah tweeted out that many of his phone calls involved teams potentially moving up for an offensive tackle in round one.

If this in fact were to be true, it begs the question of what does a team like the Saints do in this scenario?

The Saints are the most tackle-needy team in the entire league at the moment meaning that...

Vontae Mack, no matter what.

Those were the words that officially got me hooked on the NFL Draft, even if it was from a movie. The 2014 movie Draft Day starring Kevin Costner was the biggest reason I see the draft the way I do now: as a national holiday. Immediately after seeing the movie, I began formulating my first ever mock draft. This year, I am as excited as ever for one of my favorite days of the year.

Reasons just like mine are why the NFL drafts is as big as it is. It’s managed to strike a personal connection with fans across the country and hold a sentimental value to many. All...

It’s about time: ESPN’s Pete Thamel reports that the Heisman Trust will return Reggie Bush’s Heisman Trophy. The former New Orleans Saints running back won that trophy in 2005 after an outstanding three-year run with the USC Trojans, but was forced to forfeit it in 2010 after an NCAA investigation slammed the school for improper recruiting violations.

Thamel adds that an announcement from the Heisman Trust is coming on Wednesday, in which this unprecedented “reinstatement” of Bush’s trophy will be chalked up to “enormous changes in the college football landscape.” Name, image, and...

Good for Reggie Bush. The former New Orleans Saints running back and USC Trojans star will have the Heisman Trophy he won in 2005 returned to him, per ESPN’s Pete Thamel, following a yearslong process of “deliberation” at the Heisman Trust. Bush forfeited the Heisman Trophy in 2010 following an investigation into improper recruiting benefits he received during his career at USC from 2003 to 2005.

Bush probably has a lot to say now that he’s won this unprecedented victory. For now, though, all we have is a brief and carefully-worded statement shared with ESPN.

“Personally, I’m thrilled to...
