Welcome to Uptown: The Wave's in season Hard Knocks

Marcelo Unda • September 21, 2023

Inside look in to the Wave.

Today it was announce ESPN would be premiering an in-season documentary with the Tulane Football Team called Welcome to Uptown. I was surprised to see that ESPN and Tulane were willing to produce this type of content. Fritz is playing chess, folks. Not checkers. This will be a recruiting tool to show what he's built at Tulane that has lead to success and the stability in the football program for college football.


I am interested to see what this series will bring. Maybe we get rep for South Alabama week 1.  Michael Pratt dealing with his injury, and how he is as a teammate. How Coach Fritz prepared for Tulane hosting Ole Miss. Also, it would be awesome to see the players enjoying Uptown at places like Superior Seafood and Rock and Bowl. If there is multiple episodes, maybe we can see some players going to see the insane Halloween decorations at some of the St. Charles homes. ESPN should promote the players and allow us to get to know them so we can learn who these players are.


Be sure to tune in to Welcome to Uptown premieres at 5 pm ct on ESPN+

Team Stats (Trail Blazers at Pelicans) Final Score: 120-143 Rebounds: 419-57 Assists: 27-36 Blocks: 7-8 Steals: 5-10 Turnovers: 15-8 Stat Leaders Scoring Leaders: Shaedon Sharpe, 21; Trey Murphy III, 24 Rebound Leaders: Kris Murray, 9; Yves Missi, Saddiq Bey, 8 Assist Leaders: Deni Avdija, 6; Derik Queen, 7 My Player of the Game: Derik Queen Chrissy's Key Takeaways * The Pelicans have won their fourth game of the season. Yay ! * Jordan Poole was back tonight and he made a world of difference. His three-point shooting, confidence, and leadership were a ton of help. * Derik Queen is a problem for all other 29 teams in this league. This kid has a vision that hasn't been seen in any recent rookies, especially for a center. * Bryce McGowens was the second-leading scorer in this game with 23 points. He's stepped up in a big way. * In surprising news, Zion Williamson is questionable for Sunday's game at the Chicago Bulls. This is the first time in what seems like years that Zion's health is actually improving much sooner than projected. Whether this is a sign of Zion pushing himself or James Borrego pushing him, it's nice to see. Follow @TheKneaux on X, and follow me there too, @SportsChrissy.
