The last game of the season is approaching and the University Of Tulsa has been given an opportunity to go the extra mile in honoring our coach and his sister Lulu.

My thoughts are the University Of Tulsa has 7000 shirts made.

front says LuLu for team Captain

back has a heart with quote of Pam Haith "Her voice forever rings in our hearts and ears."

then the school has a TU jersey with Lulu on the back

these are the type of story's that you see on CBS during the NCAA tournament.

My prayers for Lulu

I think it should just be a blue shirt with "Lulu" in gold letters. That says all you need to say.

While I'm all for TU doing something nice in this situation, I don't think they need to try and capitalize on a tragedy to get exposure during the NCAA Tournament.

I don't think he said anything indicating he wanted to pervert the story for attention. Just a remark that these are stories you see in March. Either way, I would like to see TU and its fans do something nice and supportive for Coach Haith.

Im on board with honoring Coach Haith and his family. Not to exploit tourney but to show our support for him and his family. What a great job Haith has done with this team in my opinion. Never thought we would be 19-7 and 11-2 at this point of the season. To be in a position to possibly dance with the weaknesses this team has is pretty impressive.
I think the whole staff should have our full support this year and especially if you think about what coach Haith has been going through in dealing with his very close sister. My prayers remain with Frank and his family.
I will proudly wear a shirt supporting LULU and her family.

I'd gladly pay a fee for that shirt if the money were going to go to her family(kids) to help them out at this time.

The bigger picture here is that Tulsa, the city and the University has always willing to support those in need.
I think this would have a huge effect in both showing our Coach we have his back, and show the rest of Lulu's family they are in our hearts, and on our minds.

Who cares if CBS picks it up and runs a story with it? THAT isn't why we are doing it.

We would be doing it because that is what Family does. And #TUNation is all about Family!

Well said BAS. After what Coach Haith experienced at Mizzou and how quick their AD jumped ship on him, he needs to know Dr. Gragg, the entire university community, alumni, and fans are behind him as a person and then as a coach.

I'd also be happy to make some sort of donation.

Maybe that can be an option even though the shirts are free?

LuLuLemon would probably poop in the punch bowl and do some sort of cease & desist.

In hindsight, we should've all issued a C&D with those dumb uCONN'T but hurriCANe shirts

I don't care about the CBS thing either, I brought that up in the post to point out that we see these types of stories of student bodies and fans supporting there coach in the worst of times... why cant we do the same? I feel this University can go above and beyond to show frank we got your back!

This needs to happen. Cincinnati is coming to town and i can think of no better time to pack that house with fans pouring out support for Franks family then the last game of the season.

Missouri did everything to paint Frank as a bad guy but since being here the guy has been great and i have yet to meet one person that has had a bad thing to say about the guy. lets show him how much he means to us.

P.s I would pay $10 for a shirt if i knew it was going to Lulu and her kids. just saying!
