Description

Dattitude premiered in September 2021 to focus on what's important to sports fans in south Louisiana. While we focus on the Saints, we also talk plenty about the Pelicans, LSU, Tulane, Prep, sports betting, fantasy sports and all the big-time sports events happening in and around New Orleans. Host Jim Derry brings more than 33 years of experience covering sports in the region, and he'll "always tell you the way it is ... or at least the way he THINKS it is."

It felt like old times in the Superdome on Sunday, as the New Orleans Saints whooped up on the hapless New York Jets. Was it the swan song in the Dome for Cam Jordan, Demario Davis and Taysom Hill?

Host Jim Derry also will talk about Tulane falling to Ole Miss in the CFP.
It's the final home game of 2025 for the New Orleans Saints, so can they continue their solid play? And can Tulane pull off maybe the college football upset of the year vs. Ole Miss in the CFP?

It's still 2025, but we're already getting a glimpse of who might be big for the New Orleans Saints in 2026. Everyone seems to be focusing on Tyler Shough, but the defense is shaping up nicely.

Even the most skeptical of skeptics are starting to believe Tyler Shough could be the quarterback of the future for the New Orleans Saints after their comeback win - and sweep - Sunday of the Carolina Panthers. Let's see if that's the sentiment of the 'Dat Family' on another Mano E Monday edition of Dattitude (Ep. 451) presented by Evangeline Securities.

Is Tyler Shough the answer at QB long term for the New Orleans Saints? Following the team's 24-21 upset win at Tampa Bay, it certainly has to be looked upon as a real possibility. We dive deep into that on another Mano E Monday edition of Dattitude (Ep. 448) presented by Evangeline Securities, and we also talk about Tulane promoting from within after whiffing on LSU DC Blake Baker.
It looks like LSU defensive coordinator Blake Baker is set to leave the Tigers and head to Tulane to replace Jon Sumrall as coach, and that would put Lane Kiffin in his first dilemma in Baton Rouge. How will that affect each team? NOLA.com assistant sports editor Zach Ewing is here to talk about that and preview Saints at Bucs on Friday's Dattitude (Ep. 447) presented by Evangeline Securities.
While incoming LSU football coach Lane Kiffin is working on his staff, early signing day and the opening of the transfer portal window, outgoing Tulane coach Jon Sumrall is trying to focus on this week's American Conference title game.

What will fans and friends have to say? Let's find out on a Mano E Monday edition of Dattitude (Ep. 445) presented by Evangeline Securities.
Lane Kiffin is compiling a staff to go with him to LSU, according to multiple media outlets, while Nick Saban all but said Saturday morning on ESPN his former offensive coordinator is leaving Ole Miss.

Also, we'll briefly preview Saints at Dolphins, and whether Coach Kellen Moore will take the reins off QB Tyler Shough.
Lane Kiffin still is the head football coach at Ole Miss. However, just about every credible report has him coming to LSU - possibly as soon as Saturday morning.

It was clear to see during the New Orleans Saints' 24-10 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, that feel-good period is gone. And LSU? They beat Western Kentucky by 3. Whoop-de-doo.

There's plenty to talk about with fans and friends on a Mano E Monday edition of Dattitude (Ep. 442) presented by Evangeline Securities.
Lane Kiffin reportedly is meeting with Ole Miss athletic director Keith Carter on Friday, and the big question is: Will that be the definitive get-together to determine Kiffin's future?
