Here's your weekend link roundup of Green Wave stories. Since last week...

1. Ed Conroy gets another addition to next year's freshman class. LA Times reports that Josh Hearlihy, a Harvard-Westlake product, will be taking his talent to New Orleans. He's 6'7" and formerly was headed to play for Utah. Here's the full story on JH.

2. Yulman Stadium, the new on-campus football facility, is on its way to 2014 completion, according to the Times Pic. Pretty aggressive construction schedule, all things considered. Couple of interesting quotes on the new stadium as a recruiting tool.

3. Tulane QB Ryan Griffin made the front page of NFL.com. See that here. In a story about the "diamonds in the rough" of this year's draft class, they cite Griffin as a talented passer who could make waves in his NFL future.

4. Roll Bama Roll announces that former Tulane guard Ricky Tarrant is officially signed to the Crimson Tide. So it goes. That's all I have to say there.

5. Here's Peter Woullard's Instagram announcing his decision to play football for the Green Wave. Woo social media. Full story on the St. Augustine recruit here.
Coach Ed Conroy has signed a fourth 2013 recruit for Tulane basketball. Josh Hearlihy, a 6'7" prep school prospect, has committed to join the Green Wave.

Hearlihy originally committed to Utah earlier in his senior year, but eventually his college search turned to Davidson, Tulane, and Santa Clara.

Adam Finkelstein, northeast recruiting czar for ESPN, confirmed it here: 
Make sure to follow Fear the Wave on Twitter. 

Check out the video below of Hearlihy from his season at Northfield Mount Hermon. He previously played out west for the Harvard-Westlake School in Los Angeles. 

Kid is a scorer inside with some mid-range ability to boot. Looks like a much-needed late signing period addition for the Green Wave.

Other Buzz:
And the commitments just keep coming for coach Curtis Johnson. Tulane added another commit to its high school class of 2014 after Peter Woullard of St. Augustine joined the program earlier today.

At 6'3" and 240 pounds, Woullard attracted interest as a defensive end/defensive tackle for the Louisiana program. You can check out his highlight reel below.

Woullard received interest from a variety of elite programs, including Ole Miss and Florida State. In the end, he'll prove to be another Louisiana player bringing his talent to Tulane.

This marks the second Louisiana pickup for CJ in the past week. Tulane secured Sean Wilson out of South Plaquemines for the 2014 class as well.
