"That is why while doing my Albineaux research, I had to look at why his predecessor failed."
Predecessor: one that precedes ;especially : a person who has previously occupied a position or office to which another has succeeded.
Propaganda: information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view.
There has been no mascot since Cayenne, subsequently there is no mascot that has succeeded Cayenne.
Your words are intentionally selective and lead the uninformed to believe that the UL mascot is in fact a white alligator which is simply not true.
But I'm sure you will clarify this in future social media posts.
The alligator has always been Louisiana's mascot.
The only question is when will it be the game day sideline spirit leader?
Whatever mascot is decided upon, there should be at least two people (four would be better for football) that switch in/out of the mascot costume at the end of each half/quarter.
Each person could put their own spin on how the mascot behaves. The crowd would never know the person inside the costume changed, but the different behavior from each person would keep things fresh throughout the game. Also (due to heat), I am not sure if anyone could make it through a whole football game at the beginning of the season.
GEAUX CAJUNS!
our best mascot was still the Cajun Man even if snowflakes said it was racist, of course somehow in the US coon ass became a racist word even though the people who it refers to don't see it that way
Great idea GreatestStory
I thought it failed simply because it looked stupid.
Stupid is relative. See the list below.

It's all about what works, and Cayenne was well on his way to becoming the next crazy mascot to make it big:

I WILL rise again.
The pepper didn't have what it takes.
What it had, didn't work.
Personally it failed because it did not work.
Cayenne is some New York, view of what Cajun really is.
It never really resonated with the fans. I personally think it was some idea of a bad Salsa mascot.
When i think of peppers j think of NM not Louisiana. Plus it was very difficult to market. It was not funny, or ferocious. It came off like a joke. Thats why it never worked in my opinion.
In my line of work we go through alot rural and alot of wilderness. One thing that alot of Engineers and Conductors point out specially if there from Arkansas is they want to see a gator and when tbey do they get all excited “did you see that gator in that ditch or that bayou in that river.” There was a 8 foot gator laying across the tracks . Also i can coach them on how to say Atchafalaya
Gator is a perfect mascot it is ferocious but could be a fun loving character for kids, and it is something that is very relatable, marketable, mainstream, and most importantly it identifies with our culture. People associate a gator when they think of Louisiana. Specially South Louisiana.
Thats why Swamp People was such a big hit.
