No football championship banner but I’m surprised with the R-1 banner hanging up in the Cajundome hasn’t been mentioned yet.
Never, ever seen that in a basketball arena.

No football championship banner but I’m surprised with the R-1 banner hanging up in the Cajundome hasn’t been mentioned yet.
Never, ever seen that in a basketball arena.
I can't remember if it was after win one or win two early this football season, that Michael Desormeaux was downplaying the accomplishments of last years team as far as connecting it to this year's team.
It makes me wonder if his desire to separate the two, ultimatly led to the lack of recognition.
The silence is huge mistake from every angle.
Should of been done the first game, absolute no brainer.Quote:

Yet, Saturday the point was made several times that this senior class was a huge part of the most successful four years Ragin' Cajun Football has ever experienced.Quote:

Isnt graduation held at cajundome? seems appropriate to have an R1 banner at graduation. now to nickpick as to whether it needs to keep getting pulled up and down i am indifferent as to that. but taking it down each time could risk damage and/or misplacing it prior to the next graduationQuote:

This is such a bad fumble by Maggard, it should show up in the season turnover stats...
Why wasnt more made about a football banner (or lack there of) sooner? Not sure ive seen a football banner in other stadiums though? Where should it be, how many others are there?Quote:

Now as far as the statue for most wins by a coach in sunbelt history, that should certainly be in the quad, not the cajundome. Although those in favor of roof of Martin Hall could make a sound argumentQuote:

where is that banner for title from 52 years ago?
There is no banner of any sorts with anything to do with FB at CF. There is some paint on the concrete beams between seats and concessions mentioning it...You'll have to look up and then start running into people...As far as sooner, its been mentioned on and off this board as well as RR for a good while now. It's gotten comical...
Isn't there something on the wall near the walkway to the 2nd level entrance?Quote:

Also if the title is from 52 years ago, (1970?) Wasnt first Cajun Field game not until 1971? So should banner be at McNaspy?
How about all of our bowl championship wins? We can put a banner or a sign in CF for these(at least the ones we did not have to vacate) along with the 2020 Co SBC Championship and the 2021 SBC Championship at Cajun Field. Hoping this comes with the renovation that is total silence now.
McNaspy was destroyed many years ago...Quote:
