First class!

Thanks,

Kal:

I'm from Lafayette. My wife is a native Iotian, Gott's Cove to be exact.

Rhineaux:

I'm part of that new guest editorial staff for the Daily Advertiser. It's a rotation where my op/eds appear once every three weeks, and I wasn't scheduled to appear until next Thursday. However, I begged the lady who was scheduled for today to switch with me so I could have this one in print for Homecoming. She was happy to, but be warned. The reason she wanted to switch is because her upcoming editorial is about the need for UL (to not) play LSU!!

The rest of my stuff, with the exception of a New Orleans Bowl op/ed if we make it, will be on Louisiana politicis.

She'll have to be real savvy to go down that trail and not step in her own poop.

That was a great piece, Nick! Very enjoyable. Keep up the good work. Hopefully, you can take a break from the political stuff to address the Cajuns' achievements again in the near future...maybe something they're doing say... in New Orleans?

Nice job Nick. Keep pushing our Cajuns.

We've missed you the last couple of years in our Erath 4th of July Run. Try to make it back next year.

Your race director and fellow alum.

Skeeter, is that you?

I don't like racing unless I'm in shape, something I haven't been for about 2 years now. Now my wife is due in April, so getting into shape for July could be tough, but hey, maybe I'll give it a shot.

Two names symbolize UL's track and field program: Bob Cole, for those who have been around the program for a long time, and Charles Lancon, for those whose Ragin' Cajun experiences are more recent. Now both of them are gone, and it's time to put their names where they belong ... over the entrance to the Cajuns' track facility just off Bertrand Drive. Lancon left us in 2002, in the middle of his 13th year as UL's track coach following an already-legendary three-decade career in the local prep ranks. Cole retired in 1984 after two decades of running the Cajun program, and spent most of his time since then fishing Toledo Bend and tending his gardens until his health deteriorated over the last few weeks.
