2013 Staking a Claim for Louisiana

Good editorial, and his son went to LSU. Good to have Mr. Briggs in our corner, showing support for UL athletics.

Always nice to have Mr. Briggs in our corner.

I noticed that too. All Decker did was give the North LA whiners more ammo, and they're able to point the finger and say, "Hey, even their local paper doesn't support them!".

His "piece" ran as a "guest editorial" in the Newsstar.....

He knows UL and Lafayette has probably done more to support the O&G business than another University in the state.

ULM for 1st time since moving up to 1-A with Browning back is hands down better than LTUR. Even have a much better shot at going to a bowl. Instead of finally enjoying their year to sticking it to LTUR.....Tabby has their fan base worked up about what UL has been calling themselves for nearly 15 years. You'd swear she's a LTUR supporter and purposefully letting their fan base miss the fact they are having the best year over LTUR in decades.

What should be a joyous and fun year for them in NE La.......has been turned into what they do when they suck. Whine. Whine. Whine.

This thread has 45,000 plus views! That has to be a record of some sort. A whole lot of not caring going on.

It's also the umpteen threads on the topic this past week combined!

Hey Turbine! What happened here? I was just getting warmed up. I was going to sideline the thread when I was ready. I wasn't ready yet. I'm watching the World Series!

Just kidding... good call on the split.

[Turbine]

Simple. Elegant. Honest. Factual.

+1

Quite a nice gesture.

Which means portions of this thread have been read this many umpteen times.

“We’re not trying to change the name of the university in any shape,” Martin told NOLA.com/The Times-Picayune. He said a plan to drop “Lafayette” isn’t in the works, and was surprised at reports that said it was happening. The confusion appears ...

The rest of the story ...

I hear crickets.
