AP Poll and the Name mixup

What is our SID doing?

He decided to be cute with his "ESPN-Bristol" comments.

How about fixing crap like this?

Nothing to be ashamed of in the AP mistake ... unless you work for UL marketing.

Ah...you and I must have ESP this morning. I JUST posted about that for a new thread.

Feel free to delete the thread I just started if you don't want duplication.

What does he have to do with their screw up?

How does that logo mishap keep happening? You'd think an organization like ESPN or the AP sports writers, who's job IS sports, would know that logo of a Division 1 college football program.

[Cajun90]

I'd guess he is doing his job and not trolling the internet all day long looking for misrepresentation of our name, logo, mascot, etc.

Through the years I've had the opportunity to see what the SID's at UL do and while I'm sure he doesn't like this anymore than you do I can assure you searching the internet for this type of stuff doesn't make his top 100 things to do list. Heck that could be a full time job for us. It really is an almost thankless job and saying limited resources doesn't even begin to describe the workload.

[Cajunrunner]

I would imagine the AP has been using this as our logo all season long, no?

[Cajunrunner]

If making sure other media outlets represent our program correctly and not get us mixed up with other schools is not his job, then I apologize.

I would think it's got to be someone's responsibility within the university to make sure a major outlet like AP doesn't put the Lafayette College logo on our team page profile.

This is when you put your legal team on that arse!

[Geaux]

Again...it is time for Farmer to get a legal team on board if this keep happening. Go after the SBC, ESPN and all other that will not fall in line.

This is a Martin Hall creation.

If the SID can force Martin Hall to quit pimping the @ instead of the "who" you will have a point and I will be grateful.

[CajunRed]

I'm not sure who's job it is, but I would say correcting something like this is more important than worrying about what some on a message board say about a reporter from Monroe.

Why is the thread open?? We're not ranked. And only receiving 6 votes in coaches poll
