2014 Branding Fiasco: UL-Lafayette or UL-L (SBC Reference Guide)

[CajunAlum10]

We were always referred to as SW Louisiana and on air called Southwest Louisiana

Can we change to University of South Louisiana? USL? South Florida -- USF, South Alabama -- USA

I seriously wouldn't mind this at all. I like it.

Apparently we have no idea what we want!

[FeelDaRage]

I thought Ragin Cajun pride was about fighting for what you want.

[CajunAlum10]

How about University of Acadiana -- UA. Then we can really get Under Armour on board, right? While we're at it, let's steal Under Armour's logo, since we have no originality anyways.

You don't speak for everybody.

[CajunAlum10]

You don't speak for everybody.

Oh really? Yea that's why I said "I" and not "All cajun fans". Besides, it's not meant to be taken serious. I think if we try to change again at this point it would be a complete debacle and make us the laughing stock of the state.

We need to own our name and not give a rat's azz what people think.. just win and move up.

Thanks for the heads-up T-Joe. Even my proctologist gives me a warning before he jams his finger up my ___ and tells the nurse to take a picture. Thanks again for the heads-up.

I'll have to think about this a little while and see how to square things up with you.

"And I'm waiting, to some extent," he added, "for that to be finalized." The Cajun athletic program prefers "UL" to "ULL." It encourages the use of "Louisiana" over "Louisiana-Lafayette." It abhors the incorrect standalone reference of "Lafayette."

The rest of the story ...

[NewsCopy]

In the past few days, the furor over whether the University of Louisiana's athletic teams be known simply as "Louisiana" has reached a fever pitch. Opinions on both sides have been expressed, sometimes heatedly,..

[CajunJack55]

Everybody
If were to be known as simply Louisiana, we would not perceived as a small tiny directional school.
Guarantee alot of people get us confused with ULM all the time. Hell ESPN confuses us fpr Lafayette Leopards

Don't even answer the dude..he trolls

[HoustonCajun]

It was an Academic decision. From an academic standpoint it was easier to attract better teachers and students being called the University of Louisiana at Lafayatte then University of Soutwest Louisiana.

The University of South Louisiana and we go back to USL. USF and UCF are Tier 1 schools, so that holds no argument. Or, we go to Acadiana University. We need an IDENTITY and not UL-L.

ESPN already picked up on this and is showing UL-L on the screen and calling us ULL. This SUCKS.

We are done. Louisiana will never again be used by anyone other than us alums. I am so ____ed. Do we change every uniform, field, court? We need an explanation NOW. The ULM game was a precursor to this and we were being set up just didn't realize it.

Funny they could print ____ about our bowl game much less the win but they can cover this ____. And don't give me any crap about it concerning Moanroe. They used a picture of our player to accompany the story. Anyone want to defend that cancerous skank _____ now? Anyone?
