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

[CajunDreDog]

UL-L AD Scott Farmer is a halftime guest!!!!!

[Hammer58]

Watching basketball on TV on CST. Graphics using ULL no hyphen. Farmer getting ready to be interviewed. Bet he doesn't say ____ about this or anything significant about Hud's contract.

[Just1More]

I feel like I just got kicked in the balls! Thanks T--------Joe!

And if you think T-Joe gives a ____ about whether your balls fall off... you've misread what he thinks of the loyal fan of this school.

T-Joe would rather eat a turd sandwich, hand the other half to you, than put up a fight. He's also apparently too big of a coward to warn you that you're about to ingest the sewer of this state and every sockcucker that despises our school. What a great guy.

It cannot be "UL" guys...that IS Louisville...been that way for a jillion years...so if it cannot be "Louisiana" then what else can it be?

[RCAJUN90]

Again they can't control what we call ourselves. We need to get out of this hellish conference ASAP! The University of Acadia is already taken up in Canada. I'm in the minority but I would be happy with the University of South Louisiana. Why can't we hammer that home?

[ZoomZoom]

He might not be amused this September, either.

Watching KATC, already drinking the koolaid. They might not be amused come RCAF time. I go back a long way, had motor home when ther were 5 at the game. Was like a novelity to the admin. Then a few more came, and they wanted start charging people who set the pace. Then the first time they wanted premiums for seating after a 2-9 season, typical horrific timing. Had a real AD with Phillips, but that went to bubbaville when he left.

Then a parade of clowns, from Marty to Coach Toothpick. Health knocked me away for several years, and I rolled the dice against medical advice and started going to games again. It was like we turned the corner in several fronts. Was feeling like the program we supported for decades was headed in the right direction.

But today, feels like the same old mess. Other than Hud, things have not changed.

[CajunDreDog]

Great idea! UCF game and Disney World trip together. I like it.

Any other ideas?

If Hud leaves for Vandy (and who wouldn't blame him now), I can be a Vandy fan.

Any other suggestions?

They are "U of L" anything else has been a mistake much like ULL.

I don't think, Savoie and Farmer understand how much damage they and the SUN BELT Conference just did to our brand and loyal fans. This is bad yall. Very Bad. All these years of fighting this battle.

I refuse to give up, but we just look stupid now, unless we can get into another conference, to settle this once and for all.

Shows a serious disconnect from their constituency.

[California Cajun]

Does anyone realize how utterly horrible this is?

For t-joe to not only cave on this issue, but to choose THIS as the abbreviation is absolutely the worst decision he could have made.

I usually don't care much either way with all this stuff, I just say UL cause that's what we are and figure everything else will fall into place over time. But t-joe has literally fukced us bad.

Yes, because the -L appendage is isolated and I think more easily dropped.
