    There will be just as much name interference from those two as from ULM, probably more because they each have much more political pull than ULM.


    Only way we get full conference support on the name issue is to join the MWC, MAC, or a completely new conference that does not contain Tech, Tulane or ULM.
    I don't think so. Teck & TU don't have the same argument, they don't have the same name. And the other conference members should (should) want the best-sounding opponents they can schedule.

    It's true, but I never understood that.

    It does nothing for you and only cements "Lafayette"

    Coach Robicheaux used "Western" to refer to wku in an interview. I doubt they like to be called that.

    I think it's fairly common for coaches to shorten the names. And not necessarily in a way that raises your opponents perceived stature. Subconscious or not, who knows.

    "W" Club is their prefered reference for the Hall of Fame. Not sure how they feel about stand alone "Western"

    I believe they like "Western".
