Not diggin the "pepper" mascot

_ I like that but I still think ULtimate's helmet and uni design is the best..... _

If you haven't done so already, send those pictures to Coach Bustle. Maybe we can get these uniform changes in with Russell before the start of the season. This is where we need to go for better name recognition and the Fleur de Lis logo. It looks great!

I'm pretty sure that both me and ULtimate have sent the picture to Bustle, Lynn Williams, and Scott Farmer. I received an email back from Farmer but it didn't address the pictures. I know that when Bustle arrived at UL he attempted to get the helmet changed but it was not allowed by Schexnayder. Not sure if he attempted to try again.

Do we know what he wanted the helmets changed to?

Apparently i've been black listed by anyone in the athletic dept. because i've sent many emails and have never gotten anything back from anyone. And I wasn't even being a dick or anything. Just stating points and showing them some artwork for logo's and such. But yes i've sent all of those pictures and drawings to multiple athletic dept. people with no word back.

I have no clue what he wanted to change it to. I doubt any of this flies. We will be stuck with the same uniforms, mascot, name abbreviations, etc. for years to come.

Don't lament inaction too much.

This is afer all the athletic department that couldn't be troubled into acknowleging a 2nd best in the country (B5) program winning percentage of 73% back in 2005

I talked to Bustle today and asked if he had received the helmet / logo designs. He said he did and said he also received another helmet design that was fairly similar from someone in Houston. He said he liked both of them and forwarded them to Julie Dronet. So I'm sure we will never see anything come of them.

I did ask him if he did in fact not like the current helmets. He said that when he first came to UL he didn't like the helmets that had "Ragin Cajuns" straight accross the helmet. He said once it was changed to a curved style he didn't think the helmets were too bad.

Like I said before. I think we should just learn to like what we have. Try to like the pepper and all 20 of our logos and names. With Julie Dronet head of the logo police we will see no changes anytime soon.

You never know Julie Dronet might find a way to slap an "at Lafayette" on the helmets even though all they say is "Ragin' Cajuns"

I thought it was Julie Simon-Dronet. You know, with the female-empowered hyphenated last name.

[BabbForHeisman]

You're right, I did not include the full name. It's Julie Simon-Dronet-Lafayette.

Man you must be nuts. A fan coming up with incredible ideas and helmet designs. Martin Hall doesn't do things that way. They would rather pay a million to some out of state company to come up with something scary or childish.
