Louisiana Logos

Huh? How would same sex marriage effect locker rooms or Title IV? I think transgender people go to the locker room/restroom that they identify with. Are you planning a switch, Boomer... or are you just curious?

---Same sex marriage in the locker room--don't think that a husband and wife have been on the same team before---What if we would have an entire woman's team of men to women athletes??? Not familiar with title IV (guess you meant IX)----BTW, has a transgender ever competed in any NCAA event???

[FeelDaRage]

L - Disagree. We have a hard enough time being confused with Lafayette College as it is I think this would just compound the problem.
Mascot n - I say bring back Cayenne. He represents the culture in Louisiana well in that he's a unique concept. Making our mascot an alligator would look like we're followers of everybody else that already have an alligator mascot instead of pioneers. Although I do think that we need to take the pepper off the school logo.

Title IV is when a guy has a I and has it surgically altered to a V. Why are you transboomering from logos to sex change operations?

---OK I think I tracked my thoughts down--Saw that somebody had done a Louis--Anna post and it din't have a middle connecting sound so I go for the Spanish Y which sounds like the connector sound of our state---then I start thinking about the 2 girls and if one was a guy and how that would work---well you get the idea---So many of my songs started just like this but on different subjects---maybe I can get you my CD!!!

It has bee 15 years since our name change and a marketing nightmare.??Time for some needed changes. The dialogue on this board is good.

Im good with the discussion, and I'm ready for some of the improvements mentioned. I don't think the "L" is a good idea. Bigger programs that are already established nationally can tinker with all kinds of things. The tinkering isn't what got them big. When we tinker too much, it makes us look desperate and silly. I've read all of your arguments for the "L" and I just don't want to go that direction. To me, we'll get laughed at. People will put the hand symbol for "L" on their forehead and mock us as "Losers". I just don't like it. the ways we display "UL" and "Louisiana" work fine. Our problem is in getting outsiders to use it on scoreboards and journalistic work. Do you think they'll put an "L" for us? I sure hope not. The "L" doesn't help identify us. I don't even like what Louisville is doing with it. It looks like crap. It's their ego trying to be like the "O" of Oregon. It looks like pure crap if you ask me, and it doesn't help them one bit. To me, I think we just need to delete some dumb things, including the yellow flames. Most of our other stuff needs to stay in place while we're in this current athletic up time. We've got some identity going that needs to stay in place. Getting rid of Cayenne and yellow flames (and yellow anywhere else) are enough for me right now.

Marketing Light...

LA is for ticker tape score scrolling as there simply is no other option.

L for the Letterman's club and exclusively for lettermen.

UL ever day use and the "I love UL" hand sign are very unique.

Louisiana for everything print and legal.

Ragin' Cajuns for everything.

Bullgator: Right where it has been for most of UL history, representing on campus.

I see more Ragin' Cajuns out of the athletic dept and less Louisiana lately.

I'm fine with that. Yeah, I'd love to see more Louisiana, but our moniker is unique to us. Let's use it.

I want mixes of both. I don't really care how they're mixed up on a variety of uniforms. The only thing I've been watchful of is that our admin tries to go "Ragin Cajuns" on everything in order to eventually eliminate the "Louisiana" on everything. That is unacceptable to me.

[CajunGator]

I can get behind nearly everything you wrote. We need a comprehensive, campus-wide, unwavering approach to this like yesterday. However, can we PUHLEEZE stop this bull gator crap. It is a tired, suck-_____ idea that has already been done. For crying out loud, we benefit from having one of the most unique footprints on the planet. I cannot see why we want to give that up. Florida beat us to the gator. Let's move on.

Surely you jest, you don't move on from unique footprints.

I think logos look "big time" when they are simple and not complicated. The more detailed, the more small time they look.
