You are to be commended for your brilliant post!! You obviously grasp what others here are not in that LA Tech is seperating themselves from us. The ones that are laghing and saying "karma is a _____" are the ones that are jealous and envious that a big time program offered their coach a job! And, if they say otherwise, they are lying to themselves!! One can only fantasize about that ever happening here with this program. As of now, this program is viewed as a coaching graveyard!! What a joke!!

I like what Tech's President is doing and I wish ours was more demonstrative about where UL athletics is heading and what it can do for our university. Give Tech credit, they do things to maintain separation from us and to prepare themselves for inclusion when the next conference realignment comes about, which could be sooner than we all think. Who knows? I just wish UL had the b*lls to do some of the things Tech has done. People can belittle Tech all they want and say their facilities suck and their town sucks, etc., but at the end of the day, they are much better branded as LA Tech than we are as Louisiana Lafayette, they are in a better conference, they market themselves better, have been to bowl games, have beaten numerous BCS schools, and are generally perceived better athletically and academically than UL. Rightly or wrongly. Tech will come out of this OK.
