McNeese Week 2016

Well, clearly, the legislature's intent has always been for U-S-L to serve a specific region of Louisiana.

The only people who don't get that are U-S-L fans. Perhaps you're too close to the issue to have an unbiased view?

Tried to get on Ryan street High's website keeps saying I need Netscape 2.3 browser to view it ....is that a proprietary browser?

Listen, I think we got off on the wrong foot here about the whole name thing....and, perhaps, the conversation has drifted away from where it should be rightfully heading.

I think what we should be discussing instead is how U-S-L should actually be a branch of Louisiana Tech.

Tech was founded as the Louisiana Industrial Institute in 1894.

UL-L was founded as the Southwestern Louisiana Industrial Institute in 1901.

I think The Louisiana Tech University of South Central Louisiana @ Lafayette has a nice ring to it.

Hell, for a long time, you even had the same mascot as Louisiana Tech...

Even if McNeese wins, they have to go back to Lake Charles.

BOOM!!

That is not nice, I have been nothing but respectful towards you.

Uh.....FIFY means "Fixed It For You"....or is there an alternate universe definition for that here too, like there is for everything else??

[FormerPokeCenter]

I see what you did there, switching it from academic influence and growth to football prowess.

If, as you say, there are "groth" schools all over SW Louisiana put there by another institution, how influential can you really be?

and what region is it that RSH serves? clearly you aren't providing a service to anyone on this board

1898

For the first 21 years UL had no mascot.

They just represented the State of Louisiana.

[FormerPokeCenter]

You might want to rethink your premise. The Muddogs represented the South Central part of the state...

As you astutely point out...LSU represented the State of Louisiana.
