You mean other than the one U-S-L engages in where it imagines that the legislature has less power than the Board of Trustees?

[ZoomZoom]

Here's your separation you brokeback...and you too mutt. Throw in Carnegie, the gap just keeps widening.

Please the Constitution was very simple and straight forward.

Powers of management over public institutions of postsecondary education not specifically vested by this Section in the Board of Regents are reserved to the Board of Trustees.

Naming rights were not Legislatively assigned to the Board of Regents UNTIL the case was on appeal in an effort to belatedly comply with the Constitution.

I can't wait until this game is over.

[ZoomZoom]

Never play them again, preferably in all sports. Quit giving a pay day to a POS glorified JC that has attempted and has blocked multiple things off the field we have tried to do.

Oh please....the average crowd at The NO Bowl is around 30K, it spiked when you all finally made it to a Bowl game....and then peaked when Tulane appeared at 54K....It went back to a little over 30K the following year when you went back.

12-20-14 UL Ragin' Cajuns Nevada Wolf Pack 16-3 View 34,014
12-21-13 UL Ragin' Cajuns Tulane 24-21 View 54,723

Stop embarrassing yourself, Jay. You watched it on TV. Hell the whole, "hole" watched it. Want to know what the Sugar Bowl attdce was in 2013? 54,178... read em and weep. Oh, but we know that atmosphere in "the hole" in front of 8K for a playoff game, certainly rivals the 50K we put in the Dome...or the 48K...or the 42 K or.... well, you get the picture.

Again...the average NO Bowl attendance is somewhere around 30,000. It spiked when you finally made it to a bowl game...then spiked at 54K when Tulane made it. It went back down to a little over 30K the last time you were there, when Tulane wasn't in it.

Thank you for posting the provenance for what I said...

LOL...from the artcile:

'The Princeton Review does not use mathematical calculations or formulas to determine which schools make the book as the "best."'

Holy Admitted Subjectivity, Batman!

Also, "The Princeton Review" is a privately owned company, not affiliated with Princeton University.

Accordingly, it comes as no surprise that this thing appeals to you, trading as it does on the good name of Princeton University. The Princeton Review isn't an objective academic study.

It's been widely criticized as being subjective.

From Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Pr...anking_schools

Ranking schools[edit]
College rankings, including those published by the Princeton Review, have been criticized for failing to be accurate or comprehensive by assigning objective rankings formed from subjective opinions.[8] Princeton Review officials counter that their rankings are unique in that they rely on student opinion and not just on statistical data.[9][10]

In 2002 an American Medical Association affiliated program, A Matter of Degree,[11] funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, criticized the Princeton Review list of Best Party Schools.[12] USA TODAY published an editorial titled "Sobering Statistics" [13] in August 2002 and stated, "the doctor's group goes too far in suggesting that the rankings contribute to the problem (of campus drinking)." The editorial noted the fact that among the schools the AMA program was then funding as part of its campaign against campus drinking, six of 10 of those schools calling for The Princeton Review to "drop the annual ranking...had made (Princeton Review's) past top-party-school lists: many times for some. That's no coincidence." The editorial commended The Princeton Review for reporting the list, calling it "a public service" for "student applicants and their parents."

Rankings for LGBT-related lists have also been criticized as inaccurate due to outdated methodologies.[14] The Princeton Review bases its LGBT-Friendly and LGBT-Unfriendly [15] top twenty ranking lists, which asks undergraduates: "Do students, faculty, and administrators at your college treat all persons equally regardless of their sexual orientations and gender identify/expression?" The Princeton Review also publishes The Gay & Lesbian Guide to College Life.[16][17]

I wish I could say I was shocked that you're using a "study" that's not a study, by an organization that admits that it uses subjective methodology and which tries to engender respect by using a name that it's not affiliated with.

Somehow, that's entirely fitting for you guys....

Who holds the naming rights now?

You better look at those numbers again, Junior. 42K, 48K, and 54K. Those are strong numbers. The dif between Tulane and E Carolina is negligible. N.O. burn out on #4, plus our admin sold us out. We had a shot at the The Indy, but Farmer and TJoe covered it up and we were stuck once again. Anyway, it will still take you bet. 5-7 home playoff games to equal what we bring to a bowl game. Im out big Jay! Have a safe trip into town.

you should be more worried about being THE University of Lake Charles....99.9% of your students root for another school in the state over the one they go to.

That was probably the flagships master plan, they shouldnt be called cowboys, they should be the Moles!

[31Ragin97]

Why didnt you guys pursue the forfeit last year against your flagship? Would you say you were treated well by them?
