2016: LA the new "official" abbreviation for stats, crawls, etc

[Hark Mudspeth]

LA stands for Los Angeles to 99.9% of the people in this country. How in the world anyone thinks this will help our branding is beyond me. It'll make things even more confusing than they are today.

Whuh? The Los Angeles Ragin Cajuns? What does UL-LAF,UL-L,UofL@L,Lou-laf mean to everyone? What does UT mean to most? Does that hurt Tennessee? USC?doesnt hurt South Carolina. If people can't correlate LA with Louisiana Ragin Cajuns then we can't help those idiots...LA, you know the actual abreviation of the state of Louisiana

I can see the headline now, noone in an entire state receives mail, causes massive backlog at hollywood postal branch office,excess mail tossed into ocean, peta not happy

[Tell The Truth]

Why not just call yourself L-for losers. Rebrand all you want but until you put a respectable non cheating product on the field no one outside of lafayette will really care. You cheated your way into bowl games and still refuse to accept the fact that you didn't win them. Why can't usl fans be proud of what you are and stop trying to be something you are not nor will ever be. You are as of right now the worst football program in the state excluding southern and grambling. Please don't embarrass the state anymore by putting LOUISIANA on you uniforms-You will never get my respect until you respect yourself and stop this nonsense.

Cajuns released new branding for athletics today: First reference: Louisiana. Abbreviation for stats, crawls, etc. LA. ULL or UL-L: No

"LA" on every State road sign, and every letter and package coming or going in and out of Louisiana.

LA is not confused with L.A.

You overlooked UL or UofL which 99.99% would identify with Louisville. LA won't be nearly as confusing. If they added this LA. It would be clear LA. we already use a - in the last La would of course be best of all.

Dear UL administration,

I went to the DMV yesterday to obtain a plate for our project car. My last purchase, I gladly paid the $100 fee to obtain a plate with "UL Ragin' Cajuns" and the fleur de lies on it, and supported our university.

Today's version had the generic "Louisiana" at the top with Ragin' Cajuns at the bottom, and the ever popular hot wheels logo on it. I understand the inmates no longer make embossed plates and all are now generically flat. WHY CHANGE THE DESIGN???

With the generic "Louisiana" on all state plates, the message WE as supporters want to see is NOT there. Sorry, you guys missed another "minor" $150.00 (yes, it went up). It honestly saddened me not to buy it, but message is watered down or actually not there, much like your crawfish job vs ULM a few years back.

Besides doing a press release, please grow a set and stand firm.
