Sun Belt Gets Behind Cajuns' Branding – From the Bird's Nest

[Big Buds]

What I wonder is if the call from many fans to leave the league had anything to do with this? Others may have been afraid that the league would be weakened with out departure. Probably wishful thinking.

I agree that it played a very big role in their decision. I am already a bigger fan and supporter of the Sun Belt right now.

Not a fan.

Dominoes are falling. National media next. Thank you to Dr. Savoie, even if you are slow and methodical. Now we know for sure, with this action that you are still behind the movement and this means a lot to many of us.

Must have a photo of Bruno in bed with a young boy. Find it hard to believe they wanted ULM that bad.

Now this is your funniest post ever....so what really brought the change??? 180 for sure from the North!!!

I'm not sure they exactly "endorsed" our using "Louisiana." They just stopped pretending THEY wanted to be called UL to block us.

Or, rather, they couldn't do anything about LA.

Really wish i knew what happened behind the scenes, though.

If you guys are looking for reasons why ULM all of a sudden agreed, I think it may have something to do with the financial situations at both schools and any help Doc can give them politically.

ULM just maxed out their allotment for athletics from state funding. Perhaps Doc provided cover for them? Just spitballing here....

[CajunEXPRESS]

We can't cover their financial problems, nor influence the state.

[Turbine]

ULM has long stated who they are.

I don't think they are involved in this.

Well. The SBC may have gotten behind calling us by our right name, but too bad the SBC board moderators, like our 'friend' chiefsfan, won't do the same thing. Case in point:

There is a thread there started today by a ltu/cuss troll titled "Ark St vs ULL" which manages to insult both teams by purposely calling us by names he shouldn't. And in a later post he repeatedly calls us 'ull'....effectively sticking us the bird and kicking us in the balls at the same time.

No wonder no one here bothers to post there much. They treat us like shi!!t. And leading the pack is chiefsfan.

Maybe he should spend less time reading and posting here and do his job there.

You can't let those types get under your skin; that is their objective.
