UL taking time to get it right with Cajuns mascot

[BlueDawg]

The only legit answer (and I'm serious) is to bring back a real live "Cajun Man" mascot like Wv does with "mountain man"! It would be very unique and great. Don't understand where the idea of a menacing Pepper came from, first one looked like an evil fruit of the loom character.

I agree...either this or the Fabulous Cajun Chicken. Everything else is for the birds.

its crazy and terrible because it is new.

if standford were to introduce their cardinal mascot today, they would get laughed out of fbs. if western kentucky introduced the blob today it would get voted down with the quickness. those are two of the most recognizable mascots out there in todays world. im okay with cayenne as long as they get it right (stay away from the dildo look)

My point exactly.

Does Pichouette have a Dung Beetle to push her around?

Pichouette, the Ragin Cajun Dancin' Boudin Ball, would have shapely legs shod in white majorette boots. She could wear red, white, or black stockings to complement the game day uniform. She would sport a rustic straw hat and have a tart little fleur de lis singed on her lower right posterior. Should she topple performing her lively antics part of the game day excitement would be watching her roll around as she attempts to get her legs under her to rise. She would be the "little boudin ball who could". No dung beetle required.

If we're determined to go this route I suggest "Vieux Nègre", a wise old créole sage who speaks in riddles and rhymes.

Apparently there's zero consensus about the mascot on this board. Will it be any better in the general public? Whatever is chosen will probably require a very strong marketing push by UL.

Unlike all other mascots, there's no single thing that denotes the Cajun WILL. The will to keep ones religion, language, and choose ones allegiance. Even to the point of being a refugee by choice. No gator, dog, chicken, or buffoonish characters.

I might add they survived with a sense of humor intact and they invented boudin...

IDK, the Gator has been able to maintain all of that since 1898 at The Swamp. LOL.

Well they did fence in the (30 feet away from the field) Gators in 1901 so they could play football.

Do we have anything that rivals that 116 year tradition?
