    I was told the players want the Hip Hop/ Rap during warm ups. I have no problem with that, it gets them excited. During the tailgating, people close to the North Endzone can't carry a conversation with the crap so loud.

    All I know is, when we we got the fourth down stop at the end, they played "Jump Around" on the PA.

    And, watching the team jump around was a beautiful sight.

And when they do attend, make sure they are engaged in the atmosphere and play on the field. And lastly, we must do something with our students. Student attendance is pathetic. There is absolutely no reason that UL athletics is not a prioriy for all students. Our athletic department needs to quickly figure out how to make that connection and instill in the students the pride in their university and when they do show up, again, get them engaged and involved thru cheers and music played by our college band, not rap music piped in at the most inopportune times. Is Lafayette a real college town or just a pretender? Time to find out.
    Please send this directly to the administration

    I imagine the majority of our players and visiting recruits prefer the rap as well. I’d also bet the University plays that to get more students in the stands. Not that it has worked...
    Players on the sideline were moving to the Zydeco beat.....they go to clubs in the area too.....

    Most programs have enough crowd noise to create a disadvantage for the visiting team when they have the ball. We have to pipe in music. And it’s terrible

    You could hear the music over the 1420 feed

    Any ideas on how to improve student turnout?

    If you watch the cheerleaders, UL does have chants played by the Pride of Louisiana between offensive series. Cheerleaders can be louder and the fans just need to read the signs out loud. The band could do a better job by adding them to the website, social media, game day programs, video board, and practicing them with the students during pep rallies and the fans during pregame festivities outside of the stadium near Russo Park. Fans just need to practice them! We should also all know the words to the fight song and sing it proudly. The male and female cheerleaders are our yell leaders, but I could barely hear them singing it during the pregame march outside the stadium. We can all do a better job in changing our cULture! It starts with U!

    I noticed improvements in the sound last night. Better mix of tunes. Could hear play by play with name of playmaker, even though they called the wrong names a couple of times. And there were several blocks of minutes with no artificial noise and you could hear only the pulse of the crowd and it was beautiful. You could hear the person sitting next to you. I like the fact that the admin has heard Ragin Pagin and is tweaking the game atmoshere.
