For example, when I was at USL in the late 80's - early 90's the basket ball team playing in the American South conference would of beat the crap out the teams we have had the past years per playing in the Sun Belt.

And the use of the a regional moniker changes all that back to the way it use to be? Changing your imagine from a Southland program was part of moving on to a new branding like UL or Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns. Winning is the second part of that equation. Going back to USL don't make us winners as we were in the past when Bo Lamar played.
So you think the name University of Louisiana helps us get better players and coaches vs USL or University of Louisiana - Lafayette?
Well I do not.
To me, the bigger thing is getting out of the Sun Belt which benefit the program a lot more than some name branding. Oh and the most important thing that helps with name branding is WINNING!
For example, lets look at UCF (University of central Florida) it sure has not hurt them. Keep thinking that the name has something do with wins and losses if you want to.
What about Coastal Carolina, Western Ky, Middle Tenn St as a few other examples. Believe what you want.
And guess what. The only time the baseball team made the CWS and basketball team won a game in the NCAA tourney - guess what our name was????
University of Southwestern Louisiana aka USL
Stool dog....dat you?
