The next UCF or Cincinnati? How about Billy Napier's Louisiana

[Cajun Soldier]

This....are you listening "casual UL fan"?

I'm not a casual fan and we have a good product but bring in quality opponents someone worth spending money on or giving up a week night to see and they will come. Heck I don't want to see half the crappy teams outside of conference games that we bring to Cajun Field. JMO

Our Cajuns football program is "worth spending money on". Duh!

[moorecajun]

I will go to the games to see the CAJUNS play, whomever they are playing.

Never let casUaL fan know they are casUaL or you will have a harder time getting them to make UL their casa.

….T-Bine sometimes our minds are on the same page---just think if you make these thoughts rhyme....mi casa es su casa!!!!

What great draw opponents did we bring to Cajun Field during HUD’s first 3-4 years when we averaged much better attendance?

All I’m asking is the Acadiana community at least support Napier to the extent they supported Hud.

Coach Napier AT LEAST deserves that. IMO, he deserves much more support.

That's a great point.

So, its not necessarily the money that will make Napier move on, which is good to hear. However, as I see it, the one thing that may get him to sour on Lafayette and WANT to move on will be the apathy in the community about UL Football. He's building it, but will anybody come? There has to be more fan engagement this year and after the stadium is renovated or he's gone.

To be honest I think there really are only 4 jobs left Napier would leave for....Georgia, Alabama, Clemson, and LSU.....2 of which might be looking for a coach after this year.

[Turbine]

PS, why put an opening picture of coach with a damn COVID mask on?

I would under that if the article was about Covid Carolina, but not the Cajuns.

Perhaps because, the Dude is the epitome of exuding responsibility.

Not LSU, Napier isn't clownish enough...maybe Georgia...but Clemson and Bama for sure.

Okay, let me say this.

I'm tired of hearing I won't go because of the weeknight games. I'm tired of hearing I won't go because the quality of opponent. I'm tired of hearing I won't go because my tailgating is being interfered with.

I'm tired of it all.

I remember several years ago when someone said we have to get our program good enough to where what happens inside Cajun Field is more important than what happens outside it.

That includes not only tailgating, but also sitting at home in your easy chair.

Billy Napier has accomplished that goal.

No more freaking excuses.
No more sense of entitlement.
No more "it's all about" something else besides the program

No. More.
