Moving forward, who are we?

A little off topic but I’ll say this, between the top 25 rankings, back to back 11 win seasons and now Billy leaving..we won the name battle just in time (thanks mostly to ESPN). We’ve had more recognition the past 2 seasons than probably 100 years combined and everyone called us Louisiana. It’s now at a point where it looks odd when anyone on a National level uses anything other than LOUISIANA.

Great post. We have come a long way baby. Now we continue. Hire another up and comer. Build a beautiful stadium. BUILD off what coach Napier started

Few locals, mostly newbies from around the State.

Unless you're talking about Dan McDonald.

Mostly those lsuam @br who are secretly getting worried about what is happening here.

It is much wider than that. Those do it out of spite and insecurity, however the lions share of that is from those that say it out of naivety.

Way too many locals ULL it...the postings on FB concerning Billy leaving were full of it...

It will change when the old folks die off, young people are calling us what we want to be called. That’s in lake Charles area all the way to Houston. It’s happening.

It will be a long time before all the casual 40 and 50 year olds die off. They are the ones that grew up with the ULL . . . Louisiana-Lafayette references . . .

Imports and newbies.

Change your conversation to an informative one when you encounter them because they know nothing.

Yeah I’m sure it’s better to acknowledge and say thanks, but we go by Louisiana and UL for short.

Didn’t necessarily mean it literally

Everyone that is politely corrected and informed and has done this out of naivety will never do it again once it is pointed out. Take every chance to assist in that way.

I think you are correct.

Well, facts are facts, we all get to do it. Just don’t rush it, HE has a plan for us all.

Was at a MBB game the other day. Was looking around and the median age had to be 45-50.

Thus the smallest crowds ever for UL mens basketball.
