Historic Day

[cajun55]

Well said everyone! We deserve this! Everyone that attends UL athletic events and supports the Cajuns through thick and thin deserves this! Anyone can jump on a bandwagon but not everyone can handle the grind, the adversity’s, the frustrations and perseverance that it takes to really build something real.

We have a great university in our backyard and this football program symbolizes that.

Congrats Cajun Nation!

I welcome all the band wagon fans we can get, as long as they are spending $$$.

I dunno.

I've been to schools with a lot of money.

And a lot of jerks to go with it. I don't want their fans showing up here.

UL means a lot more to me than braggin' rights.

Exactly
I too saw and heard a few.
I spoke to one young couple with two kids who
Said this was their FIRST UL game. : keep coming as much as you can
I appreciate casual fans- not to provide expert advice or comment /criticize the team but to SHOW UP ON GAME DAY -and to WEAR UL colors everywhere, as MUCH AS POSSIBLE!!!

I never really bought into that "sleeping giant" stuff, but here we are.

Well, we've always been a step ahead of the other Louisiana schools: more vision, all across campus. What has held us back was working in a state which doesn't value education; and several administrations which came out of the tradition that "good athletics means bad academics" (which is true at least some places).

And I have always believed that our biggest asset was our people & culture: the friendliness, the focus on family & kids. That's certainly what Billy talked about.

Add to that, add the football talent Louisiana produces; a really good coach; an admin willing to commit the bucks; and State & LTU in disarray, increasing our recruiting options... it all worked out.

HISTORIC PERIOD
In no
Particular order:
- we win SBC
-we lose our coach to a PREMIER P5 job (that is a good thing in the long run)
-we currently have 2d longest win streak in nation and our PR best ever regular season record
-being called “Louisiana” by 90% of country and sports outlets
-#16/17 in AP/Coaches
-we are at least being considered as a HC destination by ALA DC, MSU OC, and several otherS
-new stadium FINALLY!
And one last thought:
Wouldn’t it be GRAND to get face BYU in our bowl game?
BATTLE OF THE #2 &3 non P5s!

We've been season ticket holders over 20 years and last night seems like the loudest, noisiest crowd. It was a blast and agree a historic night for the program and Cajuns fans. We joke on here about casual fans and its true for most fanbases there are alot of fair weather fans. But fact is we need a few thousand more casual UL fans to sign up to RCAF. Strike while the iron is hot between now and bowl game to recruit more fans into RCAF, even casual fans.

We had a bandwagon fan (nameless) awhile back that supported Refineryville. He was banished for a period of time for running afoul with the NCAA and federal law enforcement. So I was shocked the administration let this guy near our program. Nothing ever happened here. Once his statue of limitations expired back to Refineryville. Guess it was a write off thing.

Not too sure who you were attempting to inform of what but the attempt failed miserably . . .
