Louisiana is a "Tier One" School

[CajunRebel]

What other universities in LA have this designation? Also, is there a higher classification?

Only LSU and Tulane.

Only other public one is located in refineryville. Tulane is the 3rd. And no, nothing higher than R1, baby!

The Dawg fans in Ruston must be squirming right now.

They tried to exclude Sun Belt schools in football. Well, now they have because the Sun Belt is becoming the best conference in the G5 while they are stuck in CUSA with Sam Houston and NMSU.

They tried to brag about their popularity contest rank of US News Report as a Tier 1. Well, now we have passed them up in a ranking that is actually used by academia through Carnegie.

They wanted separation. Well now, they got separation!

They'd delete it as soon as it's posted. Those people live in an alternate reality

No joke! Add this to the great FB season we just had, topping it off with a great showing (for now, lol) for the CCG, and all the positive attention we were getting for all of that, this is really is the a case of the 'sleeping giant' waking up and roaring!

Hell yes. And that’s putting it mildly. More to come from both academics and athletics. Just wait until our new stadium is up and the boys of summer return to Omaha…

Great to be a Ragin Cajun
