The Advocate has an on-line article about our R1 status. Still haven't seen anything on The Advertiser. One would think this would be a huge announcement for Lafayette. Hopefully, tomorrow.

The Advertiser will probably post an article about how LSU A&M has been R1 for years, with a cute little graphic on the top right that tells you to turn to page 3 for info on UL’s announcement.

BTW, I think the reason most of us were rooting so hard for this was because we believed that R1 would allow us to move to a better conference. We wanted this so we could get into C-USA, then we wanted it so we could get into the AAC. So I guess what I’m saying is…

*fistpump* just in time!!!!

Ditto that.

I’m so proud today. This is making me more emotional than the CCG.

Thanks for making this a ‘sticky’ Turbine! Seeing that topic every time I check in warms my heart. Hope it stays stuck on the top forever!
