Poll for work

Looks like LSU is tapped out and Louisiana has emense potential for growth.

Maybe 1/10 are college grads. Most are from Lafayette, New Iberia, Crowley areas.

I would expect any group surveyed to favor LSU, but I would mainly expect numbers that badly skewed in a group with less college education than more. That’s not a comment on intelligence. There’s just no tie to the schools themselves, so it would make sense that the vast majority would choose the program with several national titles over the program that just mustered up its first conference title.

its part of it but its not the whole picture. but these are the kind of people you can appeal to their pocket books and entertainment value

You will need way more than good luck there . . .

selling the product the way its currently constructed is impossible. retention rate is very poor.

[ZoomZoom]

Ding Ding Ding! THIS IS WHY.

And I’m will to bet the owners give LSU tickets to employees, perpetuating the cycle. And Walmart sales.

The epitome of typical Wal Mart Refineryville people who never sniffed the school, seems like pretty much hopeless.

So I have 216 employees where I work. Of these 216 employees 147 of them are 28 or younger. Of those 147, 113 watch college football whether on tv or in a stadium. All of these guys are from the Lafayette Metro area. When asked what college football team they watch and pull for 108 said LSU while only 5 said the Cajuns. When asked why they watch the team they do 86% answered its what their parents watched so that's how they grew up.

A separate section I had made was for the Cajuns. I asked do you watch Cajun football and only 5 replied yes. I asked if they knew the Cajuns were ranked in the TOP 25 the last 2 years and they replied with yeah but who did they play and no chance of making the National Championship.

100% of the answers said that we play no one at home so why would they want to watch us play teams like ULM, Georgia State, etc. when they can watch LSU play teams like Alabama, Florida, Georgia, etc.

My company which is in Lafayette gives LSU tickets away and not UL. The owners never attended LSU nor did their kids, more bandwagon riders. I did convince them to give UL tickets away hoping the employees will go to the games at UL and maybe start changing their minds.

I dont know what else to do to get people to the d..n games.

First of all, thank you for the effort and the result awareness you had. That is mighty impressive and could give a lot of insight into WHAT is happening amongst our young people. Also, thank you for trying and getting the company to give away UL game tickets. More luck getting them into the stands when LSU is playing away, I guess. Geaux Cajuns!

Those are facts. That’s why it’s hard for our university to connect with the casual non college student fan. Also why it’s super important to make connections with students very early in order to make good and loyal alumni. Our fan bases roots will come from Alum.

Slow hand clap…this is what needs to happen. Guys, we’re not and never will be one of those teams that will draw the Walmart fans. Ask UCF how those years of success and a nattie (I love they claim it!) how their non-alum fan base is right now.

Have a pretty good team, get the students into the stadium, downsize our stadium.
