Should the Cajuns Script be Permanent?

[Turbine]

Cajuns is race agnostic.

The name Cajuns wasn't used till 100 years after the area was settled.

And that’s why we don’t have a mascot. One side, it isn’t inclusive. Another side, we don’t want a cartoonish character representing Cajuns. Been like that for years. So USL rolls out a hot wheels logo, a pepper then nothing. Another side, lost opportunities to connect with young fans and make future donors.

If we stay with just Cajuns, then there could be some drama from the left. In fact, there was some belly aching about Ragin Cajuns back in the mid 70's as being a reference to only 1 race. True fact.

There was some belly aching in the early 90s from a student who claimed Ragin Cajuns was racist because Ragin spelled backwards is close to a well known racial slur. I ____ you not.

Which is why "mascot" is the wrong angle and "spirit leader" is a good fit.

This university is always hell bent on avoiding anything controversial.

Good ole advertiser... a. Surprised article wasnt blocked behind fire wall, but why is picture gallery a game from napier era?
Meanwhile back to helmets, the helmer in the poll doesmt have the outline of ragin cajuns, there are a few pictures vs kstate and the words are not all white

[R1Letterman]

Absolutely not., it's a schizophrenic logo.

Ragin shows movement to the right
Cajuns shows movement to the left.

So the entire logo has to be scrapped, rather than just move the point on thr bottom letters?

[R1Letterman]

Stick with the stacked Ragin’ Cajuns because that’s the brand we’ve been building, especially during our winning.

Script Cajuns for every homecoming game as a new tradition. Hopefully with throwback merchandise available.

Good idea

[R1Letterman]

There should be a constitutional amendment mandating the script Cajuns helmet with white face mask as our standard helmet until the end of time.

Yeah thats what we need.... lswho cronies in baton rouge deciding our logo

[R1Letterman]

Louisiana needs something besides a stack that points in opposite directions.

A schizophrenic logo might explain everything though.

Has anyone ever mentioned this besides you. And would anyone have ever thought that had you not pointed it out

Cajuns itself was a slur as it was a mispronunciation of Acadian meanwhile the one who said cajun wasnt used early is wrong because Acadian was, and it originated as the same word

How many people resemble or have same ethnicity as a green wave or an owl

Think of it like Notre Dame who use Irish instead of Fighting Irish. So, we use Cajuns.

Also, we need the Gator as our mascot and Cajuns as our moniker.

Stack Ragin Cajuns is not bad, and as a helmet logo it does look good. We just need to not use Ragin Cajuns on everything.

We are the University of Louisiana, and since we can not use UL we need to move to the alternative.

Personally yall know what symbol i think we should use to represent that.

The irish man in the logo is literally holding up his fists ready to fight. Dont think they dropped fighting from irish.
