Where’s Waldo? I’m in that picture! Was not a student, but was only a couple years removed from being a student. Someone talked me into joining the student section, front row, one more time.

Note for BWK: Jerry Babb is not shown in this picture hahahahahaha

I think the biggest problem is that admin thought that the Lafayette area would react to Des’s hire just like the football team did. Lots of cheering, gathering around him, etc.

Guess what…they didn’t. In fact, the Des hire by itself, regardless of any wins and losses, had a negative impact on attendance because it wasn’t paired with a good (or maybe any) marketing strategy.

One thing to note, during this time frame a student could buy up to six escort tickets.

That’s me in the front row on the rail behind #13 for FIU wearing the #16 Cajuns jersey.

That was when we had to get there 45 minutes before kickoff in order to reserve our spots.

There has been way to many people that I have talked to in the last couple of days that had no idea we had a home game this past weekend.

With that said, no one that I talked to would have attended the game anyway but it just speaks to the topic at hand.

I text a buddy the week of the Southern Miss game to ask if he wanted to hit up Pete’s or Mid City to watch the game. His response, “oh I’ve got plans that night. I thought the game was next Thursday.” This was an RCAF member and season ticket holder up until this year. The fanbase is completely checked out, and this administration does not care to know why.

They read this board. They know why. They just don't care.

I don’t disagree with you, but there are also people like my friend who are not board members. I’ve mentioned this in other threads, but a significant portion of the folks who have walked away aren’t write an email/complain on a board/post on social media type folks. They let their money talk for them. With any of the people I know who have slashed RCAF or dropped it completely, I don’t know any who have been contacted by UL other than the regular ticket renewal check ups to see why they have stopped giving. I know the reasons are mainly those posted here, but we have less than 2,000 RCAF members. Any drop in a donation or loss of member should prompt a call to that person to check in and make sure their experience wasn’t less than expectations. I agree with you. There’s just so many layers to this admin’s lack of care.

If there ever were a serious change of heart within the admin, a HUGE point of concern should be making sure that ANYONE who is even remotely affiliated with the university does not insult or talk down to the Cajun Nation, i. e. the paying public.

100% know what you mean. One person I talked to this morning used to be a RCAF member and had a tailgate spot in RV area since the formation of the area. Also had a son on the football team at the end of the Hud era.

Totally checked out.

We’ve made our graphic for Thursday’s game. Time for our marketing department to shut it on down for the week!

I don't care if his hand is correct for the fans in the stands, the HAND is way too prominent in the promo for a backwards UL sign to be acceptable
