Bottom line. There is a disconnect between the Cajun people and the university that supposedly represents them.

I do think the locker room issue and the BLM March are very under estimated by the administration on the number of fans that it turned off and that they have lost from it.
Louisiana Saturday Nights
Make it a lifestyle.
It has become quite obvious that the powers that be believe the TV money is way more important than the tradition and attendance that would build . . .
It's just hard for me to believe there is a substantial set of fans that no longer come to football games because of FDT locker room and BLM marches. It's easier for me to believe that those types of fans prefer to stay home and watch on ESPN+ and cite the previously mentioned events as a convenient front.
You remember in the early stages of COVID, if you had a cough it was super easy to get out of going to something you didn't want to go to.
"Man, I got a cough and I don't want to get y'all sick." Then you got to stay home and make a gumbo and drink whiskey because you had an easy out.
Feels like the same situation with "fans" that didn't want to go to games or donate anymore because some football players chanted F Donald Trump. Just an easy out.
And I say all this because I don't doubt some of you have heard someone cite those two incidents as reasons they don't support UL anymore, but I'd bet my bottom dollar it's just an easy out.
Let’s get the team to do a Let’s go Brandon chant, then maybe we can get the attendance back up a little.
