Dr Maggard Being Proactive (student support)

Can I suggest a Trail Ride from Frat Row to the stadium prior to gametime....complete with zydeco wagon and a traveling can at the back...

Which is one of the dumbest things and aboslutely kills game day participation. They tried to do a student tailgate on the Row before a basketball game and it got shut down.

But we're begging them to show up to games? It's moronic

Yes. A few students took it upon themselves to get the crowd up. Talked up the pre game for the whole row in an empty lot that used to be the Theta Xi house. UP’s quickly shut it down. University police is another organization that has it out for the organizations on fraternity row and make sure they don’t congregate and have fun.

More of that warped thinking that if we force empty the parking lot during the game they will "all" go in the stadium.

"If no gameday activities are allowed on Greek Row, they will ALL go to the game."

Martin Hall wants every student at the game, stone cold sober and quietly wishing the opposing players the best of luck.

I am not kidding.

We just finished playing Fun-roe in baseball and softball.

The way Martin Hall is treating our students, we may become known a No-Fun-Row.

Well, hell. So it sounds like, when it comes to building a strong alumni base, Martin Hall is achieving the physically impossible.

I’m closer to 70 than 60…it’s sadly now obvious, later in life, to me, having seen two ADs that are absolutely game changers, the college I feel so much passion for is nothing more than all talk, no action.

If Maggard up and left today, I would not blame him. And I’m sure the search radius won’t be nationwide…parish wide if we’re lucky.

We DESERVE to be called ULL. When it comes to athletics, our leadership can’t think outside the box, or past the city limits.

Most of us here are older alumni. Martin Hall does not care for our passion, only our money. Why are we passionate? Most here either participated in UL athletics or we attended the games and had memorable experiences. Talk about missing the point 101.

How about a new name for RCAF members…”The Two Thousand”. Because that’s all UL will get with their approach. And we’re aging out.

This is insane! I didn’t know this.

I'm all about new ideas... but struggling to envision this being something to take off.

[CajunVic]

Trail rides definitely don’t take off. They are usually slow and they stink.

I know a cattle rancher/horse trainer, he says trail rides "Smell Like Money."

I have been on many a trail ride in my days and in the end, they all stink. Horses at a trail ride are normally not on ranches or races.

Translation: What you call "stink" brings in money thus the "trail ride" smells like money.

Empty stadiums smell great and generate zero dollars.

Trust me, nobody in their right mind are leaving their horses tied up at Cajun Field and going into the stadium for a football game. But have at it.
