103.7 The Game to become ESPN Lafayette and ESPN Lake Charles

Why is the 2nd largest public University in Louisiana dealing with this type of crap in our own backyard? People like this should get run out of town if we had any pride. God knows this wouldn't stand in baton rouge if the roles were reversed.

Simple. Baton Rouge is an LSU town. Lafayette is also an LSU town.

She hit you with that triple shot ULL in one paragraph after you specifically state the schools stance on using “ULL” lol

I am done with that station.

Seems Guaranty also reigned in WBRZ…baseball game a few weeks ago was “Louisiana”, this past weekend for softball announcement “at Lafayette”.

Guaranty doesn't own WBRZ; the Manship Family does. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if one of the Manships sent down orders to the newsroom to add the "at Lafayette."

[CajunNation]

Seriously people. That station should be run out of town. They have publicly stated now that they couldn't care less about this university, its alumni, or its fans.

F 'em. A million times, F 'em.

Oh yeah, “The Manship School of Journalism”. They were neck deep in the ‘84 name fight too.

Guaranty still owns WAFB?

Hard to run a business out of town for being pro-LSU/anti-UL in an 80/20 LSU/UL town.

The first thing you see entering Lafayette from the West is Don’s flying the LSU flag directly above the UL flag. That sentiment is woven into the fabric of this city.

Until the politically designed ULS, a system way larger than the LSU system, quits infighting and unites behind the only R1 university in the system and each university kicks their local legislators in the nuts to get their attention, nothing will ever change.

Look you don’t have to love us, but if you want to work and succeed in this area you should at least respect this University.

The don’t go to Don’s. And go tell them why.

I had a conversation with the WBRZ director personally on Saturday. Very close to the family and you wouldn’t believe the stuff he has to deal with when they use UL or Louisiana. It’s not just from fans. It’s from the LSU board and many politicians. They have been threatened multiple times. So when the Cajuns beat lsu in baseball and KATC used UL Lafayette instead of Louisiana like they normally do, they rightfully got called out and all the lsu fans mocked and criticized Cajuns fans for pointing out the issue. Yet here we are with this blatant hypocrisy and disrespect. Who are the petty ones now?
