The post I was addressing said his objection was that the flames were going in different directions. Additionally UL cannot be used by the university without the smaller Lafayette.
My personal preferences are the FDL or the state without any letters. Longhorns, and Tiger Paw stand alone. The FDL absolutely can stand alone. Nobody is confused about the state or city, or Saints. Many people have no clue to where Austin is in Texas, and a great many don’t even know that the longhorns are in Austin. Constantly using the FDL with the oral Louisiana is all we need, unless some prefer being a regional university. If that’s important just UL Lafayette does that.
