Mascot

[MelRock]

I am on year 10 of we do not need a mascot. That's just my opinion, so go ahead and attack me if you wish. I do not care. We have more important things to worry about before a mascot, and no, we can't walk and chew gum simultaneously.

Hard to buhleeve.... not being able to afford cayenne may be worst excuse ever....

"Around 2010, Cayenne went into apparent exile due to budget issues.[1] In 2017, Louisiana Director of Athletics Bryan Maggard announced that a new mascot would be unveiled within two years. In 2019, a secret committee was discovered to be working on creating a new mascot.[2] As of 2020, the Ragin' Cajuns are still without a mascot. For Halloween 2020, the Athletic site’s social media posted a picture of a graveyard with the words “Cayenne” and “The Fabulous Cajun Chicken” (the former Cajuns’ mascot) on two graves, suggesting that Cayenne’s mascot is “dead” and not making a return"

Louisiana has one... several even, they just arent allowed at the games.

For some weird reason that seems to fit.

its more than just having a mascot, there has to be some buzz about it to get the students and kids to embrace it. An example would be the eagle mascot at usm, the student that wears the costume is a guarded secret until the student graduates then the student gets to wear the feet down the aisle at graduatio. The students love this and they never have trouble finding someone to fill the position

I totally agree with this, but I'll add one thing. There are very, very few schools who have mascots that the students actually care about. Unless your mascot is a living animal or has some other gimmick, most students really couldn't care any less. The idea that the mascot will somehow impassion fans is kinda silly.

I think that is wrong !

A mascot does more then you think. In college football the gameday experience is everything.

If Mascots weren’t liked, we wouldn’t have Disney! Marketing for some companies is based off a mascot!

Think KFC, McDonalds, Liberty Mutual, Merrill Lynch, Frosted Flakes, Planters Peanuts etc.. all based off a mascot! This is College which a mascot is part of your brand.

Come on now let’s get serious if we are trying to move the brand forward we need a mascot
