JMU to Host College GameDay

Not sure from where this thought is originating from.

No one had to choose.

It’s obviously just an analogy…we can pick any other weekend of the season and the same idea would apply.

Isn't academics legally required to keep Lafayette in the name?

I.e. use of Louisiana is only a sports related nickname, like LSU or ULM?

There is no legal stipulation on "Louisiana" as a nickname reference for academics.

Only on official letterheads and documentation.

Alabama refers to both athletics, and academics, but you won't find Alabama as a stand alone reference on their offical documentation and letter heads.

Miami University is a public research university in Oxford, Ohio.

The University of Miami is a private research university in Coral Gables, Florida...

Neither have the state nor city they are in, in the name

Well the good thing is that UL has successfully stripped Lafayette from its branding. The bad thing is that the change has had 0 identifiable positive effect on the team.

Not so.

Grabbing a moment in in time has sharp edges.

I showed why that logic is folly yesterday. (may have been before your return)


Grabbing one year or a snippet of years would be like grabbing LSU's year after their NC and saying their NC was detrimental to their overall program.

Napier wholeheartedly endorsed "Louisiana." and produced. I don't think that is, why he won.

Every, school has ebbs and flow, grabbing snippets in time from the W/L column and tieing it to name recognition results to make a point will prove weak.

I had to pounce on the only weekend it didn't apply.

I just had to.

Miami (OH) is located in the Miami Valley if I’m not mistaken.

I knew someone would. I’m glad you were first to the draw.

Both are in a Miami county I believe.

I'm so prone to taking the bait I can breathe through through the holes in my face cheeks.

A full, loud crowd could make a big difference in close games and help this young couching staff.

Speaking of this young coaching staff, our OC (who can’t scheme his way out of a wet paper bag) spent last night fellating away.

Miami (Ohio)- no, butler county
The U was in Dade County and county changed its name to Miami- Dade not until 1997well after the university existed

Acadiana loves more than their own team actually named by their ancestors “Cajuns”. Think about that! Until they stop sucking then nothing will change.

We were a top 25 team and they still didn't support.

We were a top 25 team and they still didn't support.

No real season ticket drive beforehand for the general pop.

We were a top 25 team and they still didn't support.

Do people really forget what happened during Covid? Stadiums were empty across the country.

No real season ticket drive beforehand for the general pop.

Is there a student admissions application drive?
