I Guess The Students Won the Fight

[Turbine]

Maybe one year they’ll figure out Thanksgiving weekend crowds at UL are not that great.

Noon on Thursday when people are off and bored is the only solution

Wait, didn’t UL try that a few weeks back?

Everyone was working on that particular Thursday.

Less than 100 students at the game.

To Be Fair!!!!…student attendance has always been crap on the Thanksgiving weekend games. It just is what it is.

Hey MH. Thanks for one of the worst student turnouts in College Football. Stop raising the American Flag in front your building. You are a disgrace to College Football. You are a disgrace to Acadiana.

[facelessjonmoon]

You’re not wrong there

The students and Acadiana in general won the fight. Folks are tired of the same ol crap.

Well deserved victory for the students who didn’t show and as always the fans who came out in dozens. Solid win.

Maybe a few less than normal, but I feel like this is pretty typical for a Thanksgiving week student crowd. Guaranteed no message sent.

Truth.

[RaginScotsman]

No one won. That was an embarrassment.

I get it’s a holiday weekend, but come on. There was no one there. Regular students. Greeks. Random people.

Still, after a few days has anyone been able to answer what the Greek chapters in all these threads were penalized for? The pitchforks were up from the beginning of this week’s salvo.

What are the allegations?

You nailed it!!! Thanks

The Greek saga of this year didn’t cause that abysmal showing. Thanksgiving and ULM did that. If the Greeks could have partied, that woulda been 100-200 extra students today? And they would have left by halftime.

Cajun4life is right that we need to support and grow the Greek orgs moving forward. But that should be only one of a multi-part plan to increase student engagement at Our Lady.

The problem is the majority of students coming to UL grow up in SEC country around family and friends that only care about LSU. So how do you increase the amount of kids you can convert into UL football fans? That will take some coordination between MH and Reinhardt that seems to be lacking.

One non-UL led initiative is unfolding at the elementary school that my wife teaches at. Principal is a diehard UL fan and the school is UL-first.

Not an excuse. Too many schools had student overflow attendance today. Not us. This is a major problem we have to figure out.

Nailed it. That is just an built in excuse. The administration needs to do a total reset and figure out how to market the Cajuns to Acadiana and the surrounding areas. 2024 @ OLOL will definitely be a cluster ____.
