    Don’t hold your breath.

    Awesome work Cory.

    To the fans that support Albineaux, if there is anyway you can get this presentation in front of Dr. Savoie or Dr. Maggard, I would greatly appreciate it. I do not care about being recognized for any of the of work I put into developing this character. What I only care about is the fans and the students of my alma mater.

    There's been so many discussion and anguish with things are not and never will be in our control. We can't control if an athlete is going to get a bigger NIL deal. We hardly have a say who’s on the sideline of our sports teams. But a mascot is something we can have a say on. We need a character that is never going to enter the transfer portal or move on to a more lucrative job. We need a spirit leader that is organic and consistent, and that is where our university as failed.

    I'm afraid if we allow the administration to put out another nonorganic mascot, we are going to end up in the exact same place as soon as it doesn't serve a new administration's agenda. Cayenne died because no one cared enough to keep Cayenne when the budget got tough and a new AD took charge. The marketing guy that imaged him had no investment in the community. With a new character, what happens when Maggard is gone? What happens when T-Joe retires? We might get left with something that we will have to ask if it was ever really ours' in the first place. That terrifies me.

    That is why, despite me being in graduate school and having a ton of work to do at all times, and having two jobs, a relationship, and an entire in film post production, I made time to create this presentation. But I am only one piece of this bigger puzzle. That is why I do not care for recognition. I am still so so small in their eyes. That is why I am begging for anyone who is as passionate about the future of UL as I am to help in this effort; to make the character yours; and to set a foundation for Cajuns fans BY Cajuns fans.

    It wasn’t their idea so they won’t use it.

    Cory, unless you've got some sort of registration, copy right etc. Anyone can poach your work, you need to protect the NIL (no pun intended) of Al and your work...

    Copyright is why we almost never use the script Cajuns

    But I’m not trying to gate keep Al. I want someone to take Albineaux. I want all of you to take the character. I’m not doing any of this for a paycheck or credit. I fully believe I will be successful in all my other artistic ventures.

    From the start, all I wanted to do was help solve a problem I started seeing with the fanbase.

    Same when it comes to the UL situation and coming up with a logo that identifies us as Louisiana I totally understand!!! Just trying to see it progress. It’s hard when the Administration doesn’t want the same thing .

    Ragin Cajuns ! I guess that’s the name of our school.

    I like it, stands out from other mascots and would be gold with kids

    I believe most suggest getting it registered isn’t for profit, but protecting it from being stolen from Louisiana. Florida and the Swamp just one example.

    I'm somewhat indifferent when it comes to a mascot. But if we want or need one, I like Albino! I also really appreciate the amount of time and work put into it by CouillonCinema.

    Sadly why can’t the administration act and we wouldn’t have this situation. No one is saying they have to do everything we say. Like I said this year we should be pulling out all the stop to be able to build fan engagement!!

    Just do it !!
