What happens to the money if yall only reach half the goal to make the "suit"?

They keep it. Corey where you at?

Folks, this Alligator is white. Where in all of creation is a white alligator related to Louisiana. We have black Alligators in our one of a kind SWAMP in the MIDDLE of our CAMPUS.

Name him NIL for all I care.

The Albino Alligator university research history such as the ones in Florida were originally sent from Louisiana after finding them in the wild here.

This seems like an easy solution that I can support. Make the gator mascot green with a red outfit and change the name. We can have a fan created mascot with the university's support. Let’s make it happen!

They only have a slight green hue due to the algea stain.

Brought this up when Al first showed up on' RP. Its a pretty good guess that most of athletes at UL are black...A white gator is not going to go over well...Better to come up with another name and a new color to go with red, cause with this generation and the wokeness on campus, you're just asking for a fail.

This is the dumbest idea for a number of reasons. First off, "albino", a genetic condition. Second, Florida has the Gator and we are Louisiana - why would we copy another state and their mascot? Third, the Ragin' Cajuns is a diverse community and this idea does not conform with who we are.

I understand gators have a slight dark green hue. Everyone can immediately relate to a green gator with little confusion of what it is. My High School’s mascot was a gator and our colors were black and gold.

Looks like albinophobia is real because albino knows no race.

No, but our administration does...

Ragin' Cajuns would have never seen the light of day with the shadow worrier culture.

Never will a university administration choose as its mascot a whitened version of a non white animal as its mascot, in this day and age.
