Let's try trimming up those oaks first before deciding we feed them to the wood chipper.
I do enjoy trees. I have 2 live oaks in my front. 4 years ago when the canopy started getting low and blocking the view of my house from the road I called coach Seth Thibodeaux’s brother to trim an lift the canopy over the roof. Made a huge difference in beautifying my curb appeal.
If I don’t catch the light at Cajundome and Congress I can be home from Cajun field parking lot in 2 minutes. In that short drive I probably see in the neighborhood of a couple 100 live oaks tree tops. I have never suggested any of those should be removed.
Just an FYI as you insinuate that I have something against all trees.
Some of the comments on here remind me of this bunch in California. And if not for these kind of people I am sure the University would not have trees hiding 75% of its new structure either.

There is no shortage of oak trees in south Louisiana. I’ll never understand why people think cutting a few down is some unforgivable sin.
I do see where KK is coming from when looking at the structure from Congress. The trees cover the entire view of the new structure. The old upper deck was so big the trees being in front didn’t matter. As a kid I used to love passing by Cajun field on the bus ride home on a Friday before the game and being able to see the old scoreboard being tested along with a nice view of the upper deck. Just trim the damn things and be done with it.
Fans have paid *100 times over the asking price to tailgate under the Oak.
Make these Stadium side Oak Trees the premier tailgating Spots.
ps * The asking price was zero and they offered to pay so I really don't know how to do the math.

In 50 years when they finally demolish the Cox building and build a fan square like they once dreamed of doing, they should move those oaks to line that area.
