I'm looking for our school, and can't find the FDL.
Then, I see our sorry looking moniker. It looks so outdated and bush league.

Long term I don't believe it will either. And I certainly don't believe we have not been in discussions with other G5 schools looking at the possibility down the road. Eventually I believe that we will end of in a more regional conference, but nothing will move that direction until the P4 shakes out about us.
In the meantime, I don't see the need to jump ship to a West Coast Conference with losing programs because there are rumors of a much greater media rights deal. Any such move will raise the travel cost of this program exponentially and many fans are _____ing constantly on this site about the rising cost of UL athletics, but we should gamble on the new rebranded PAC whatever because loads of people will be willing to pay for the increase cost of such a move. LOL!!!!!!!!
Whatever dude...if you think that other members of the SBC would "stay together, stay strong!" then enjoy playing ULM, McNeese and Lamar every year.
I think a former softball player years ago said "I'd rather be a small fish in a big pond, than a big fish in a small pond any day".
UL must be ready. At the same time, any move, if offered, must be evaluated.
For example, the PAC 2 wanted some lifeline football games last season. The Cajuns and many other “G5s” passed. There was no return on the single game.
This has been an entertaining thread (a few laughable and illogical posts), but your point at the end is so right. Must be ready.
We’ll find out soon, but it appears UL is making a Napier-like dive into MBB. This has to be sustained and is the most understated and critical part of any future movement.
More investment has to be made into football and basketball to show others school is serious (NIL being a key component).
Time will tell. History isn’t on the optimistic side.
You don't know me but go back over the last 12 years on this site and look at who discussed subjects like Primary Media Rights, 2nd Tier and 3rd Tier media rights. I guarantee you everything you hear publicly is less than a 3rd of what is actually going on. I'm all about moving this program forward, but a little common sense doesn't hurt at times.
CajunT has always been a good balance of aspirations and common sense.
