What does cancellation: none mean?

You said it's cancelled does that mean we no longer have naming restrictions?

Nick was correct in stating that UL Lafayette is a correct name for the academic institution.

That has never changed since the agreement. Obviously branding athletics does not apply,

And they never pressed him on our Louisiana name. He just said he would continue to stick it to us on the ULL/UL Lafayette name and that was laughed off. I guess they can continue to call us what they want as long as the conference and national media continue to refer to us as Louisiana. You would think the conference would ask all members to abide by each team's branding preference. I guess that's not happening.

They are going to mirror what ULM does with us. Refer to us as Ragin' Cajuns on their online schedules, throw Cajuns on their scoreboards. Their coaches are going to call us Lafayette in press conferences.

Their ESPN+ broadcasts will have to show Louisiana.

If adjustments are not made on the home front, Tech is going to own the Louisiana brand in 10 years.

You can bet that Tech will do everything they can to destroy our marketing efforts. The question is what will we do about it? My guess is that our administration will offer up the usual lackluster efforts. Maybe throw out a PowerPoint. Or some other 1990s Scott Farmer-ish lameness. Trust me when I tell you that we better do everything we can to be unfu*kwithable on this.

I bet they will, and the 2 most responsible will be long gone.
