Thats why they are who they are and found themselves crawling back to move up to the SBC, just not sure what people really expected maggard to say.

"____ Tech"

Anything else, leads to discussions like this.

We agree Maggard is probably in a lose-lose situation with whatever he says about it.

My stance on the entire thing is we should have never allowed ourselves to be in this position to begin with.

Here we go with the "name" BS again. How long we gonna keep beating this horse ?

My post had zero to do with name, but it did have something to do with image and likeness.

Right now LSU gets equal support from every corner of the state.

Do you think that support would remain if there were 3 equals to LSU in the SEC all in the state of Louisiana?

There is no way. In fact their ceiling of likeabilty would be reduced by 2/3rds.

Thats a different conversation but he really couldnt have said anything else, especially if our president (his boss) was just a yes vote...maggard doesnt vote.

They don’t, but they certainly have influence. Same for the Commish of the conference.

'We are going to make this work, and look forward to dominating on the field of play.'

Not "this is good for the conference"

Louisiana Tech, a national research university with more than 12,000 students, joins Appalachian State University, Arkansas State University, Coastal Carolina University, Georgia Southern University, Georgia State University, James Madison University, University of Louisiana at Lafayette, University of Louisiana Monroe, Marshall University, Old Dominion University, University of South Alabama, University of Southern Mississippi, and Troy University as the 14th member following Texas State University's departure to the PAC-12.

I wonder if our AD or MH will demand Tek refer to us by our athletic branding......This will be the first test for UL to see if we have any balls.

They used all of the official academic schools names just so they couldn't be called out for calling us Louisiana-Lafayette. Those people are LSU puppets and will never comply.

I don't expect anything to change on their website period. The deal is with ESPN and the SBC. Is it 2027-2028 yet?
