Your Conference Choice for UL

[Trigger74]

We have all been talking about it for over a year. So, let us now see where the majority believes we should be and why. With enough votes, willing to take to the administration as proof of our beliefs.

As you can see, I am still in favor of an all sports for all members conference and believe the best way is with a revised C-USA.

For the short run, we need to stay in the SBC. It will help out our baseball program (which CUSA needs) and playing some of the schools in the SBC will revive the football program, which is the focal point of admission into a new conference. But within 2 or 3 years, we NEED to be in CUSA. If there was some way to pay off Toolame and get them to vote us in CUSA, then we would be in. But I just can't see Toolame voting for us to be invited into CUSA right now.

GEAUX CAJUNS!!!

I think our 10 year goal should be the SEC. That's right, the SEC.

We're already there in Baseball, Softball, and basketball. Football is laying the right ground work. (our current recruiting class may be in the top 40)
UL enrollment is larger than several SEC schools. And if most of the money in Lafayette stayed in Lafayette, we would be funded at the same level as many of the SEC schools. On paper we can get there. The problem will for the most part be the current closed minds of most people (this can change with a little time & success) and......well.....you know

We would have a better chance making it into the Big Twelve. Lsu-br would let us sniff a chance of the sec

Is CUSA what it once was?

Even if CUSA is a shell of its former self, how long will it take the Sunbelt to be what CUSA is now?

Cajun Field is smaller than all the other SEC school's stadiums.

No joke we would have to add the upper deck on the student side. Has anyone ever talked about adding dorms into the architecture of Cajun Field?

I'm for staying in the SunBelt. It's not that bad a conference. We're just as good as the Wac and C-USA. The SunBelt will get it's second Bowl bid in the upcoming years, and once the basketball programs of other teams in our confernece pick up will be just as good as the MWC.
