Louisiana's Push for Tier One status

[Big Buds]

Ignore the negative posters talking realignment. They know jack _____ about what’s going on now and what’s coming in 5-7 years.

We have leadership and infrastructure in place to greatly improve our situation when the deck shuffles again. We will be peers with Big 12 institutions. Anyone thinking that’s a pipe dream knows nothing.

I too am extremely encouraged about what I've been hearing from some behind the curtain. The foundation for greatness is being poured right now!

they need a relegation system as there is in european soccer. wins and losses on the field, take out the bias and money.
too many times i see certain teams not meet the same criteria that is said others need to move up

Hopefully what is happening behind our curtains matters to those behind the curtains of those institutions of which we are trying to become peers.

Our AD has 18 years experience with those guy behind the curtains we want to be associated with.

The sky may be the limit when you move from your contacts being generated behind the curtains in the corner booth at the Corner Bar to being created behind the curtains in the thick of things at a P-5 school for 18 years.

MAT I hope you are right! Rusty Clotier once said he went to a Oklahoma State game to see the stadium! That our Cajun Field will rival when done adding on to and remodeling

I don't believe that UL will ever be peers with Big 12 institutions. We simply do not have the resources it would take to do so.

I'd rather us aspire to become peers with UH, Memphis, UCF, and USF. There's a chance that something like this could actually happen some day.

That simply isn't how things work in this business. P5 schools have no intentions of including any G5 school into their elite group. The very reason they formed the P5 in the first place was to put greater distance between themselves and the schools that make up the G5.

Don't kid yourself. Napier is just like every other up and coming coach. His focus is on using any "contacts" he has to promote HIMSELF and his ability to make the move up to a P5 institution. That doesn't make him a bad guy, it's just the way things work in this business. In fact, any time you hear any coach at the G5 level talk about wanting to "build the program", it should insult your intelligence. It's what they've got to say at press conferences and such, but there isn't a lick of sincerity in it.

Don't kid yourself. They will add any school that they deem an asset.

They will add any school that is making the G5 look stronger.

If your lockdown theory held water the NFL would be 16 teams strong.
