Had a blast, ran into an old friend who used to be a hard core LSU fan. He was wearing a UL shirt, I thought the better of it and didn't remind him of his past life. He has season tickets and is already or plans to become an RCAF member.

It was packed, a really nice crowd. The also did a freshmen convocation at the convention center at 4:00, so a bunch of new Cajuns showed up.

All the players seem extremely excited about the season AND LOVE THE BLACK lol

Cant wait to see em in action!

Hud gave a good speech to get everyone fired up. He said he wants to "smother Lafayette in Vermilion and white" and run out all the "other school colors". This guy demands respect and you can tell hes got his hand in everything. Overall, i like that they moved it to the dome....much cooler, they showed a great highlight video and it just seemed more "top notch".

That video gave me goose bumps and got me excited! Anyone else?!

Great event. The best thing they did was move it to the Cajundome. Great sound system and video to really promote the upcoming season, Air conditioning, double the cheerleaders with some really good "talent", revamped dance team and Hud to really fire everybody up. There were tons of people there and the uniforms looked a lot better in person than on the net. I think the university did a great job putting the event on. Oh, did I mention more good looking cheerleaders? We don't have any more fullbacks on the squad and the girls were really excited that they got some new leadership. They are running two squads now and I guess that means they will travel for more events and make more ladies events as well. Even they mentioned that things were really picking up and they noted the enthusiasm that has taken over the athletic program.

Great event and great turnout. What was going on at Cajun Field though?

Don't know but there were tons of Greeks there, might have been a lecture on the long term effects of STD's. Just sayin.

It was part of the new student orientation program. 3000 new incoming freshmen, largest incoming class in history according to T-Joe.
