What you may have missed is Dr. Maggard's response on Twitter that he doesn't make decisions on Cajun Branding and that he shares everyone's concern. Translation, he ain't happy about it either.

I did see Maggard s response. That’s what has me puzzled, the merchandisers have no clue of the schools effort of branding for the last 15 years. Fire them all and bring in people who know.

I told the poor girl to let the management know and administration know that alumni were ____ed at the selection this year and that ____ed off alumni don't give money to the school

Yep

Maggard's redirect response pretty much confirms something Ken Ardion hinted to me 20 years ago.

Louisiana Athletics has low to no input on something it should be the lead dog on.

Apparel sales should be reflected in the Athletic budget. Instead some other arm of the U is profiting from the athletic brand.

History, coupled with the design language tells me it's either academics or the Alumni Association. Again, based o something Ken Ardion hinted at decades ago.

The sad part about this is the athletic receives all the royalties for apparel. Evidently, they have no say in what is approved. One thing that has been asked for and continually denied is gear with "Cajuns" on it, whether in script or just block lettering. We have so many alumni that would buy something with USL on it, but again, Martin Hall says NO.
This is a big, NO HUGE, problem! We cannot continue to throw our history away. It is time for Martin Hall to get out of the way and listen to our alums and supporters.

Regardless of who gets the revenue from the apparel sales, the sales would be much higher if items that fans and alumni will actually buy is made available

Purchased this not long ago from the website. Crazy how inconsistent they are huh?

Who made the decision to have a 3rd party run the red zone store?

Duane Bailey

Having a 3rd party run the store is a good idea BUT, someone at the University should have final say in approving every single item being sold.

Me thinks it all comes down to the trademark on "at Lafayette"...and who gets that coin.
