Ragin Review Postgame: Troy Trojans

[Turbine]

What we have here is a failure to communicate.

Pregame
Game
Post game.

The feedback we've gotten has been mostly this: "Thank you for saying what needs to be said."

There are a lot of easily offended people around this program and yes, RR rubs them the wrong way. We say, it is what it is. You have to break a few eggs to make an omelet. What we witnessed last night was flat out unacceptable and if you can't get irate about that embarrassment, you don't have a vermillion & white pulse.

No doubt our true supporters have an incredible amount of passion. However I do wonder if there are no longer enough people in the area who care about the Cajuns to come back regardless of how well we do on the field or marketing off the field. I ask that ? In all seriousness and by no means am suggesting we give up or not try some of the ideas suggested on the pod. We have to try and go in for long haul to turn this around. Product on the field does have to improve from yesterday before any of the marketing suggestions have a chance to work.

With regards to the Greeks. They should be the Tip Of The Spear. Contests for biggest percentage going into and staying through all the game. Contests for best game week frat, dorm, and sorority houses. Best GDI game day apparel. Let’s see if any group of 5-8 Greeks, or GDI come up with the best game day look. Make it cheap prizes like poor boys at Old Tyme Grocery.

We absolutely need the administration to be proactive in rebuilding the Greek system. It’s good for the university decade after decade once they’re graduated. I understand the need to regulate hazing, but don’t kill it. Protocols can be reached between the university and Greeks. I say all this as a proud GDI.

The university has pretty much neutered the entire greek system at UL.

Agreed, thought we were expressing things that could help athletics. Greeks are great for both.

It's just hard being a Cajun fan. I'm actually jealous of LSU fans in that they can just be fans. It's tiring feeling like we have to talk about why [insert issue] is an issue. I'm just tired at this point. If Martin Hall and Reinhardt Dr. don't care, I'm just close to not caring. 7,800 people at a Div 1 football game. It's time to press the panic button.

7800 was paid, actual was around 4500.

We had to go back and ask the ticket scanners to count our attendance. I'm sure that happened to more than just us. I don't think actual attendance was less than 5k, but it was brutal. Worst I can ever remember.

All season long the ticket scanners haven't worked. I go to alot of different events across the south and never have I been at an event and the scanners didn't work. Only in Lafayette. It's the small things that keep fans from returning to games.
