2013 Staking a Claim for Louisiana

[CajunDreDog]

We need chants during the ULM game!

This game on Nov 30th needs a "We are Louisiana!" theme.

Make freaking t-shirts and rub it in!!!

[CajunDreDog]

I can hear it now....

"Fans, welcome to Cajun Field. For today's game as your Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns host the ULM Warhawks. Our game today is sponsored by Louisiana Hot Sauce and our theme is "We Are Louisiana."

Scoreboard BETTER read Louisiana and ULM!!!

[Geaux]

It's really time to play "big bank takes little bank". What do we have to do or how much hush money would it take to make this happen "legally". ULM barley exist as a regional university with no aspirations to bea leader in the UL System or in athletics. Either get down with UL or lay down to UL.

I notice in the article that President Bruno of ULM and his Athletics Director did not make a stink about it....both stated that they have ULM to worry about...not what someone else calls themselves.....this woman who wrote this is on a vendetta

JONESBORO, ARK. — When the Ragin' Cajuns played Arkasnas State Tuesday night on ESPN2, there was a lot on the line. Winning that game arguably sets up the University of Louisiana at Lafayette for its first conference championship in 43years.

The rest of the story ...

As I dose off

UL6%

ULL 16%

Louisiana(Your vote) 42%

Louisiana-Lafayette 28%

Better than UL-Monroe 0%

What were you dosing, Turbine?

So now Tabby is running smoke for the losers. Instead of asking why their team sucks, she is fixated on UL.

[Camz]

Seems pretty clear that ULL partnered up with ULM in 1999 in order to get the name change and now regrets it. Thems the breaks.

Never understood the big stink about the name.

I have not seen anything from our University stating that we are wanting to brand ourselves Athletically as "UL". I do know that we officially wish to brand ourselves Athletically as "Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns. That kind of inaccuracy is just what our friends up North need to stir up more false crap. I have also not seen any official move by our University to drop the "at Lafayette" from our full academic name, "The University of Louisiana at Lafayette". We fans and supporters always refer to ourselves as the University of Louisiana. The University never does this as it is against state law. Lets get this right .

Tabby is the front man for ULM. I mean front woman. She does the heavy lifting while the president pretends to be above the fray. One can only wonder if there is enough political pull to change the law again, or in Louisiana simply read into law what is not there.
