    Well it wasn't just style. He was more conservative in reality but that doesn't say as much about him as it does his opponent.

Y'all should just change back to USL & call yourselves the U of South Louisiana. Sounds great, no confusing double names.
    Please attend to the faux pas that Techmutt xxi's handlers can't seem to wear appropriate gear & let us worry about winning football games

    I did it, I stole the Lafayette portion of the sign, brought it back here to North Carolina...Melted it down, used a mold injection to turn the liquid iron into something that looked like a block of candy, sent back to UL in care of the Cajun offensive line...they snack on em before game time! I understand a few of the D guys settle in for some iron intake as well.

Buy your season tickets. Help promote and support Cajun athletics. Get friends to the games, meets and matches to increase revenues.

    Watch Rocky's speech in the streets to his son on You Tube, the clip from the last Rocky movie. That's how some of us feel about the situation. Instead of constantly complaining about someone else mistreating us, get out there and prove we should be Louisiana Ragin Cajuns and give others in the state a reason to be proud to have the state's name associated with our brand.
    That's what we all do and have been doing, regardless of winning or not. Kyle talks a big game, but he has very little to back that up besides money. You forget he was about to not renew his tickets earlier cause something wasn't to his liking. This guy is full of hot air and is about as loyal as a fungi. Kyle doesn't get it and will never get it. Please don't put this guy on a pedestal as the voice of our fan base...we are better than that.

    Good piece AND good show today, Jay!! I was the one who emailed you about Bill Decker today. I can respect why you didn't call him out by name. My issue was the fact that he--as an editor working for the local paper which "supports" UL--took it upon himself for whatever personal reasons to undermine and to some extent embarrass UL AND it's supporters. I also find it interesting that the UL articles have different headlines on the website as opposed to the print edition, with the online ones being VERY inflammatory. Makes me think there is a hidden agenda with Gannett! jmo

    Jay THANK YOU for ALL you do to promote UL!!!

I'm wearing a Cajuns hat and jacket right now" was just fantastic.

    I'll say this, listening to the local guys today has made it abundantly clear how much ignorance and misinformation is out there about this issue. And to be fair, a lot of the folks that don't get it, just don't WANT to get it.

    Looking forward to BEV.
    You are talking about two DIFFERENT calls and callers. The man wearing the Cajun hat and jacket is my best friend and is NOT "Texas Mike." He is a HUGE UL softball supporter who sat next to T-Joe at a game yesterday, and Savoie brought up the name issue, saying that he's been bombarded since Tuesday night. Joe made the comment to him that academics, as well as athletics would GREATLY benefit from dropping the "Lafayette" designations...i.e...faculty and $$$$!!

    Well for one thing you're one of the worst football teams in the nation in the worst football conference in America. In fact the only Sun Belt team ranked lower than you is Georgia State. I'd say y'all are having some problems at the moment.
