2014 Branding Fiasco: UL-Lafayette or UL-L (SBC Reference Guide)

[Hudsheen#Fired]

I can not believe I am going to say this.
Why dont we just go back to USL, instead of this damn hyphenated crap

[CajunDreDog]

Go with UCF. They'll drop off a bit after losing Bortles and some other players to the draft, but Florida is bursting with high school talent.

Great idea! UCF game and Disney World trip together. I like it.

Any other ideas?

If Hud leaves for Vandy (and who wouldn't blame him now), I can be a Vandy fan.

Buckley, T-Joe should be at the basketball game this evening. Please hit em up for a response.

T-Joe might catch this one on ESPN 3 from the Martin Hall bunker.

My question is why make such a fuss if you are going to tuck tail and run when you get confronted? If the name issue is not important (and clearly it isn't) then say so. Don't rally to Cajun troops and the city, and start making demands to espn, cbs, fox and other universities to be called Louisiana then end up with this result. What happened to us making progress on the name front?

From Buckley:

Tim Buckley‏@TDARaginCajuns2m
UL spokesman: University president Joseph Savoie "unavailable" today for comment on name issue.


**My only prayer is that there is some explanation that we don't know about yet.

"Unavailable" as in he wrecked his parent's car and he just parked it in the driveway and went to his buddy's house without saying anything. Complete horse______.

Why did we even bother going away from USL? It's not like we can go back, but that sounds so much better than UL-L

It was an Academic decision. From an academic standpoint it was easier to attract better teachers and students being called the University of Louisiana at Lafayatte then University of Soutwest Louisiana.

Hope I see Joe at the basketball game.

That's how we got to Tier 1????


Wait, never mind. That's another "about to happen" thing around UL-L.

[CajunJack55]

Maybe instead of "the U," we can go by "the Hyphen."

Thanks! I needed a laugh today!

"The Hyphen"

Yeah, and while we're at it, if we want to be "small-time" can we go back to "small-time" RCAF donations, etc. I mean why should I care. Clearly, our "leaders" don't.

Next shoe to drop...HUD takes the _____HC job.
