THE ONE AND ONLY RAGIN CAJUNS?

[TravlnCajun]

Just before going to sleep after reading some of the "One & Only..." Stuff I had this idea. Why not add "Louisiana" in the tag. First thought was to buy a "One & Only" flag, sew "Louisiana" on it, and fly it high tailgating. A "One & Only Louisiana Ragin Cajuns" flag. Now that covers it all. Presents who we are and finger to those who wish to crawfish. Hope I can get it done

It is a means to disassociate "Louisiana" long enough to slow play "Louisiana-Lafayette" into use. But...

... Wimpy!

Agreed... Bad idea. I'm not sure how anyone slow plays a hand that everyone knows is already the case. It's just stupid. Who is going to by a shirt with the new logo One and Only? Not me. Too wordy.

IT's LOUSIANA Ragin' Cajuns. We need some cajones in administration. Enough of this pandering!

FIGHT THE BATTLE!

Great idea for a flag!

FIGHT THE BATTLE!

That "battle" has been being fought for many years now. The people that will refer to us as UL or Louisiana are doing so. Those that don't, never will. Once I accepted that fact, it doesn't bother me anymore when I hear or read UL-Lafayette or UL-L. It matters not what they call us, it matters only that they keep talking about us.

You are right, there is extreme value in the keep-em-talking mindset.

The problem is, that value is divided by however many wrong name options are out there.

Also the keep-em-talking value in Lafayette creates a cubby hole identity that drains potential research dollars and future grad income.

And do you know why? Is it because Monroe is a destination city, the New Orleans of North Lousiana? No, it's because ULM has knocked off Alabama and a few others and gotten well-deserved national attention for doing so.

Spot on.

ULM 's victories over SEC schools(same for LT) did more to push their school's name into the minds of the average sports fan than anything we have done in marketing since the founding of the school.

This is why it kills me when we are on national TV and we have no Louisiana to be seen on a baseball or softball uni. Should be a general rule. If we are on TV, we are wearing the Louisiana unis.

For instance, if we beat Kentucky, with our Louisiana football unis, that will do more to brand ourselves as Louisiana than we have ever done before. Hopefully, the coaches are rockin' some Louisiana gear as well.

When we changed the name, as soon as I could, I bought some decals at the bookstore. They all had the city tag on them. Easily fixed. Just cut off the tag and put it on our car.

I will buy some T-shirts for our tailgate crew this year. It will have "We are Louisiana" on the front.

This is what we have to do. I encourage all of you to do the same. If the school refuses to market Louisiana, then we will.

I agree. Especially for the big away games on National TV. We cannot control what others call us and this is the only time we can 100% control the LOUISIANA message. It is a shame they don't get it.

can people purchase media guides? I see you can download it, but I was wondering about a hard copy. I seem to recall doing so in the past but don't see it now
