No Reechard instead of English Rich ard
Our identity has nothing to do with wins and losses. Our identity is tied to ULM and the SunBelt. To the outside world, we are Louisiana Lafayette and UL-L. Until Dr. S takes a firm stand and we actually market ourselves as Louisiana and not our inconsistent and half-___ attempt at it, get bold EVERYWHERE in our resolve to be Louisiana, get our conference to call us Louisiana, and separate ourselves from ULM, we will be UL Lafayette to the world outside of Lafayette. We are delusional to think that winning alone will solve this. It has been 15 years since our name change. I am really getting fed up with this university's lack of resolve.
You are right, it's not tied directly to winning. Winning would help the process, if and only if, there was a solid commitment from the UL administration on making Louisiana it's primary Athletics name. Winning would help in making that effort more publicly known to a broader audience. So, since there isn't a strong voice coming from Dr. S, then winning won't help. Unfortunately, it's Politics that is the biggest obstacle, and Dr. S is certainly all about that and is wrapped up all in it. Political pressure from outside the University seems to be too much for Dr. S, and he doesn't have the stones to push through it.
ULM will undoubtedly get out of the Bottom Ten with their victory today over NMSU.
So we still laughing at ULMOST?
Whew, didn't make it.
