...slap in the face...

No offense, but I would have been just as curt with you with phases like that. I know you want to know the answer, but acting curious would probably go farther than acting accusatory.

Tuffguy _you said "Lafayette" Ike is going to repeat "Lafayette"

Well, when phrased in the idea of "It feels like a slap in the face" it isn't accusatory, its more of an acknowledgment of why its upsetting to people who supported him in college. I don't think that it was taken that way, because if it was, I doubt I would have gotten a response at all.

Well, I would hope to god that he would know what university he went to. I referred to the fans who live in lafayette and followed his college career, as I stated. Even then, a ULL or Louisiana Lafayette is better than Swaggin.

From Ike: Troy, I’ll see what I can do. Thanks for writing.

Mike,
Hey, great to see you doing so well with your career! I have built a sled for my kids to pull as your uncle had you do when you were younger. I can see results already.


I am wondering if you could do the Acadiana area and UL a favor. When referring to our beloved University of Louisiana would you please address them as Louisiana, UL, University of Louisiana, or Ragin Cajuns? We know from time to time you are able to be on prime time TV and state who you are and where you went to college. The name change could be really bumped along tremendously with the use of Louisiana or University of Louisiana!



Please do your part as a loved and respected alum of UL,

Troy

Like I said, if he got a couple of concerns about the situation, I hope he'll fix the situation.

You didn't really call him Mike did you?

I got a personal email back from Ike, too. Like his responses or not, at least he took the time to respond. I was plesantly surprised by that!
