2016: LA the new "official" abbreviation for stats, crawls, etc

[GeauxCajuns]

Jay and everyone else needs to not even put the "don't use ULL OR UL-L" because people still see it. Just reference what we want and leave everything else off

Yep.

We will always be UL-LAF with ESPN...our admin may put this out, but I have no confidence that they will grow a pair and enforce this.

but espn is not biased against us, so why wouldn't they listen?

gold!

This is just an attempt to get ragin pagin focus off of the putrid offense and the fact that HUD has never recruited and developed a high school QB into a starter in six years. Don't take the bait stick to what matters.

So how many times have we "rebranded" in the past 9-10 years now??

[ULGrad@HOU]

I'm not sure what the driving factor is with coming out with this now, but if were a meaningful, enforceable change, of course it would be great. We will see, we all know it is totally dependent on what our Admin (T-Joe) does to market this brand and protect it. Can't get our hopes up, could be another misfire.

Actually this is important. It will probably end up being the first shots fired in a statewide battle, but by the Univerosty officially having a stance, it shows that their confident in the name usage, the legality and the purpose behind it. As dumb as our admin can be, they're not dumb enough to misunderstand that this will come with scrutiny.

I'm happy that this is coming before baseball season, when our team will be plastered all over the college baseball world.

Key take away, "initial mention: Louisiana".

True, but the important thing is that they finally got it right.

There are a myriad of reasons to be upset right now. This isn't one of them. This is a good thing, a VERY good thing.
