Will the Cajun fan base be disappointed if you're not referred to as Louisiana when the visiting team?
I don't see how this could be considered offensive to any reasonable person considering @ Lafayette visits Ruston this year.
Well, here goes another thread to The Pit so these two can make the same posts 40 times each.

We should invite all of Lafayette's recruits to the game.

Geauxpnc sure has lots of fun posting and ranting on BBB. His use of all caps and multiple uses of question marks and exclamation marks tell me a lot about him. He can post all he wants, this is a still a free country. I only want to ask him one question - If ULL was asked to join Conference USA, would he support them moving to CUSA and leaving the Sun Belt? Seems like a straight forward question that will tell us his state of mind. I am not casting disparaging remarks his way as he does to us. I only want to see where he stands on this simple question. Geauxpnc, what say you?
Geauxpnc, like all ULL fans, would wet their panties if invited to CUSA.Quote:

Most Sun Belter's seemingly consider the SBC superior to CUSA, but they all covet CUSA membership.Quote:

Back to the original purpose of the thread...
I-Bowl rescue: Give new sponsor’s CEO whatever he needs

I listened to the LSU radio network when they played ULL in the baseball playoffs. The LSU announcer studiously called them only ULL or Ragin Cajuns. Nothing else. Never came close to calling them anything else. After the game, the color guy did call them Louisiana-Lafayette a couple times.Quote:

No mention of the huge white elephant in the room, no public acknowledgement of their snub of Tech. Tech IS the institutional advantage!!! Invite Tech instead of Ohio and there is no money issue. Idiots.
Soooo glad we're in a conference where we don't need those ass-hats anymore. Onward and upward, we've passed the Idiot Bowl by.
Great post!!!! Green for you!!Quote:
