They are desperately hoping this will make Baton Rouge love them. It's really kind of sad.
A did this too a few weeks ago.
window dressing...
this is desperate and pathetic.
“Quite honestly, Baton Rouge wasn’t very helpful” in promoting a unified system in the past, he (LSU System President King Alexander) said.
Their athletic teams have not changed
...yet.
Rebranding the athletic teams would be the next logical step after LSU-S adopted the mothership's colors.“We talked to the Student Government Association today and they said they wanted to keep the Pilots, but they may want to rebrand that,” said Brooke Rinaudo, LSUS spokeswoman. “We’re going to survey everyone. No suggestion will go unheard.”
This is hilarious. I can't tell you how many people I know that say they went to "LSU" and forget the "S" part of the name. I guess if they can start going with purple and gold, they can leave the "s" off of all the school attire as well. They they can feel big time when they walk around with lsu on.
I've met some LSUS grads who think they went to a satellite of LSU-BR
LSUA started this about a month ago. They switched from blue to purple and adopted LSU athletics wordmark with an A added to it.
