Yes many of the TECH faithful were down on our bowl selection that year, but I dare say that none of them said that we were too arrogant. The only thing that gives me pause is her preconceived notions of TECH. With that, she has a steep hill to climb. If she makes that climb, she will grow mightily and hopefully prove to be a great marketing person. Are you up for that challenge Aimee? If so, you should begin right now with a statement that says so and put to rest your statements of the past. If not, then you need to move on.

Dawg06, is this really from her account?

Oof. Didn't catch that she was at Vandy at the time. That campaign made even the stuff we do look genius.

Yeah, and that wasn't Vandy's only recent social media marketing blunder.

A few weeks ago Vandy marketing revealed their new uniforms with a football player posing in a silly position. It turned into a viral meme sensation with people editing their graphics to mock Vandy.

Vandy may be in the SEC, but their social media marketing belongs in the Sun Belt.

Several weeks ago Vandy announced they were undergoing an "intense internal review of their social media practices." I wonder how that turned out. Maybe that's why Aimee went looking for a new job to work for the snobs in Arkansas South. Maybe not, but we will probably never know her association with the "no permission" and "deep water" marketing campaigns.

Wow. Somebody in the business who may someday be back in Louisiana has no business insulting other state schools. Horrible judgment.

Seems like the type of person who will leave and start insulting us again.

Or worse, while they are employed here.

Exactly. Or even worse, something more damaging than simply insulting us. An insult should be the least of our concerns.

This is a day and age when the Cardinals are hacking into the Astros computer systems.

Thankfully our computer systems are far too old to hack.

While I am hesitant about this hire..... a lot of people on this board have expressed similar sentiment about the bowl fiasco and they are 100% Tech people.

I agree though, I could never work as hard for another University as I could for Tech. We will see how she performs. TMac needs some positive news. Lets hope it works out.

An alumnus of ULM that was at one time an employee of Louisiana Tech Athletics never misses an opportunity to post derogatorily about Tech. I guess things have changed but I find it bad form to criticize a former employer.

I don't care if she didn't go here. That's irrelevant to the discussion. What is relevant is her public disparagement of Tech and adherence to illegal policies. We shall see if these things change but so far this is an inauspicious start.

There you go throwing that education around again using big words. We get it, but any @ Lafayette readers will be confused.

[GermDawg]

Time to move on, her Twitter account has been deleted and rumor is she removed herself from consideration...(probably to relief of the admin).

That's just a typical SunBelch line from NLULM, USL-LaLa at the time. That ignorant lie was spread on social media: even my NLULM grad sister believed it and had no idea that we really wanted to weigh other offers and wanted more time, like was given to teams the following year. Aimee was probably just repeating what she'd heard. If she's of the right character and ability she'll work diligently for Louisiana Tech. If not, we'll know fairly soon.

Personally, I will forgive her prior usage of the illegal/unethical/improper UL and/or Louisiana. From this point forward, she should never refer to the Cajuns other than with the @ Lafayette. The proof will be how the @ Lafayette game is marketed. She's in a tough spot there as if the correct name is used, as it most definitely should be, she will be blasted by her fellow @ Lafayette alums. I read that there were threats made to Tabby Sognier regarding an article she wrote which included @ Lafayette's name game.
