LA Tech can create the best marketing campaign in the world. But as long as the perceived "state flagship" school keeps playing for NC's every 4 or 5 years, it's going to be next to impossible to draw the average "WalMart" fan away.
I know some people will say that what happens in Tiger Stadium is immaterial to LA Tech's fortunes. But that's a foolish notion when you consider the fact that we're fighting for many of the same "average Joe" fans in north Louisiana. It really matters.
