Such a weak sauce argument. When I hear that, then bring up the fact that their academic website is "louisiana.edu," the normal response I get is :crickets:.


Serious question and not a flame: what should our domain be? We dropped the "ull.edu" because ULL is not an officially recognized abbreviation.

Please realize that nothing else fits. Ullafayette.edu? Lousianalafayette.edu?

Tech seems to differ.
Laffy campus extremely lucky w/ bowl opponents...the Nevada that we used to play in WAC would rape Cajuns.
Maybe ULL should change their name to Swamp Leophards, I like it.

Being serious, probably ULLafayette.edu. IMO, they should have just kept the USL abbreviation and re-branded into the University of Southern Louisiana. Would have been accepted statewide with no resistance, maintained the 'USL', still enhanced the outside view of the university for academics and athletics, etc.

Could go by USL, SL, Southern Louisiana, etc. Much like USC, SC, Southern California.

Exactly, and that's a VERY ugly domain name.

The graphic says UL Lafayette defeats Nevada 16-3 which is funny since Nevada was also known as Nevada Reno, but they rebranded themselves Nevada.

fricking at your excuse now being the domain name options are ugly. So instead y'all use the most popular and also misleading name there is for the state.

Only rebranding athletics my arse. Pathetic no one will just man up and admit what y'all are trying to do. I would at least respect that.

Outside of the website url, point me to something official from the university which doesn't use "at Lafayette".

some knuckle head came along and removed Lafayette. The holes from those letters are still there. Times is tough for higher ed. Can't afford to replace em.

Well flagship universities get to drop their city name. Hence LSU A&M - BR is just LSU.
