I kinda like it. Probably trying to get rid of the name "Maravich Maniacs" because the section kind of turned into a bunch of maniacs.

Anyway, here's the press release:

What do y'all think? Good change for the CJJ era?

Who does LSU pay to come up with these slogans and nicknames?

Just read the link. So very sad how far LSU basketball had fallen from my years at LSU.

The roar corps is the worse nickname of anything I have heard in a long time.

Coach Jones likes the nerds


quote:

When I used to come out that tunnel, (the noise) would never stop," head coach Johnny Jones said. "That band would crank up and that cheering section would starting going, you would be numb. That's what we have to get back to. We look forward to unveiling out new student section against Florida and hearing our fans respond when we take the floor."

i think they are just trying to rebrand due to the negative stigma of the "maravich maniacs"

what sucks is LSU poured a ton of marketing money into the student section after TJ's first year...and from that point on the team was so awful that it didn't matter how much money they put in it was going to be hard to get people to show up

the Maravich Maniacs idea could have taken over better, but then once the "weird kids" took it over it pushed even more people away

don't really like this new name, but I like the re-brand

It's like a real life group from Revenge of the Nerds.
