Had a chance to see what was going on across the Atchafalaya.

Looks like some ULL fans are catching on that their time in the FBS is coming to a close.

Western Kentucky to CUSA

They are already pointing fingers at administrators from the 1990's to blame for their current predicament.

I love ULL academics (where I have my Bachelor's). The sports fan base... not so much.

So Tulsa to the Big East, WKU to CUSA, and James Madison, App State, and Georgia Southern to the Sunbelt?


I can't figure out why the BE wants Tulsa. Its a tiny school in Oklahoma.

I would think UMass would be a much better fit longterm.

I'm reading that thread and those ULL fans don't seriously think they're getting a Big 12 invite?

ULL would do good moving down. Hell, even dropping to D2 wouldn't be bad because they could kick arse there. After last night's showing vs. LSU, their baseball team looks like complete shite.

This dude's avatar on that site.

It must have taken him a while to find a picture of something not bad happening against LSU.

And they would be correct in doing so. Ray Authement really hurt their athletics. They didn't have an athletic foundation until he was gone. He had no idea and no interest in appropriating funds for athletics. The problem is that many were so obsessed about their conspiracy that LSU, by way of legislature and back room political pull was to blame for ULLs financial and athletic problems. They claim LSU keeps them down too protect their flagship status and their recruiting dominance. Its all pretty comical. I would argue that pure penis envy of LSU is what drove boosters and outspoken fans to put heat on Authement who finally decided to retire after 30 plus years as University President.
