the University should reprimand him for referring to an improper and illegal name to the fans. as he is a university employee and a representation of the university, you are contradicting yourself saying the university themselves aren't advocating for this when it's blatantly obvious




The University isn't going to monitor everything the coach says. If Hud saying University of Louisiana gets the school in trouble, they'd tell him to stop. There's a difference between the university making a push and Mark Hudspeth selling his program. For you to sit here and say they should tell him to stop what is making him so successful is just stupid.


quote:

So official media outlets of the university can call yall just UL and the university has nothing to do with it at all?




The University has guidelines on what they are to be called, every university does: LINK

quote:

Do not refer to the University as ULL in any instance.
Do not use the terms Lafayette or U of L, as they denote other institutions.


Athletics Nickname

quote:

Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns® is the nickname of the University’s athletic teams. Teams also may be referred to using shorter versions of that nickname. In most cases, Ragin’ Cajuns plural is proper, though Ragin’ Cajun in the singular form can apply.

Please include a registered symbol (®) as a subscript for the first reference of the term Ragin’ Cajuns® in text. The registered symbol must appear in every use of the logos.


quote:

Unacceptable Styles

Laf or L (instead of Lafayette), La or LA (instead of Louisiana)
Hyphens or commas in the name, abbreviation, or nickname
Ragin Cajuns (without the apostrophe)
Lady Cajuns (former name of the women’s teams)




I don't see a single mention of UL in any of that.

yep. not even on the unacceptable list where it should be. if you're going to list unacceptable uses, UL should definitely be one.
