To everyone wanting a stronger message, you had a chance to chime in earlier. It is what it is, which is pretty damn funny IMO.

I drive through Birmingham every time I come home from Ohio. Nothing but shitty drivers with a fat “A” plastered on their vehicles. I can’t wait to see pictures of the billboards and see how gumps react. Should be epic. Job well done.

I’ll send this to Lee Peck. He’s a local reporter for channel 10. (Mobile Alabama news station) He’s from Lake Charles, I used to watch him there and know him enough to pass this on to see if we get a bite. Worth a shot. When will the signs be up?

The guy I know at Lamar is looking into it. I sent him this thread and the NOLA.com article.

I agree. A stronger message is needed than "free white"


Then you should have suggested something.

SEC is the Southern Elephant Club

#FreeDevinWhite is better because it is trending on twitter. Trust me, anyone who worries about SEC football will know exactly what those billboards mean, especially the SEC administration. Kudos to everyone who donated, two billboards and a donation to the Vet School, Geaux Tigers.

When the SEC let Saban handle Raekwon Davis’ punishment internally when he was on video throwing 4-5 punches to the Mizzou player, that right there reminded everyone that Saban and Alabama/REC runs the SEC.



This.

I love the idea but a stronger message calling out the SEC would be awesome.

Haha, ask a question.

Why is Devin White's situation not being handled internally at LSU?

or something to that affect! LOL

On hold with Lamar now. Probably the first one. I know there have problems in the past using "Tigers" in the purple and gold scheme.

What about that third one with the LSU jersey background. That one is clean and the white will be bright as hell at night.

They won’t run it if we do that. Trust me, I was at a local JV game last night here in south Alabama and everyone was talking to me about the DevinWhite suspension. They know who he is out here.

First one gets my vote over 3rd one, only because LSU has been known to go after color schemes like that

You didn't even donate
Step aside

3rd is best by far!

Double fricking dare them to do that here. There will be blood (figuratively speaking).

Sometimes its not in their hands. Like TAMU has to protect the 12th man thing no matter what or they lose the trade mark. Now, they can officially license it for $1 or something but they can't technically just let anyone use it and not go after them at their own discretion.
