re: Is LSU a brand all in its own?

LSU has been very successful in the past 150 years. We are are highly ranked in winning percentage and total wins. We have the 2nd most SEC titles and the 2nd most NCs in the SEC. We are in the Golden Age of LSU football. Give it time. History will look at us as one of the greatest football programs in college football history. Our success will speak for itself.

I was in the military from 97-08. Between Texas/Arizona/Florida from 97-99, Hawaii 99-03, North Texas again in 03, and now California to this day since 03.

This is a tought question. Yes "The World Wide Leader" kills LSU's exposure. Yes the sales numbers do speak for themselves. But I don't see it in the stores outside Louisiana and never really have. Even during the championship seasons.

If I want LSU lootz, and I always do, I need to go online. I know this. My wife DEFINITELY knows this .

As a brand, I would think LSU is a brand. A brand created and cultivated very well by its own fanbase in Louisiana. So from what I can tell, LSU fans might be putting money back into its own better than any other fan base.

Just a thought
