The only time ULL crosses my mind is when I head west on I10 and see the signs in Lafayette.

No comparison...why even dedicate a thread to what everyone knows as USL?

Tell me you aren't comparing doing well in the SBC with doing well in the SEC.

ULL has a very good softball program, but otherwise they suck more times than not.

frick, they are so bad that La Tech is even leaving them in their wake.

I never ever think about ULL but for a time we play them and if you think the same is true for them about LSU, your seeing about 200/200.

My dad went to USL and my brothers wife did grad school at ull. My mom went to LSU, so did i and my brother. So yeah it comes up in conversation, but we dont play them every year in the main sports. We are in a better conference, LSU sports us known more nationally. So with me there is no obsession. I havent even been to laffy in 6 years and i was birn there. I really dont even know what the name of the school is anymore.

This should help with the name thing

quote:

UNIVERSITY NAME The University of Louisiana at Lafayette is the official name of the University. Please use this name in all first references. The University is acceptable for a second reference. The following are NOT acceptable references: ULL, U of L, U of LL, and U of L at Lafayette. UNIVERSITY LOGOS The University’s logos fall into three main categories: the University seal, academic marks and athletic marks. The University seal is used exclusively for presidential correspondence; commencement-related items, such as diplomas and invitations; and select consumer products related to academic success. Colleges and departments should use the academic logo and the secondary academic logo to represent their academic department or college. The University’s athletic team name is Louisiana Ragin’ Cajuns®. Teams may also be referred to as Ragin’ Cajuns® and Cajuns. The term Ragin’ Cajuns® is a federally registered trademark and should be accompanied by a registration symbol “®” when the term is used.

I assume that one must live in Lafayette for these issues to have any significance.
Without reading the whole thread, is the crux of the argument still "We've changed our name, so now we are relevant..."?

Right...except most folks are bullied into calling the university UL in Lafayette, despite...

They don't even have the balls to call it UL.

I don't think you've mentioned enough times in this thread that you went to USL. Maybe you need to state it again. I don't think 4-6 times was enough.

You just boiled down the argument I had with Joey Durel the day the name change became official. He was giddy as a school girl because NOW the university was legitimate, and not some double directional school! For him, and his ilk, he truly believed the name change would be the catalyst to being something different without any REAL talk about changing anything else.

I believe the response that got me yelled at was, "Fine, Joey...but Jon Lovitz could change his name to Brad Pitt, but that wouldn't mean he'd be nailing Jennifer Anniston anytime soon." He was...unamused.

Nobody is holding USL back but themselves

And the only shite I give about USL is when we play them

And I went to school there

They need to quit whining and step up if they want to be taken seriously

And I could care less what people call the university, I was just citing what the university released. I think I speak for most fans when I say if it was up to us we'd go back to being USL
