re: LSU should play Southern in football

And we can hear people swoon over how great Southern's band is, while I'm wondering why people like the sound of dolphins going through trash compactors.

Interesting comment considering the fact that many of the modern traditions you recognize today as "LSU campus and sports culture," is in fact borrowed or stolen (perspective) from well established traditions directly linked to HBCU's; in this case, Southern University.

What you call "Neck" is a song released by the R&B group called Cameo in 1985 on the Single Life LP. Southern's band has been playing it since then.

The chant "LLLLLLLLLLLLL - S - U, . . . L-L-L-L-L - S - U," was first introduced in a talent show at the F.G. Clark Activity Center (Mini-Dome) in the spring semester of 1986, but it was "SSSSSSSSSSSSS - U, . . . S-S-S-S-S - S - U."

The Mu Psi Chapter of Phi Mu Alpha had many songs that were composed and sung by the guys in the frat, and they are unique to that chapter only. In 1989, in the spirit of cross town cooperation, those songs were taught to the brothers at Beta Omega. They are still singing them today in the halls of the music building and around campus.

Southern adopted the name DBU before anyone else in the country even heard of the term, because of a long standing tradition, at the time, of sending great DB's into the NFL; particularly, from 1980-97.

Alvin Haymond 1964
Mel Blount 1970
Ken Ellis 1970
Raymond Jones 1970
Herbert Williams 1980
James Davis 1982
Anthony Tuggle 1985 undrafted
Floyd Raglin 1987 undrafted
Michael Ball 1988
Maurice Hurst 1989
Aeneas Williams 1991
Otis Smith 1991 undrafted
Malik Boyd 1994 undrafted
Matthew Dorsett 1995 undrafted
Jerry Wilson 1996 undrafted
John Williams 1997 undrafted
Elvis Joseph 2001 undrafted
Lenny Williams 2004 undrafted
Ahmad Treaudo 2005 undrafted

There are many others, but who would read the wall of text? Understand what you are talking about before you open your mouth about something you only have surface knowledge of or no knowledge at all. The insults only serve to diminish you.

I forgot how we had to share the parade with southern back in 04 so people wouldn't get butt hurt that we celebrated a national title and didn't celebrate some crappy swac championship

It was the HBC National Title or the Championship game for Historically Black Colleges. If it weren't for this inherent insider racist system that was established through the TV networks and the NCAA, none of the current power conferences could say with a straight face that they won any kind of National Championship. Once all the young black student athletes you so effectively convince to sign with schools and programs that don't help advance their community in any way other than make money and adopt policy that excludes people who look like them. Except of course, where it is blatantly obvious and the situation has reached a critical mass.

BTW, "butt hurt" is a very juvenile, tired, and overused phrase, on this site in particular.

So Southern was the first band to every play that, or did they copy it from someone else too, b/c many schools play it.

Are you trying to insinuate we had to steal how to chant "L-S-U", and we stole it from Southern? Do they teach this to you guys in class? Did every other school in America learn this from Southern?

yeah ok
Mel Blount and Aeneas Williams were the only two that did anythign successful in the NFL. I'll give you Jerry Wilson too since he played for like 10 years, just never really started anywhere other than 2 years in San Diego. the rest of those guys barely played at all in the NFL.

There is no tradition of sending great defensive backs to the NFL from Southern. I guess Patrick Peterson was hanging out at Bella Noches with some Southern players and heard them talk about being DBU so he decided to steal that from them.

there's nothing wrong with you being proud of Southern, but don't make shite up to try to make the school sound better than LSU. They have cool traditions, be proud of them. And I agree that they usually sound terrible as a band playing as loud as possible most of the time, but they are very entertaining.

No no no no. Southern started everything. Anything done by anyone else was stolen from Southern.

I do have a problem with elevating some bogus "hbc" national title to the achievement that is winning a legit title.

The FCS (swac is member) has a 16 team playoff which is the sanctioned national championship of the FCS. The Sullivan poll and the Herritage Bowl and any associated. "National championship" are not legitimate titles as the only teams competing are teams from the swac & MEAC. Two of the historically
weakest conferences in The FCS playing each other does not equate to any legitimate title.

You can argue all you want and try to be politically correct but this is still true.

Nothing politically correct about the fact that anything associated with Blacks are deemed inferior or not legitimate in the eyes of many white men, traditionally. Some Blacks adopt the mentality, but that doesn't diminish the accomplishment or the experience in any way.

Any titles won by all white teams in any sport should be vacated or void using your reasoning.

no

Considering the majority of LSU'S football team is black...

Dont tell them facts like that. They need to be thanking the Swac and Integration for Everything they have on that campus cause they wouldnt have squat if Bear didnt get his arse kicked by Usc.

This mess always cracks me up. That same Riff Raff is on Lsu team too. Give Us Our Kids back then and We'll see what happens next.
