From the marketing geniuses who brought you Toonces...

It's "The Roar Corps"! Coming to a basketball arena near you.

Roar Core would be ok. Corps doesn't look good in print.

Anybody remember the Front row Lunatics back in the day? I believe most were there when I was at LSU from 1979 thru 1983. My buddies and I usually got down to about the 5th row for each game and the Front Row Lunatics usually kept the student section and the whole PMAC fired up for that matter. Also had the cream of the crop LSU basketball teams for most of those years also with the exception of the Shaq and Chris Jackson years and the one or two good years under Brady.

If I was a student, there is no way I could sit in an area labeled the roar corps.

Sounds a lot like LSU is trying to be like Texas ATM.

Horrible change IMO. I understand if they want to rebrand the student section, but that name is awful.

Watching the 6 dorks at the game cheering is more entertaining than the actual ball game.
I record it just for that reason.

Why does everything have to have a name or label? Geez. It's so forced and contrived that it just sounds ridiculous. How about just waiting for a decent product to hit the floor, for students actually show up, then letting nature run it's course? Marketing people suck. And just wait...before long, this bad boy will have a sponsor and it will be something ghey like "roar corps presented by raisin' canes"

I think it's rather, "Once we started losing, and only the diehards were left" that's how we came to this situation.

Dear LSU admin:

Here are a few more lame, rhyming names you can consider.


The Scream Team

The Loud Crowd

The Hoarse Force

If Rotolos doesn't have it already. They were the sponsors of the Maravich Maniacs.

Why doesn't LSU do focus group test before they put this shite out there? Or just pay someone to leak it on here and see what their audience thinks!!

I know it will never happen, but I always thought "Pruple Haze" would be a perfect name for the basketball student section.

Everyone could wear purple shirts, and free Abita for the first 500 students!
