Wow that’s a good idea man. They should do that

We prefer The Louisiana Tech. Shouldn't ya'll be looking at the Ole Miss board?

Used to be Louisiana Tech!
Or just Tech if you’re into the brevity thing.
I think they should have already decided and had a state resolution passed by now.

I don't think I've ever heard anyone say L-A tech.
I also noticed on their board the other day that they constantly refer to us as LA State. I think it's supposed to be some sort of slight.

Louisiana Tech is the name. Tech short. LaTech is used for Athletics.
Personlly i dont know why they care so much about how its pronounced. Since its a state abbreviation, L-A is fine. Just as Georgia is G-A, or florida is F-L. Nobody pronounces those out. “Lah”Tech just rolls off the tongue better. But its not as big of a deal as they make it.

Yep, it's just Tech. Like Mississippi State is just "State".

Well, people on this board freak out over the most trivial shite. I remember some years back a guy freaking out over Brando(?) referring to LSU as "Louisiana State". You just never know with a fan base that in a perpetual state of rustlement.

My Grandpa is a Tech alum, I've only ever heard him refer to it as Tech or Louisiana Tech. I just find it hilarious that that's on the front page of their football board and has been ongoing for 2 years.
I wouldn't go calling out another fanbase for posting inane shite

41 Pages in 2 years? They need to get their numbers up, those are rookie numbers.

L-A Tech vs LaTech
Both wrong. It's "Louisiana" Tech.
Posted on 9/19/18 at 5:49 pm to DOPEman
It’s actually neither of those two.
Say it with me...
“Tech”
