Overstatement. Their fanbase isn't the one murdering each other over a loss, poisoning trees, teabagging, or attacking rival fans in the stands.

THAT fanbase is the worst. ULL's is merely annoying.

I really dont get why they hate being called ULL. If ULM didnt exist then fine, take UL, but sorry, you're no different then they are. If they kept ULM it would look like they are a satellite school of you guys and they aren't.

On top of that, why wouldn't they want to be called ULL? That's a unique name and nobody will ever confuse you with the other UL who has the same colors...

ULL is a unique brand, UL just looks like you're trying to be Louisville.




I agree with this. Lafayette is very Louisiana. It's very cajun. It's the best thing they have going for them from a branding standpoint. I can't think of anything that matches what they want to do with their brand better.

I cant' figure out why they are running from it. It's obviously an emotional decision.

Ben is saying the same thing we've been saying: "Why the f*** do you care?"

Dudes just hit a walkoff homerun in a Super Regional and they're worried about an extra L.

They better worry about Poche's meatballs, because he's not getting out of the 3rd inning tomorrow.

And Tony's going to pull some Andy Gros earth-shaking ____ before this thing's done, too. Watch.

Like holding back Milhorn for Monday.

IDC what y'all are called and I think many feel the same way. A lesser school in the Sunbelt is never going to be the flagship school in Louisiana no matter what your name is. Your teams still lose to McNeese for goodness sake. You could call yourself Louisiana Flagship University and it wouldn't make a damn difference.

At this point, it's just funny to point and laugh at ULL about the name issue IMO.



dude, fricking this.

I don't understand why they ever went away from the football helmets with the Acadiana flag on them.

Thats cool and all but people keep screaming that you arent gonna be the flagship...except no one is in here arguing thet are. Idiots just keep saying it when no one is arguing it.

The "they" said so and so is just lsu fans saying they heard it. Not one ul fan has been in yere arguing they are flagship of Louisiana

Its absolutely amazing how much lsu fans care about something that doesnt effext them. Even bugging the shite out of ben mcdonald on twitter over it.

Not in this thread, but they are trying to change the name because they want to be seen as the flagship of the UL system. That's has actually been said several times over many years. It's not just being made up by LSU fans.

I have many friends that went to ul. None of them have visions of being seen as the flagship. I need to see non trolling post about how they are doing it to become the #1 school in the state

It's embarrassing on our end honestly


UL or ULL or UoLaL or whatever they want to call it literally does nothing to you

The name change is an attempt to be seen as the flagship of the UL system, like LSU is to LSUE and LSUA.

I'm surprised the other schools haven't fought harder against it.

Do UCLA fans get mad because UC-Berkely is called Cal?

There are 10 campuses in the university of California system and all 10 are named UC(city located). Lafayette needs to get over their complex.
