This just makes the shite talking even better.

Just a reminder that ULL is not legally allowed to refer to itself as “UL” or “Louisiana” in “academic, public relations, athletic, as well as other purposes not specified.”

Right, but for all I know, that guy typed that up in Word and tweeted it out.

I'm wondering what the source is.

It's from this. I found this the other day and posted it in that big, back and forth thread with ULL fans.

I don't think so. Jim Henderson responded to the tweet saying that the university is actually aware and that their branding falls in line with that.

That tells me its mostly the fans that use UofL/UL.

Not true though. They cried to ESPN for a long time before they changed. Jerseys all say Louisiana. Endzone says Louisiana and has a hedge display saying UL.

They may have, as that memo is from 1998. However, the way I found said memo was through a link in this article written in 2013. So, if it changed, it changed in the last half decade, but the push from ULL has been going on for far longer than that.

ULL can’t remember the last L; why do you expect them to be able to read the law?

It's called putting them in their place.

You must not have had siblings.

Unfortunately for the younger sibling, they usually talk then get body bagged.

Oh my god who the hell cares. They can call themselves University of Earth, it wouldn’t bother me a bit.

Get over it. It’s making LSU fans act like little bitches.

For being on such a higher level than them, those Cajuns sure are all up in the mighty Tiger Rant's head today.

Nah.

We’re just still having fun at the futile antics of our little baby brothers.

“We deserved a home game because we’re better except for the technicality of the final score!”

Sing to Yankee Doddle tune. Little Laffy-Taffy went to Baton Rouge just to lay an egg!

But, but! Our RPI (Really Provincial Index)!

But we had all those wins against Xavier, La College, and Mary without William!

You should join in! This is more fun than winning game one of the NIT!

I'm fine with them going by UL if there is an asterisk that notes they are, indeed, not the flagship university of Louisiana.

USL, ULL, or University of Lafayette are all perfectly acceptable.

But the LSU envy of Louisiana or University of Louisiana are NOT acceptable.
