Even LSU graduates and students should be offended. ULL or any other school in the ULS system is not even equal to LSU in this state and a name change would imply that.”
All this is telling me is that people would get their feelings hurt. If this is the case, then I say use the name. If people are gonna get offended by what another school calls itself, then you deserve all the butt hurt you get.

On the academics side. I believe you can find most of their athletics programs referred to as "Cal."
Nobody up there would mind if referred to as Berkley

There is not one guideline in the law that states that the school can't use "Louisiana." It only states that the school can't use "university of louisiana" or the UL abbreviation.
I swear, where was all the bitching when ULM had the script "Louisiana" across their helmets a few years back?

I'm not offended. I think it's just extremely funny how hard they try and fail so hard.
This. I still don't get it. Irony is ULL fans are calling everyone else the whiners. They are trying so hard to change how they are perceived and fail every time

Maybe it's because it's LSU, Tech, and Monroe fans bringing up the topic at least once a week. Nah, that can't be it.
Posted on 10/23/13 at 12:08 am to jimithing11
nobody outside of Lafayette even thinks about calling them anything other than ULL
Posted on 10/23/13 at 12:08 am to Cajunese
How does that defend the fact that your school is trying way too hard to create this imaginary brand and failing miserably?
As an outsider, it's hilarious and pathetic at the same time.

But they "couldn't care less" about UL/UL-Lafayette/USL.
Oh...wait...check out today's column from that whiny bitch at the News-Star.

shite's been going on for years and it screams Napoleon complex. They bitch when they aren't called UL and they bitch when everyone makes fun of their need for attention.

Look, truth is ull has beaten NOBODY in football... Their signature win last year was ULM, let that sink in. So until they start actually beating people, their name is way down on the list of moot points.
