I love when all the people call that name change illegal. It was legal, LSU made it illegal after the fact.

But whatever, I'm just enjoying all the butt hurt and the subsequent denying of being butt hurt.

I'm sure Ohio St makes such an enormous deal out of U of Ohio being the university of Ohio


Probably has more to do with the fact that Ohio University is over six decades older than Ohio State University, and was established with that name.

Whereas, ULL has gone through several name changes, and is nearly four decades younger than LSU and six decades younger than the original University of Louisiana (Tulane). With the most recent nomenclature being less than 20 years old in the case of ULL, the fact that ULM also had a name change at the same time, and the odd pushiness/desperation to be known simply as "Louisiana," it's easy to see why so many in the state get aggravated with ULL's naming bullshite. It's as though they are embarrassed of who they truly are, and are putting on airs to be something they are not.

Why is their mascot name not simply Ragin' Cajuns? Had to find another place to thrust that they are "Louisiana" onto the landscape? Would the nation not assume that Cajuns come from Louisiana?

Prove it. I'd like to see which ranking you're using for this assertion.

Anyone from ULL/USL/La-Laf making fun of any other football program/town in the state is beyond laughable considering that every other team has more wins, bowl games, &/or post season appearances in the last 35 years compared to the Cajuns recent run of 3 NOLA bowl games.

I don't really have a problem with it other than it being a dry county. But that post was just response to a latech fan talking crap.

Right, because football is the only thing that matters. Forget the success weve had in baseball, the facility improvements that have been done and are still being done, and the fact that our donations/funding have improved dramatically the past few years.

As far as programs go, LaTech is the only one that's better but I have no idea if they're growing at all or anything like that. And they're definitely not out of reach. Not by a long shot.

I just think that if the state is to call a school the "University of Louisiana", it should be academically equivalent to what that name represents.
We have one U of La (called LSU) and the taxpayers haven't shown any inclination to fund another.
