I wonder if these clowns realize the amount douchebagginess it took for them to have to display to get LSU fans to actually want to pull for Tulane over another in state school?

ULL is under the impression that if they go by Louisiana then it'll make the Big 12 want them

The purpose of calling themselves Louisiana is for marketing publications and other promotional items. Schools all over the country change what they want to be called. Examples in the MVC are UNI they wanted to be called Northern Iowa for years then all of a sudden switched to UNI. SMS (now Missouri State) used to send out on its press notes IT IS SMS not SMSU not SWMSU SWMO SWMOSU. I went to grad school and worked with Maron and Farmer when they started the push. It is a branding issue, its not trying to be something they are not. People know they are not Louisville (which goes by U of L). People that argue over this are silly and uninformed. They arent changing the name of the school, they are changing the brand that the school goes by. Just like if LSU decided to be called Louisiana State instead of LSU.




What a load of shite. Especially this part

Not everyone wants to go to LSU. It's not because they are "too dumb".
of course not all, but specifically my friends who went to ULL none of them got accepted to LSU. They still wear LSU gear all the time like many others do at the smaller schools in Louisiana

Then you have no clue. It isnt the University switching names, it is the Athletic Department.

I don't have the foggiest idea what you're talking about. If your name is Bill, your birth certificate says Bill, people call you Bill, and then you tell people to stop calling you Bill and start calling you Ted, well, you changed your fricking name. You can tell people you just changed your "brand" all you want.

Is the athletic department somehow exempt from the law? The athletic department is under the purview of the university. If the athletics changes it's name, then the academics side will naturally follow suit.

That's the whole goal, and why it makes your argument look dumb. We can all see what's happening here. As a university, they are trying to brand themselves as "UL"

Look at the brick work around campus. It all has the UL interlocking. No lafayette to be found.

Own it, and say you want the whole university to be UL, because we all know it's true. Y'all just come up with dumbass arguments like this as justifying the means to get there.

You proved in that one sentence what UL is trying to do.

It isno different than McDonald's calling themselves Mickey D's but legally they are still McDonald's.
