NFL Hall of Famers

Grambling (4) Junious (Buck) Buchanan , Willie Davis , Charlie Joiner , Willie Brown
LSU (3) Y.A. Tittle , Steve Van Buren , Jim Taylor*
LA Tech (2) Terry Bradshaw , Fred Dean
Northwestern LA (1) Jackie Smith
ULL (who?)
ULM (who?)

Take a back seat to Grambling, and LSU's budget is roughly 10 times that of Tech's, but Northwestern?

One prereq may have been to try and convince LSU to go to Ruston and play ball, since it has never happened, and now it looks even worse after last season's close call.

What's worse is Arkansas was beat by Miss State who was beat by LA Tech, so LSU lost to Miss State and Tech by proxy.
Is Lee transfering to another school? A guy at work said he heard Lee was leaving? has anyone else heard anything like this?
Take a look at what that DaSalty is posting. I can't believe he ever set foot in a university, and if he did, I certainly hope it wasn't LSU. Because he's and embarrasment and adds validity to the claims made by those people from Notre Dame who said they would never return to our state because of the treatment they received from LSU students and fans. I think it is great that those types spend their money on LSU plates for their pickups and all, but their behavior does harm.
The thread seems to be complaining that LT fans hate LSU, but the posting suggest the opposite to be the real case. The post right above your last one for example, what is with that? Is that typical of this site or is that guy outside the norm? If you you have no respect for their program then I will not waste time on this thread, but I see both schools bringing notariety to LA. I was out in CA a while back and on two occassions when LSU was mentioned someone thought we were talking about LT. They may be more well known in that area (only).

To explain the refund remark (which was a bit over the top), LSU realy does have and spend more than 10 time what LT has/spends, so if LSU was as efficient the score should have been 10 x their score or 100. In the end we just look at an L or a W, but we sure spend a lot more for the points we score than they do. They also have the smallest budget in the WAC and still manage to represent LA positively over a very large area.

Who said, "I'd drape myself in velvet if it were socially acceptable."
Yes. I have friends and relatives who have attended, and are attending both of our state's top two schools and have been to games at both and cheered for both. When one sees what little they have to work with, their accomplishments are impressive.
I just joined and this is the first thread I looked at. I do see why Tech fans SHOULD hate anything we label with LSU. Those people never had the Kingfish steal taxpayer money to build them a bigger stadium. And the LSU budget is more than 10 times their's yet I hear bragging over a 58 to 10 score. They have obviously gotten a far better ROI. We should all learn from LA Tech how to be more efficient. Has LSU put 10 times as many players in the NFL hall of fame as they. Really, looking at their program, LSU fans and state taxpayers should demand a refund. Get some humility!
