The air rustling through an empty Apogee Stadium on gameday...now that is pretty funny.

Its bad manners to claim to be something you are not. ULM has just as much right as you do to the name. It matters to all Universities in the U of L system to have one of its peer institutions lay claim to the System wide name. I can obviously see that we won't agree and I am not about to badmouth anybody. You guys are taking this way too personally and I guess proving the just of this thread correctly. Congrats to ULL on their bowl bid. Adiós.

As a Cajuns fan, I could care less what people actually call us. When someone says or reads "UL", I think we all know the first school that comes to mind....

Congrats on Polytechnic heading to San Diego. Make the WAC proud...before it dies.

ULM does have a right to UL or Louisiana. In fact, "Louisiana" has been on their helmets before if I'm not mistaken.

This thread is actually funny and I have found it entertaining. USM plays both ULL and ULM and out of respect for b oth we will refer to them as UL Monroe, ULM, UL Lafayette, or ULL. Both sides should be happy that we respect them both. It isnt illegal for either to call themselves "Louisiana". The law only states that if either use University of Louisiana that it must be followed by the city name. So, its alright to be Louisiana. What would really be funny is for somewhere down the road ULM, playing at Cajun Field, ran out of the dressing room with "Louisiana" on their uniforms. Perfectly legal, no school can patent or trademark the state name.

You are right. ULM can put Louisiana. They have.

It's funny no complained about them doing it.

I'll tell you why no one complained: Because everyone here knows they aren't a threat to be THE University of Louisiana.

No one can be a threat to The University of Louisiana because that entity does not exist, cant threaten something that isnt there. I cant degrade or threaten the University of the World because there isnt one of them either. From what I read it doesnt seem that anyone is objecting to the use of Louisana, only complaint is against using UL or University of Louisiana without the required city designation. Also, for everyones information, it isnt against the law for ANY citizen to call them whatever comes to mind. The law only applies to officials or official acts by THE SCHOOL ADMINISTRATION.. They are the ones by law that must use the city designation if using University of Louisiana in any and all transactions and from what I know they have complied. If THEY, the adm, uses just UL or University of Louisiana then anyone, if they cared, could SUE. ULL posters here have invited others to sue or take it to court but the actual law has not been broken. Its broken only if the school, its officials, legal reps, etc do not use the city tag. Gneral public and newspring can use whatever names they want.

So what you are saying is that if every Cajun fan on this site referred to our school as Louisiana Ragin Cajuns and only that, no one would try to correct us by saying Lafayette should be added?!?!

moved.

I cant speak for others however Louisiana Rajin Cajuns is perfectly legal to use as it does not specify The University of Louisiana. The city designation is required ONLY of the school officials or anyone acting in their capacity or behalf and using the term University of Louisiana. Any citizen or newsmedia or any entity can write or call your school The University of Louisiana if they want and its not illegal. Most universities like USM who compete with both ULL and ULM will use the designation out of mutual respect. It IS NOT disrespectful to call a school by its official name.
