I would love to see them soon reunited in the neutral grounds of the American.

Hospitality at LaTech?

Sorry you had a bad experience, especially if it was in the last four years. Four years ago our administration decided to make some changes to the Game-Day experience and it has really killed some of the tailgating. They have made it really difficult to easily set up, come and , and have a good time.

Again, hope you have another chance to visit and take part in the experience. Hopefully the fans will have made some progress in getting their fun part of the day back.

You haven't been to Marshall yet, huh?

No, but nobody should say anything bad about the Almost Heaven state. They're on the front line keeping us from being woke from the American dream.

If I had to choose between going to see USM play in Ruston (I've been there once, wasn't impressed) or going to see the Golden Eagle play in Lafayette (been there as well), I would pick Lafayette every time. Then again, when I attended USM, we played ULL several times, but didn't play La Tech at all during that time period so I feel more of an attachment to ULL. I know some USM fans hope we keep playing La Tech in the future, but I could honestly not care less if we ever play them again.

I have, and though the weather absolutely sucked I had a wonderful time. Band fraternities had a ceremony together completely on their own, not scheduled or planned by the marketing team. Had fun downtown, even saw Huggy Bear at a restaurant downtown (he was on a recruiting trip). Getting there isn't easy, we know all about that thought. Always liked Marshall and wish them nothing but the best.
