re: should UL-L be in the SEC?

I grew up in Lafayette when it was first SLI & then USL. Their basketball teams under Beryl Shipley were the best in the State, heads & shoulders above any LSU team. I was a huge fan & would follow them on road trips around the State. At the same time, I was a huge fan of LSU football & had family season tickets going back to 1961. But eventually USL fans made you choose one team or another, the hate was so strong among a hard core USL fan base. Not all USL fans but I & many LSU fans in Lafayette back then got tired of the B.S and chose to support LSU only. There is a reason why there are bama jerseys all over Lafayette when LSU plays bama.
