Can you refute any of what OP said?




much of it can be, some of it is flat out incorrect. But that's beside the point, it was still a refreshing dose of high quality trolling that we don't normally get to see on here anymore.

Yea DSJ, the support is cool but I'll admit that things were stretched to fit the shitpost narrative. Only two of those things are worth discussing, the logo which we already have a lengthy thread about, and the name which is a boring discussion because it applies to many others.

Yea I also saw that the campus was modeled after Yale, at least in some aspects, but I couldn't find enough about it to easily include it. It's still pretty interesting. Can the similarities be seen today?

Thanks. They go by "Vols" and all.

That was driving me nuts yesterday. I spent like 45mins trying to find ways to google it for something to come up. Learned some things on random sports sites though. Ha.

Interesting tidbit about Sherman: he at one time was the head man in charge at LSU The Old War School


Not just the head man, the very first head man at the Seminary of Learning of the State of Louisiana, later the Louisiana State Seminary and Military Academy, and then later Louisiana State University. The A&M College portion of the current title came later as a result of merging the former A&M College with LSU.

Sherman resigned when Louisiana seceded to return to duty as a Major in the Union Army, while the faculty and students joined the Confederate Army.

Using Georgia dating, LSU was actually founded in 1853, although the first students enrolled in 1860, the date LSU uses as its beginning date.

You spent way to much time trying to do a troll thread. You get an A+ for effort, but a C- for execution.

Why do you need permission for a logo you're not copying?


To avoid a potential lawsuit? Even if you feel like you would win, why risk a lawsuit?

This is decent I guess


Like I said....A+ for effort, but I'm afraid the payoff wasn't worth the effort.
