Originally the USL - Ragin' Cajuns. (University of SouthWest Louisiana) later changed to ULL the University of Louisiana Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns. The Ragin' Cajuns are a part of the Division 1 NCAA. The Mascot was a BullDog until 1963 when it was changed to Ragin' Cajuns as an honor to the Heritage of the Proud French based Lafayette area.

Knew it wasn't the NFL Saints or LSU Tigers, so went with ULL.

Fay Butler In fact, from Acadia. Slurring the word Acadian, it came out "Cadjun" or "Cajun."

I went to USL in the late 70s and early 80s before moving to CA. I still like going to Cypress Lake behind the Student Union when I visit. The alligators are still there!

"Cajuns" were Canadians of French heritage who were forced to leave Canada by England and came to south Louisiana because there were many French speaking people here already.
