Cajuns to Wear “Lafayette Strong” Decals This Season

Louisiana head football coach Mark Hudspeth announced today the team will wear "Lafayette Strong" decals to honor those who were involved in any way in the Grand Theatre shootings.

“The community support and what I saw at Cajun Field, and now what I see driving home every day, with all the Lafayette Strong signs out in the community — it’s unbelievable," said Hudspeth.

 

“It just goes to show you what a great place we have to live in, in Acadiana and Lafayette, So I’m very proud to be a part of this community, and our team feels the same way.

The teams' decals will feature the Acadiana flag and outline of the state of Louisiana, much like the yard signs that have been seen throughout the area.

The helmet decals will be worn throughout the 2015 season.

Hudspeth made the comments Wednesday at the annual UL Media Day held at the Alumni House.
