Conference Realignment & The Ragin Cajun Brand: Rick Jones

Captain and Chief Creative Officer of FishBait Solutions, Rick Jones, joins Ragin Review for an incredible discussion. Rick's clients include, The World Cup, The PGA, ESPN, MasterCard, The ACC Network, The Olympics, The V foundation, Bank of America, and Wimbledon. He also assisted The University of Missouri during their move from the Big 12 to the SEC.

We start with an inside look at the Mike Alden Report, Rick's responsibilities with Louisiana Athletics, his impressions of the cULture and our potential in the market place of collegiate athletics. We'll navigate so many different topics, including Realignment, the future of the SBC, TV Networks, the viability of the Ragin Cajuns brand, developing a real rivalry, rethinking the GameDay experience and so many more quotable moments. We're proud to bring you this small piece of Louisiana Athletics History!

"I'm looking forward to the day when GameDay comes to Lafayette" [9:13]

"Success is performing to the limits of your potential" [47:34]

"One of the things I've found in Lafayette that's a weakness is, I don't know who your rival is. But I'll tell you who your rival is. It's the school in Baton Rouge. You just haven't accepted it yet." [57:35]

"If I was comparing you guys to App State or Coastal, no disrespect to App St or Coastal, but shit, they're hard to get to; they're kind of in the middle of no where and y'all are easy to get to. " [1:01:32]

Ragin Review







Gerry Hebert originally hails from Kenner, LA. He is a life long follower of Ragin Cajuns Athletics, former team manager for the Ragin' Cajuns Football program and UL alumni. He is the son of former Board of Regents member, Strongman Letter winner, prominent USL alumnus and decades long booster Gerald Hebert. Gerry serves Ragin Review in a multitude of ways, but none more importantly than running it's numerous social media accounts. He is also the voice behind "Maaan, I Tell You What!", a grassroots effort to bridge generational gaps within the Ragin Cajun fanbase through storytelling and poignant commentary.

Nick Domingue is a long time Cajun baseball stalwart. The former PA announcer for Tony Robichaux's baseball team, brother of long time Cajun baseball coach Chris Domingue, and creator of Planet Radio's hit show "The Hangover Cafe" joins the RR team to provide an insightful, comedic and informed view of Ragin Cajuns Athletics. He's also responsible for the familiar graphics, memes and video content you know all too well form the RR social pages. Nick is a Louisiana graduate and a resident of Houston, TX.

J. Cole Jagneaux, or as many like to refer to him, ManAboutTown. While formerly an on-air staple with Ragin Review, MAT has moved into a support role. He'll primarily handle marketing and communications, while making cameo appearances to support the cause when necessary.
