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]
