The transition marks a return to the LSU family for the University &#8211; a place it called home from 1958-2011. Athletic teams will remain the Privateers and continue to compete in the Southland Conference.<br \/>\n\u00a0<br \/>\nSOCIAL MEDIA<br \/>\nFans are encouraged to follow\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.twitter.com\/PrivateersVB\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@PrivateersVB<\/a>\u00a0on X,\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.instagram.com\/privateersvb\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@PrivateersVB<\/a>\u00a0on Instagram, like\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/PrivateersVB\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\/PrivateersVB<\/a>\u00a0on Facebook and subscribe to the\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\/privateerathletics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">PrivateerAthletics<\/a>\u00a0YouTube channel.<br \/>\n\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>                <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; &#13; &#13; Next Match: vs. Mercer 9\/11\/2026 | 10 AM &#13; Sep. 11 (Fri) \/ 10 AM&#13;&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":455756,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[88,90,89],"class_list":["post-455755","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-san-jose","tag-san-jose","tag-san-jose-headlines","tag-san-jose-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/455755","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=455755"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/455755\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/455756"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=455755"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=455755"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=455755"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
