The police department of Oxford, Mississippi, has issued an apology after making fun of the cajun accent of Louisiana State’s head coach.

Formerly a coach at the Oxford-based Ole Miss, Coach Ed Orgeron was a coach at the Mississippi college for around three years before being fired.

According to NOLA, when the coach was hired by LSU, the Oxford PD Twitter account posted a message that said “LOLSU #YAWYAWYAW,” poking fun at the thick Cajun brogue that Ole Miss fans found hard to understand.

“We apologize to LSU Nation for our tweet earlier about Coach Orgeron,” OPD said on Twitter. “We wish him the best as Head Coach of LSU.”
