It looks to me like some little piggies have just learned a new word. Apparently no one has told them that the use of 'flagship' in a university system has been around since about the 1950s.

They are the co-flagship of the State of Arkansas along with Arkansas State. Per Rant rules, no co-flagship banner is permitted unless you want to be ridiculed like Ole Miss.

It's a stupid reference that people at non-land grant universities use to differentiate themselves. Has become a joke since most non-land grant schools are the smaller, less athletically gifted schools.
