Also the name Ole Miss Rebels is more "racist" than Colonel Reb. Would you be willing to support the school if they change the it all?

That would suck....but I would still support the school. Ole Miss is just a nickname. The school will always be known as the University of Mississippi.



...Hell, Most people call us Mississippi on TV anyways.

That's what I've always wondered. Either stick with what you have, or get rid of it all. The PCs won't be satisfied with the switch to Yogi's sensitive cousin. They'll start the shame-campaign to get rid of "Rebels" at the first home game.
