We have the Ole Miss official website from just a couple of years ago:

And secondly, we have an Ole Missus professor explain on TV in an interview:

Not sure why their fans are running from the truth now

Would you like to know how and why Mississippi State came into existence?

You're not going to like it.

The short version is spite.

There's a reason they took that down, champ.

"The ultimate origin is unknown"

For whatever reason, State fans are more obsessed with this than we are. So what if that was where the name originated anyway?

LSU's mascot is derived from a confederate regiment. But nobody gives a damn. We have recruits and players who are coming to our school and don't give a shite where the name originated from. Time to give up on the good fight coach. Trying to claim our name is racist isn't going to keep people away.

I'm going to start a thread about it during Egg Bowl week. To do it justice, it will be a rather lengthy post and I just don't have the time to devote to it right now.

the gist of it is they were part of Ole Miss until they were kicked of Oxford and banished to a town known today as Starkville.
