Well, going back to the 60's is every Ole Miss fan's biggest dream.

I always thought he looked like that dude from Kentucky who made fried chicken.

From the link in the OP:
Colonel Rebel “will surely becomet he next wonder of the world.”

Exaggerate much? That made the whole article sound like it came from the Onion.

Why on earth would anyone waste $350,000 on Ole Miss athletics? Why not just flush the money down the toilet? The return on investments are virtually equal.


STFU!

That's because it took an especially stupid person to write that letter to the editor.

Symbols are interpreted to be whatever people allow them to be.

When I was a kid, I knew a lady who had been in a Nazi concentration camp during WWII. I once asked her, "why don't you get that tattoo removed?" She replied, "it helps me to sometimes remember who I am and gives me strength".

Well the Ole Miss that they love has been gone for a while, just like bunnyears and home telephones.

Move on or move out.

What's the big deal? It's not like they just pulled Col Reb yesterday. He's not been around for a few years, right? It sounds like they are upset about the mascot being a Black Bear which is just like the Tide's Elephant, right? That's how I understood it. If there were going to be an uproar shouldn't it have happened back when they originally decided to change mascots years ago?

Yeah, right. I'm sure waving around a huge Rebel flag (front and center at EVERY KKK gathering) made all the black athletes real excited about going to Oxford.

Do they have to change all of their chants, songs, or anything else?

I can't even imagine how much money it would cost to rebrand an entire university.

I've still yet to see ANY proof of the supposed four Vaught Society members stopping contributions to Ole Miss. And until I see so, I'll continue to chalk that up to more bullshite coming from the Col. Reb lunatic fringe.



and FWIW....I'm calling it bullshite because you don't have to donate 350k a year to be a member. You become a member once you've donated 350k in a LIFETIME. Quit spouting bullshite....and quite spouting bullshite others create and you fail to research.

It happened....Just didn't happen like it was originally supposed to happen. A slight change in strategy came in to play.



...and FWIW....it didn't have anything to do with what happened this weekend.
