I didn't wanna see colonel reb go just like you guys, but it's just something you guys had to do and it's over with. Move on. And it's not even that bad of a mascot. There are tons that are worse, way worse. Get over it.

I really don't think the bear will sell much.
Also the name Ole Miss Rebels is more "racist" than Colonel Reb. Would you be willing to support the school if they change it all?

It will sell well. It may take a few years, but it will bring in big bucks for us.

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.

You could become the Revolutionary War "Rebels" and have George Washington or Paul Revere as a mascot.

And Arkansas could become the Dungbeatles.

Not even close to Colonel Reb.

So that's the only thing that you can come up with when comparing schools?
And do you honestly think "setting apart" is always better?

No just saying, we're not really known for academics except in a few select fields like accounting and forensic chemistry I think. We're not really known for football except for people who can remember the 60s. We've never been to the SEC champ game. I mean what is there appealing to a fan about our school without traditions? Sure maybe we'll get one or two more recruits every once in a while who ignorantly thought we were racist before. But most who think we're racist haven't been to the campus or met anyone around the school.
