and be formally known as the Black Bears? Seems like that could the next target after the flag.

this is why I ask:

@PBC_Sports: KFSM-TV: Fort Smith School Board committee passes motion to ban "Dixie" song at Southside for 2015-16 and "Rebels" mascot for 2016-17

I could see it happening... Not the black bear part though. Just hope we never lose 'Ole Miss'

The moment we drop that or "Ole Miss" is the moment I start sending my donations to State or LSU instead.

I would put serious money on our nickname never becoming the black bears. I do however expect us to drop Rebels at some point.

I'd prefer one of our two rivals to just destroy us in all sports if we ever become so "progressive"

We were the Flood before we became the Rebals, so I wouldn't mind going back to that if we must

Eh, we got rid of the Rebel back in like 03 and Dixie a few years ago. No biggie.

Y'all didn't realize how progressive we were

I actually think the Flood is a pretty sweet nickname... original and relative in a way.

I wouldn't have a problem with that if need be. I don't think it will come to that though.

Whoever is rustled by a flag and a mascot is a pussy and ghey.

Using a mascot inspired by a flood that killed thousands of people is offensive. Do not support.
