Ole Miss Students Will Vote On Changing Mascot

Beth Hall-USA TODAY Sports

Next week Ole Miss students will have the chance to vote on changing their current Black Bear mascot. Per The Clarion-Ledger...

quote:
Dion Kevin III, president of the Ole Miss Associated Student Body, said in a letter that students will be able to vote on the Landshark as the new mascot, which would replace the Black Bear mascot chosen in 2010.

“The Landshark as we know it today has its origins in football, but has since expanded to symbolize Ole Miss’s fight spirit and athletic prowess,” Kevin wrote. “On September 26th, we will all have the chance to leave a legacy of unity and excitement in a referendum vote in this year’s Fall Election.”

Any suggestions for a new mascot?

By definition: *The Land Shark is already the mascot of Landmark College in Putney, Vermont. *A speculator in real estate. *Brand name of a beer. Sounds like a good one for Ole Miss.

I think the fighting banana peels has a ring to it. Seems to fire up a certain demographic however.

Maybe it would be more fitting for their football team to have a "Landshart" as a mascot?

yea, because that will make a real difference in the lives of students. I'd love to see them focus this time and energy on the absurdly high out of wedlock birth rate, high school dropout rate, criminal activity, etc. But no, let's focus on mascots and statues - yep, that'll help.
