re: Why did Ole Miss cave into relinquishing one of the all time great College logo’s/mascots?

I was a student when that happened.

The tradition existed before I enrolled.

Why do we catch the blame for continuing a tradition we didn't start? Why is it entirely our fault? We didn't come up with it or make it popular? It was popular when we got on campus.

Furthermore, when you threaten college kids at a known party school to attempt to coerce them from doing something, what do you think they're going to do? Comply? lolz

I graduated in 1991. We still waved Rebel flags, er, stirred our whiskey with the sticks and chanted "Play DIXIE" to the band until they did again, but we NEVER yelled TSWRA. Never. So, I blame you and your's.
