We are embracing our unique Spanish Heratige, after all it was a Spaniard that first set foot in the great state, Hernando Desoto, and that legacy has been passed down through the years. The current Standard bearer is Jose Valdez IV, who is a regular at every Ole Miss sporting event.

OK, something has always bothered me about "Ole" Miss. Ole is a Spanish word that has nothing to do with our southern dialect changing the pronunciation of the word "old". The correct use of the word "OLE" (as spelled at Ole Miss) should actually be OL'. Such as, "Hey Billybob, how's that ol' gal at the honkytonk overyonder been treatin' ya?" See, you take the "d" out & replace it with an apostrophe....not an "e".
Is there a story behind why it's called OLE Miss? Or is the misuse/misspelling of Ol' just due to the sheer stupidity of the inbreds at the university who came up with the name? Just seems funny to have an institution of higher education misspell their name
Because we make our own rules, dammit (see, no 'n' in damn)
