Dude, come on. There are hundreds of Rebel flags that still drape the grove. Im not saying yall are racist by any means, but to act like the rebel flag is "arse beating material" in Oxford is insane

They don't have large numbers of these at all.



The vast majority of the Ole Miss fan base, like every SEC fan base, is sidewalkers.

The current flag, ironically, is based on the official confederate flag. The flag that everybody gets upset about in 2014 was the "battle flag" (the official flag looked too similar to their opponent's).

Ole Miss does not have a big fanbase like a lot of other SEC schools. Sure, there are some sidewalkers, but if you walk around the grove and ask everybody who owns the tents that are set up where they went to school, I promise a VAST majority went to Ole Miss.

I love how disallowing symbols of racial oppression is due to political correctness. Morons.

Not in a few years. Think this stuff was happening while I was there, and I didn't like it then, either.

The school stirred up a lot of the support behind the purple and gold confed flag by giving it attention. Before all the stories on it very few tailgates were flying them, After the crying about them they were all over campus.

FWIW I think the flag has a cool look with the purple and gold so I have one flying in my living room along with a bonnie blue flag.

I don't give a shite what the Germans put on their flag.

And I don't feel like the confederate flag is the same as a nazi swastika flag. Maybe you do, but that's your opinion.

People that attend games are far more likely to have attended the school. This is the same for every school. Ole Miss has a smaller fan base but only 120,000 living alums and a fan base of over 600,000. So about 5 out of 6 Ole Miss fans did not go to school there.
