They are working hard to bury that history. Almost as hard as Wayne Atcheson claiming previously unclaimed Bama National Titles in the 1980s.

If you had bothered to read the other links you would see this is old wives tale that has been told with NO BASIS IN REALITY. Keep on believing that the University became synonymous the "Ole Miss" nickname in 1908 because of something that had last happened in the 1860's.
