Is there ANY chance that they end of going with no mascot? No offense, but those renderings are pretty terrible. Black bear is the best of the lot though...

He's going to be wearing a fricking tie in the Grove regardless which one we choose. What a shite load of frick. Only fricking goats wear ties in the Grove. I mean this is common knowledge.

If we can't have Colonel....then I say leave it with no mascot.

Feel bad? Why? Anyone who gets so worked up, good or bad, over a mascot is a fricking moron.

You can "feel bad" for me all you want, I suppose. But know that I really don't give a shite who or what ends up as our mascot. I really don't, and I really don't get what all of the fuss is about.



I agree. If you boil it down, people are just getting upset by which cartoon character will represent them. It doesn't matter.

You just need to pick out an absurd mascot and play a miracle game to get people to accept it.

I think they should just put legs on the 2003 SEC champ banner.

Remember, we were the flood for a couple of decades before we changed to the Rebels. It's not like we've been the Rebs forever.


We were informally know as "The Red and Blue", prior to 1930. We were known as "The Flood" from 1930-1935. The name was unpopular and never caught on (we were very seldom referred to as the 'Flood" even in the newspapers) The name was changed to "Rebels" in 1936. This was chosen after several names (approved by alumni and students) were sent to 22 sportswriters across the South to vote. Of the 22 sportswriters, 17 voted for "Rebels". A judge from Vicksburg is credited with suggesting the "Rebels" name.
It also should be noted that a large number of students and alumni DID NOT WANT a team name, as they thought the name "Ole Miss" was in itself unique enough.
It's also interesting that on the list of names sent to the sportswriters to choose from was.."Massahs" (Old South version of "Masters")
Thank God that wasn't selected.

I like the Land shark... and it would make Landshark beer sales skyrocket...

Jimmy Buffet is from Mississippi and Land Shark is his beer... It is perfect...
Better that a frickin brown black bear or guy from blueman group

Why change the moscot? Seriously.

Next, Rebels name will have to change along with Ole Miss. Then Mississippi will have to change its name. It will never end.

I think many of the Ole Miss fans who post on this board, post here because they have the same attitude as most LSU fans who post here. We are all a bunch of tongue in cheek drunks and posting on some of those other boards are like watching paint dry...no fun!


Well said. The SEC Rant is the best pan-SEC board I've ever seen. There are a few retards on here (normally the people I shout at), but most posters here are fine by me.

Pure conjecture brought about by paranoid delusion. It wouldn't surprise me, but it also wouldn't make me cower in fear or bitch about it on a message board.

The "gray man" looks a little too much like Jay Leno....

Seriously- this is dumb. What in the hell does a mannequin, a bear, or a "landshark" (WHATEVER THE HELL THAT IS) have to do with the Ole Miss "Rebels"????

Getting forced to be lame in the quest for PC is just too much for my brain to handle....Lord help us all.
