from the Urban Dictionary:

landshark

noun - someone who bites on or uses a lot of teeth while administering oral sex to their partner.

Congrats on your new mascot

Land Shark is the dumbest mascot I have ever heard of. In a few years Ole Miss will realize this and have another vote for a mascot.



We could name our team after menstrual cycles like Alabama

I think the mascot change should have been saved until OM is coming out from or after the sanctions are announced. I could see it being used as a recruiting ploy to come play for a new OM program that has turned a new leaf.

If you're gonna have a dog as an on-field mascot, at least choose a mean and intimidating dog not Lassie.

OM 'retired' Colonel Reb in 2003 but still owns and profits from the sale of trademarked Col Reb stuff.

Its literally connected to Tony Fein. U.S. Army Veteran who served in Iraq. A greater American than you'll ever be BurgTiger.

If OM really changed the mascot then that is dumb as shite.

Landshark was from an old Saturday Night Live comedy skit, back when SNL was pretty good. Back in the Belushi, Chase, Akroyd days.



“Land shark” is a historical reference for someone who swindled sailors out of their money when they went ashore in a port of call. As in “at sea beware of the sea sharks but on land watch out for the land sharks”.

At least a crimson tide is a real thing, and an elephant is a real thing. All sharks live in water, there is no such thing as a land shark. This was used to describe the Ole Miss defense when it was decent, I guess. Now it is a joke, that can't even stop Bama' 6th string running back, with 3rd and 4th teamers blocking for him. I give it four years tops before the pc idiots realize their mistake and fix it.

I personally think the mascot should be an empty vault... because you guys will be short 45 million or so over the next 3 years from bowl sanctions and are morally bankrupt.

I liked it. I think it should stay. Frick all the dumbarses who moan and bitch to have the Conf. Flag and the Col. back. Most of those are non OM alums by the way.

Landsharks is pretty cool for a good defense. Steelers didn't change their name to steel curtain. Our current defense is a bunch of non tackling pusses, they don't deserve the landshark title.

Are you talking about "red tide"? You know that's just algae right?
