What would you like him to do? Drop coaching his football team and spend his valuable time lobbying for his favorite political and social injustice? Get a grip dude, not his department.

Reconstruction never ended.



Unfortunately that is true. The eradication of all things associated with the South are on their way to being eliminated from society.

The removal of monuments and the purposed renaming of US Army bases that were named after Confederate generals are all part of this sanitizing. When those bases were built the naming of those bases was done as an act of reconciliation.

Those of us born and raised in the South are really fed up with this crap. Where does it end? Do they eventually go after descendants of Confederates? To the whacko crowd nothing is too radical for them.

Is there anything worse than a self-loathing Southerner? I've yet to find it.


Southerner? That campus is chock full of Yankees. Most students are from out of state and a bulk of them come from north of the Mason-Dixon line.

You may not remember but the Georgia Redcoat Band was originally the Dixie Redcoat Band. A few woke students and faculty objected and the word Dixie was removed. I have distant relatives who were killed in the Revolutionary Wae so I want the name Redcoats removed. My neighbor ha distant relatives who were kicked in the Battle if Little Big Horn by a band of Indians Native Americans, so he wants the word band removed. in the future the group of students who play musical instruments at the Georgia football games will be known as “The”. The announcer in the stadium can simply say “Here Comes The”.

As the descendant of Confederate soldiers and someone born and raised in the South we cannot eradicate the worship of these traitors fast enough. That being said, I don’t have a problem with the term Dixie

The south is different from the rest of the nation and the world. If the south lost all identify then life itself would be bland.

Anytime you give in to these woke bitches they'll find something else to go after. Stand your ground. As much as I dislike Ole Miss, the black bears ain't cutting it. Bring back Colonel Reb.
