Troy

Troy State.

Auburn, full of class. Still the ugly step sister

Oxford, hand prints all over dat azz.

Auburn. Yet another growing and prospering Southern metropolitan area anchored to an economic development-oriented university and leaving third-world Oxford with its lowly ranked “flagship” university far, far behind. Will Mississippi residents put up with this situation forever?

Auburn, a/k/a Southern Cow, is a little brother cow college. Always has been, and always will be.

Yawn. Since you are good with #s, KF, look at Auburn University’s growth for the past 20years. Compare it to Alabama, MS Ole Miss.

Ed Oregon/LSU.

LandShark is an appropriate mascot. They look like fish out of water lately.

Even The Barn can see how silly the Landshark mascot is and will be for Ole Piss. I know they think they are all high class & better than everybody else, but damn!! They'll be changing the mascot to something else in a few years once they've had enough of the mocking. Whatever happen to that Admiral Akbar fella?

Troy lol.

Why "Landsharks?" No such thing. Why not just "Shark?" Miami isn't the "Earth Dolphins" - just Dolphins. Ole Miss Dirt-Fish.

If you want a laugh check the urban dictionary for "land shark"

Hotty Toddy, Gosh A-mighty (sacrilege), who the hell (profanity) are we? It's obvious they ain't real sure since they're reinventing about every three years.

10:44,

Look at Lafayette County, Mississippi versus Lee County, Alabama, which were very similar fifty years ago, and compare them to today. Who has had significantly higher per capita income growth, population growth, non-government investment capital, and a higher percentage of jobs in professional, scientific, and management industries? Guess which community makes everybody’s quality of life list.

Guess who has the higher crime rates, and higher percentage of its employees working in government jobs.

Guess which locale’s university started out as the East Alabama Male College in a poverty-ridden area known as the Black Belt and has been listed as one of the top fifty public universities for the past twenty years.

What the hell has Ole Miss been doing for the past fifty years? Why do you people in Mississippi put up with this?

While you're at the UD site 8:38, check out "bulldog".

Why do so many people care about another school's mascot? Get a life

Ole Miss tries to do something different and steps into another embarrassment. Great satire.

According to Wikipedia, the landshark began as an SNL skit about a creature that stalks young single women.

Sounds about right.

Lmao at the urban dictionary definitions for land shark and bulldog.
Thanks for that. If given choices of definitions, I would not have guessed correctly.

According to the internet 'Landshark' is the name of a sex act. You can look up the details. I guess that explains why the students voted for it. Certainly the bear was lame. From day #1 the bear was lame. The lamest part was they had an identity and a history all their own that threw it away to try to be politically correct. I don't understand the timing of this. With major probation around the corner there is a good chance that it will be several years before they have a decent football team. In the mean time, they break in a brand new mascot and get trounced week after week. Seems to me you would want to wait for the new mascot until these lean years that are most certainly coming are over. Then again, maybe they have a plan. Maybe in 2022 The Colonel will be back. By then Coach O will have been run off and they can bring them both back as a package deal. Oh Happy Day!

Obviously Vitter has psychological issues. Everybody chooses to overlook that fact by deflecting to mascot names, coaches' infidelity issues and recruiting debacles. The man needs to be institutionalized. Is this guy somebody else Archie brought in? And before Kingfish gets a hard-on, both the AD and chancellor at El-Ess-You are in the same boat.

Meanwhile; Lest we overlook our good friend Pitt Panther....From Urban Dictionary.

[PANTHER
Much like the cougar, who seeks out the companionship of younger men...the PANTHER is any woman over 35 who seeks out younger WOMEN. This term is often used by lesbians and bisexual women roaming the clubs.]

And we thought he was just another goofy old white man.

Ole Miss will be forever trying any trick it can muster to shake it's image as the last citadel of the confederacy. Won't work. The rest of the state won't let you.
Black bears? Land sharks? Forget it. Embrace your reality. Try toothless trailer trash. The Triple T. At least the rest of the country can have a good laugh and you already have a flag.
