Since 80% of the attendees to our games wear white tennis shoes, levi jeans, Maroon is all that matters t shirts, are dragging 3 kids, a diaper changing bag and a pudgy wife around. Real talk.

Choctaws. I believe Oktibbeha is a Choctaw word. Also the proximity to the Choctaw tribe in Philadelphia.

Also, while we are on the topic. Can we change the name of the town? To bad it isn't West Point. Given our history.

Timbers

Since Starkville was once Boardtown. Or - the lumber jacks or loggers, which is a tip of the hat to the reference made by the Oregon State board during Super Regionals.

Think about the possibilities with this one. Basketball on the hardwood; bringing the wood in football, etc.

Rebel Rednecks

That way ESPN will always be at least 50% right whether they say Rebel Black Bears or Rebel Rednecks...would also allow for our very own walk-on alumni

Maroons for nickname. Have a cow as the mascot. Play to the stereotype. Who gives a **** what people say.

Cato the Elder provides much for us to parody.

"I shall explain what I found out in Athens Oxford about these Greeks Rebels, and demonstrate what advantage there may be in looking into their writings NAFOOM (while not taking them too seriously). They are a worthless and unruly tribe. Take this as a prophecy: when those folk give us their writings 'cruitin' championships they will corrupt everything."
