if i was an alumnus i'd be voting "I can accept this mascot" for the bear. but i wouldn't "love" any of them.

it has to suck to go through this process for the committee. looks like they did a ton of work and will be damned in a lot of cases.

they could open with the old Saturday Night Live skits with the shark knocking on the apartment door.

1: Grove attire? You've got to be shitting me! That's priceless!
2: So is that a gray Barney the dinosoar or a shark?

Or are they just going with Brown Bears to be PC?

These are worse(better) than I could have ever hoped for.

member. Absolutely horrendous - surely they will go with the bear (although it makes absolutely no sense).<div>

1. The concept of the Land Shark was developed by an OM student athlete? Give me a break. Ever heard of Saturday Night Live?

2. The mascot they should have taken (of the 11) was the River Boat Captain. Related to Mississippi and Colonel Reb could have evolved into Captain Reb. Same character, but no longer a plantation owner.

It looks like some grey blob, nothingness, mannequinesque. Its just stupid. Better than a teletubby, but not by much.

I like the colonel reb tie in with the plantation hat. Someone will be crying about that before too long.

These are all fails. To think of how many illiterates could have been provided help with the money wasted on this inanity.

They should have just gone with the "Red and Blue." Wasn't Lehigh or someone up east once known as the Brown and White? Red and Blue would be much less gay than the three choices, they could have done away with Rebels totally (which is where all this is headed) and they could have still had a *** mascot running around in grove attire with a pole in one hand and pointing to the distance with the other...perhaps back to days of cotton. Dude looks like John C Fremont, the "Pathfinder." That's it, they should be called the "Pathfinders." Fits with their delusional image of leading the state into the 21st century.

The Toronto Raptor + a dorsal fin
A black bear that looks strangely like the Montana Grizzly

(but has to be the most palatable one out of the three-please correct me if I'm wrong, Reb fans)

and the Washington Wizzards mascot's frattier cousin.

The mascot should be a guy in a 3 piece suit with a brief case under an arm chasing an ambulance.

1. Athletic bear has cankles.
2. The flag waving land shart has flood pants
3. Two of the land sharts have faggy red pants, awful.
4. Two of the bears have Houston Nutt style dipshit hats.
5. All of the land sharts have that smile that is too large and fake looking, (to the point where if I look at it for a few seconds I have to look away because it makes me uncomfortable)I prefer a natural shark smile.
6. It looks like all three of the grey men got their left hands caught in a PTO shaft.
7. The bearsare the equivalent to our walking bully. Miserable.

Should've come out a year ago and said, "We're changing the mascot. It's a bear. ... ... Colonel who?"

This reminds of that fairly recent (short-lived?) comedy about a community college. Think this show had Chevy Chase in it?

They had an episode about choosing a mascot. Political correctness ruled the whole process. They ended up with a less muscular version of this Hotty Toddy drawing. They idea was it was raceless, neither male nor female, and non-threatening.

Another case of life immitates art.

I'm still going with my statement that the plan has always been for a bear and that the selection will be a bear.
