According to Hornets247:

Our information states that Hornets ownership has inquired about the purchasing this brand from the AFL team that owns it, but the offer to purchase was declined. This has happened at least once, but it may have gone through a couple of negotiation cycles.
Despite the stalled purchase, circumstances can change, and so can offers. This issue is not in a nailed-shut coffin yet.

Thought Benson owned the Voodoo.

Come on Tommy! Keep on trying! This is my ideal name choice. Hope it happens.

I like it. Voodoo and Brass are the only ones I've heard that I've really liked. Pelicans was the only other one at least acceptable to me.

when did he sell the team? back in like 09, right?

Think he got out when the AFL folded for a year.

I'd rather Brass.. Voodoo seems like it's trying to hard. Voodoo is perfect for an AFL team, not a NBA team IMO

Just keep Hornets. I'm so tired of rebranding stuff, I'd rather just keep it as is.

I will never understand why people like Pelicans for a name. It sounds so...weak, for lack of a better term right now.
When thinking of professional teams with avian mascots names like Ravens, Eagles, Hawks come to mind. Pelicans just doesn't belong in that group imo. We may as well be the New Orleans Chickens. And if we're gonna do that, let's just go all the way and be the Chicken & Biscuits.
