This is the result of letting progressives take control of your University. You end up with a land shark mascot...

Please stop interjecting politics into sports.

Politics are ok in sports as long they are right-wing politics. Because that's what daddy taught them growing up.

Poor Ole Miss. Went from a bunch of dippin', truck driving, country baws with a Confederate Soldier as a mascot to straight weird with a case of full blown SJW-AIDS. Ill try to end on a positive note. The "shark" head aint that bad. Hes even got a permanent grimace on his face in preparation of all the losing they expect to do.

Come to think of it, their mascot confusion... rebels, black bears, and sharks is worse than the eagle-tiger-plainsman at this point.

This is what being "Politically Correct" does to you. Just bring back the damn Colonel.

This is like one of those characters you see on Japanese TV who saves Tokyo from the giant lizard with lightning bolts from their eyes and then does karate and ju jit su on the lizard thing. Then they face the camera and strike a pose like they're badasses... This is Japanese TV bad.

Oh and how nice play a rap song where they scream the N-word with a bunch of little kids in the crowd. Did I hear that right? Good lord.

Tony the Landshark is the product of SJWs, political correctnesss, and for righteousness for the sake of change. Bottom line is, if Ole Miss wants to erase its perceived tie to the Old South -Civil War past- than it needs to change its “Rebel” name as well. The Landshark was nothing more than gimic that was started by the defense 6-7 years ago. The defense could have very easily started making a hand gesture- with both hands-mimicking the clawing of a lion or large predatory cat, and we would have a lion head.

To me, that is the most embarrassing part of this whole debacle. It would be one thing to just do a total re-brand based on some traditional or commonly-recognized symbol that unifies the university community or the state of Mississippi. Instead, they threw all their chips in on a fricking flash-in-the-pan nickname that one of their defensive units invented (something that LOTS of teams do). It would be like if LSU had re-branded their entire athletics brand as "The Bandits" back in the 60s, or if Virginia Tech re-branded as "The Lunch Pails." The whole situation reeks of insecurity, division, lack of leadership, lack of a unified community, and an utter failure to preserve tradition and identity.

Oh my gosh. There are no words to describe how low this brand has sunk. Yes, Ole Miss is a brand and it has hit the bottom of the Marianas Trench. Cue the music, Colonel Reb is cryin....Change the colors, change the fight song, change everything because this is worse than the worst high school in the worst league in the worst state in the country. Can't get worse than this. There are octogenarian sports leagues playing dominoes that have more clarity and sincerity than this once honorable icon. Perhaps I should tell you what I really think?

I guess they will enter the stadium to the song "Fins" by Jimmy Buffett.
