I always wondered why San Diego St. went with that nickname when the Aztecs were nowhere near San Diego

I was just thinking this, how is Florida State racist/insensitive but San Diego State isn't?
Florida State has the blessing of the Seminole Tribe of Florida brah. That's why they still use the name and imagery.

Just looked it up. They used to be purple and gold and the Wompus Cats. Students voted to rename the team and get new colors and chose red and black and the Aztecs. They felt the terminology was more representative of the southwest image than Wompus Cats or the 2nd place name Balboans.

honestly... I think both Wompus Cats and Balboans are better than Aztecs if only b/c they are WTF different.

How would those aztecians feel if they knew their sacred drawings were being bastardized on the side of a shitty mountain west team? So disrespectful of a once proud culture.

We didn't kill all of FSU's mascot.
The mascot is however killing all of the Hard Rock's.
