Was completely unaware that OM had switched mascots from "Colonel Reb" to a "Black Bear". Fired up Google and found a wiki on the topic here.
So the switch happened in 2010? Well how about that. Learned about a blind, African American peanut vendor named Jim Ivy who cheered on the OM football team for sixty years and became something of a campus fixture until his passing in 1955.
Can't help but wonder if Jim Ivy was the inspiration somehow for Dave Chappelle's "Clayton Bigsby" character. Hmm.
Anyway, good on you, OM!!!
Ya'll finally figured out an animal mascot has more market upside than this.
