re: How many have lost the rah-rah for your alma mater due to leftist politics?

Don't have an 'alma mater' but I was an LSU fan before I even knew what an LSU fan was.
The last year of their "woke" bullshite pushed me away. When they lit up that beautiful stadium with BLM Propaganda and the criminal George Floyd's name, that was it.
The last game I watched was the Championship against Clemson. That was a good one to hang my hat on. Didn't watch a single game aside from that in 2020. Didn't follow recruiting. Was done with the NFL before that after the Saints playoff "no-call". Drew Knees lost every bit of respect I had for him when he apologized to the mob and then put the rapist Jacob Blake's name on his practice helmet. Won't watch LSU or Saints or any college or pro ball this year either.
Long story short, I accomplished more quality fishing and family time in the past 12 months than any other year since I was still in high school. And my favorite NFL QB of all time is now Brett Favre.
I'm done with organized sports above the HS level. Period. Well, except for fishing since that's still a pretty popular sport on the tours.

Interesting. How do you think you would have felt about such things in, say, 1963? Do you think it was "leftist politics" that insisted on treating James Meredith like the human taxpaying Mississippian that he was? Or was it "rightist" politics" that fought the National Guard in the streets of Oxford so that he couldn't attend
Never heard about the James Meredith incident. (Sarc). Talk about beating a dead horse.

My love for Ole Miss has nothing to do with that. Does your love for Texas harken back to the Indian wars or the slave days? No? Then why would you think such things about me? My love for Ole Miss was based on the people at Ole Miss. Now, it's just a bunch of Marxist faculty and leftist students.

I certainly have. I love Ole Miss but the place is less and less the Ole Miss that I love. I watch sports with much less allegiance and interest than I used to. How many of you feel the same? It would be nice to also know the school you support.
How would you like to be a Mizzou fan? Forget the fact that the university is somewhat a failed sports program, now add in Johnathan Butler and shite swastikas, Melissa Glick, a football team that was threatening to boycott their games if the administration didn’t bow to their demands. Yeah, I’ve not really followed the sports teams for 6 years.

No stellar than any other school in the south. The administration just gave in to the mob over and over.

University of the South, Sewanee Tennessee. The board of trustees cowered and installed a black vice-chancellor (head of the school—the chancellor is always the episcopal bishop of TN). It was “wokeness” on steroids. Then, someone (or some people) defaced the vice-chancellor residence on campus with some racial statements, and threats. Now, it’s persecution of everyone and woke apologist bullshite nonstop about healing a university that “must come to grips with its past.” Generic statements like that don’t accomplish sh!t. What exactly are 18-22 year olds going to fix from 100 years ago? All the same stupid feelings bullshite.

I’ll put it this way: if they drop Ole Miss and/or Rebels I’m basically done giving all that much of a shite about our sports, and boy do I love getting shite hammered in the Grove and left field.

Trump sure got a massive standing ovation at the LSU Bama game. CBS did all they could to ignore it, but all of the leftist academics and administrators failed in their brain washing efforts that day.
Time to push back.

When the Jon Bel Edwards board decided to shite on Middleton, that was the last straw. Not a single person on that board has done anything remotely noteworthy or difficult in their life.
I can only imagine that Edwards was a worthless frick as a company commander and probably cheated his way through Ranger School.

LSU will never get another dime of my money. I donated every year up until about 3 years ago. I could not care less if they have to shut down major programs because of lack of funding.

Big Scrub it was Democrats that was behind the hate back in 63 just like it’s Democrats behind the hate now. Some things never change
