Guys, No problem with changing the mascot, but as I watched this issue develope, there has been a massive following to change the image to 'Admiral Ackbar'. However, based on some of the images I am seeing pop-up on the internet, all you are doing is changing a 'white man with a moustache' to a 'fish-headed' alien. If you apply just a little comparative analysis to the prevailing flood of images, simple logic shows Col. Reb and Ackbar both dressed in the same uniform along with the 'same' cane in hand. There is nothing NEW here representing Ole Miss... It's real easy to forge 'Colonel Catfish' out of this image... I just don't think that ya wanna go there... If you are going to pick a new mascot, at least try to be novel and original. I also think tying Ole Miss to a 'Hollywood' image does not project the academic or athletic character of the University as a whole. Hoddy Toddy, J.Pelezo, Ole Miss '72
