Hilarious! "The Rebels are about to have the coolest mascot in all of college football."

Read the comments under the blog. The blogger compared Bryant Denny Stadium to the Death Star and one guy comments "Does this mean we will get to see Bryant Denny explode?"

For the love of the Almighty. Let's please stop all this Star Wars horsecrap. Unless you have pointy ears or say "nanoo, nanoo" as a hello to people- this isn't remotely entertaining.
Keep it up and the only athletes we will be able to attract are chess champions.
done

You can make jokes about it all you want, but Star Wars isn't one of the most beloved, highest grossing and mass marketed movie franchises in the world because only nerds watch it. Star Wars is very main stream. Most kids have seen the films. Even the ones we recruit. You seriously think this would turn someone away? Thats ludicrous.

Props for the MORK AND MINDY reference though. Loved that show.

Sure, someone might feed you some Cajun deliciousness, but you are just as likely to be beaten with a stick and have your R2-unit stolen.
Too funny.

If the mascot selected was a Star Wars character, the university would have to get a license from owners of the trade marks to use him and market him...could cost big dollars.
