Prime's bringing in a transfer buffalo from Howard University....

Prime told Ralphie he wasn't big enough, fast enough, furry enough or horny (!?) enough.... probably because Ralphie is a bison and not a buffalo!... he identifies as TransBovidae... Prime Time thinks it would be best if he go roam the sidelines at another Buffalo school like N. Dakota St. or Bucknell.... or maybe IU.

The whole family is upset about it but we all agree that he's a young buff who'll land on four hooves...

His INDIANA cousins would be happy to have him here... We think we have the NIL juice to lure him here...

He's a little on the small side but after he's exposed to the Tom Allen training table we're certain we can bulk him up... All he needs is a Bison size enclosure where he can safely hang out on game days...

We've spoken directly with him and he says he's tired of the running across the field live gig with 8 freshmen trying to drag him around... He's asking for a pretaped "virtual" run on only in his next contract...

He would be great to IUFB and could be the very thing to get IU back to leading the B1G.

Is one a Buffalo and one a Bison? Is there a difference?

Perhaps there is someone here that is a decades long fan of plains-roaming animals with inside information from being very close to the species. Someone who unlike anyone else, is here to talk big stinky critters.

He's actually an American Bison but he's not offended to be called a Buffalo by most of the country...

Memorial Stadium is the home where buffalo should roam. Bring back the Bison and the intro on the big screen; always pumped for IU football after watching that video of the bison running through campus.

A-men!

A Fightin' Hoosier Bison is the next step to making IU an actual football program

Ralphie heard there was a good chance of Prime making a position switch... from on the field mascot to dining hall bison burgers. Bison burgers would obviously be permanent.

There is a difference: "Buffalo" are native to Africa & Asia(Water Buffalo, for example), while Bison are native to North America & Europe. So, Colorado named themselves the Buffalos when they meant Bison. Of course, who cares, right? The thing is, they really aren't even particularly similar species, so how the names became interchangeable is...as weird as caring about differentiating between the two.

Any news on the commitment of a Bison coming to IU yet?lol I would love IU to have one that romped on the field and there is an easy marketing for Bisons so it would help the NIL.
