Indiana Mascot

During my time and considered a joke.
Miami Hurricanes have an Ibis
USC Trojans have a horse
Alabama Crimson Tide has an elephant
Iowa State Cyclones have a cardinal
UNC Tar Heels have a ram
Auburn Tigers or War Eagles. Tigers is official, I think. Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets or Ramblin’ Wreck.
Well... Screw em... The way to stop that is to completely trample whoever we're playing the same way we did p u in The Bucket Game... Respect is earned not given...
As far as the Colorado mascot goes..., that is the most pathetic excuse of a representative of a Bison to have ever trod the earth...
Watching that makes one almost feel sorry for the silly looking, misgendered, runt they put out there as an unguided missile on game day, while they hope, beyond hope it goes for its treat in the steel corral in the end zone...
Goofiest looking display you ever will see... They (Colorado) certainly shouldn't be caught ever disparaging anyone else's Bison mascot...

why can't iu have a real one? sorry if already explained and i missed it
Don't know that they can't, but that doesn't appear to be part of the plan. I'm sure expense and liability play a role in the decision.
i'm with brad. i don't want a counterfeit one. get a real one or forget it
How are you getting a real one into Assembly Hall, or to wrestling, volleyball, swimming?
Jeremy Gray gave some insight behind the mascot decision when I saw him speak. Engaging kids, $$$ for licensing and the fact that Corso had nothing to put on except a baseball hat when picking IU were the three points I recall him making.
That is the best answer. But unless IU plans to hire people to tend a bison, it will be rented as needed from the place on 46 I suspect. Who knows what the cost is, and of course liability insurance.
I would suspect a game or two during football should get a real bison. Other games just the costume.
Maybe that's a next phase or something special they can do for a big game and see how it is received. The mascot outfit is apparently going to be the bread and butter
we only care about football at this point. get a real one from that farm on 46. give em free advertising
My solution is to have the human mascot on the field along with a Real One outside the stadium inside an enclosure on game day...
Could be done but we may have to wait another couple of years for that...

Ingenuity. Good ole'-fashioned want-to.
USC missing a real marketing opportunity.
If Purdue can fill Mackey with a bunch of big ol' coeds, how hard could it be for us to get a bison into Assembly Hall?
The Bison sucks.
The only place it appears anywhere is on the state seal, and no one knows the difference between a Bison and a Buffalo.
At least it's better than the even stupider cowboy they tried to use as Indiana's mascot in the past.
