Give me a recognizable mascot

[Jacob81]

The pepper is almost as dumb as the hilltopper. UNT is the Mean Green and have an Eagle, Tulane is the Green Wave and have a Pelican, MTSU Blue Raiders have a horse, Miami Hurricanes have a pelican also... Can we be the Louisiana Ragin Cajuns and have a angry looking crawfish as our mascot. It would have character, be intimadating, and it's RED too. The only bad thing I can see is mistaking it for a Lobster. But if you can't put Ragin Cajuns with crawfish we don't want to associate with you anyway, HAHAHA. I mean really, I'm a huge cajun fan and when I see the pepper running around I think, I must be the only person who knows what the hell that thing is. It looks nothing like a pepper, and what is tough about a pepper anyway. This is football not cooking. Maybe that's our whole problem we're to soft all the way around. Stop thinking about how good we cook and go hit somebody!!!!!!

Yeh, Your dog reminds me of Tennessee's mascot and their the volunteers, another good example.

Miami Hurricanes have a pelican also...

I like your ideas and HotBoudin's, but the Miami Pelican Ibis doesn't bother me, they are all the way in Florida.

The one I really like is the BullGator.

UL has had a BullGator habitat ( worth millions, priceless really ) on campus since the founding of the school.

It's a CATAHOULA.

You know, the STATE DOG of Louisiana.

We are the UNIVERSITY OF LOUISIANA.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say, The world thinks crawfish=Louisiana. Most people including myself don't even know they have state dogs. Sorry I'm sticking with Crawfish.

P.S. do you have any idea what kind of dog Tennessee's mascot is?

P.S.S. and like I said a Crawfish is already red. A catahoula just doesn't scream Ragin cajun pride to me.

I like the bullgator idea. It needs to be BULLgator though, not just gator that's not original.

P.S. We tried the crawfish before in the 80's. Didn't work.

I didn't know that could you go a little in depth on that or tell me where I can read about it. I thought it was a great idea. It can't be worse than a pepper.

I'm sorry, what I meant by the Miami Hurricanes having a Pelican as a mascot had nothing to do with the location of the school. What I meant with those school are that they are examples of school who have a mascot different than their names, that's all. What does a bird have to do with a hurricane, or an eagle with mean green, or a pelican with green wave, see what I'm saying. We could be the Ragin Cajuns and have a crawfish instead of "what is that thing" pepper.

I thought it was Duke from the Beverly Hillbillies
