The old mascot of the University of Mississippi was one "Colonel Reb", a reference to the old Confederate Army. The university recently provisionally abandoned the mascot, and a new search is underway. One originally parodic suggestion that's been gaining real steam is, amazingly enough, Admiral Ackbar, leader of the Rebel Alliance from Star Wars. Like Ilya Somin, I heartily approve.
Also, I thought long and hard about this title. I hope it works.

I think the basketball teams would have to play a full-court trapping defense.
I also approve.
Did you ever see this brilliant mockumentary on the "Battle of Hoth," done in the style of Ken Burns' Civil War series?

Maybe a bit overacted, but funny.
