I would be unhappy if there was a rule that your color scheme had to match your team name's colors. Tan and white boy am I excited

I'm pretty sure this would make like 95% of college teams wear some shade of brown. Although it might be worth it just to see what Hawaii would have to wear.

Syracuse, Duke, Stanford, and North Texas would also stay the same.

So would a bunch of Ivy League schools (Cornell, Brown, Dartmouth, and Harvard). Brown wouldn't change their colors because their teams are named after the color, but because brown bears are, in fact, brown.

The mascot Albert was originally a live gator back in the 1950s.

But gators in Florida are under pretty strict protection now. I don't think they could keep one as a live mascot anymore, or maybe they just wouldn't want to.

Actual gators are pretty scary and they're everywhere in Florida. There was a story a while back about some stupid runner taking her shoes off and putting her feet in the water of a canal or lake. All they found were her shoes because a gator grabbed her and drug her into the water lol.

So it turns out the homeless kid from Baylor was offered NCAA-approved housing and turned it down to go live elsewhere and basically Baylor's compliance department told him he was making a mistake and he ignored them. Because of that the NCAA has ruled him permanently ineligible.

Regardless of individual thoughts on the NCAA we live in an age where even they bow to public pressure so you know when they double down and rule a kid out like this that he hosed up and that's pretty much exactly what happened. Baylor gave him housing, told him what would happen if he went somewhere else, and the kid did it anyway.

Yeah it owns.

I just can't wrap my head around people who swim in canals and lakes, or people who spend time around the edge of those bodies of water. I remember being a little kid and having it beaten into my brain that you just don't do that in Florida. Our dog almost got eaten when she sat on the edge of a canal barking at an alligator :ohdear:

When I used to visit my dad he lived in a subdivision with a man-made pond/lake and there were several gators that would just hang out in the streets like they owned the place. They are the epitome of :colbert: in terms of territory.

Alligators in Florida are bad, but Saltwater Crocodiles in Australia are so much worse. There are stories of big bulls flipping boats and coming way up on shore to get at people. In Darwin they build artificial beaches since Salties can live in the ocean and there are more of them up that way than people. It is truly spectacular to watch these huge like 17' bastard get the majority of his body straight up out of the water with no warning right next to you. Not to be hosed with.
