Ole Miss chancellor asks band to stop playing song over South chant - ESPN
They might as well change their nickname.

If I were running a football program at a school with the racial history that Ole Miss does, and I had Colonel Rebel running around on the sidelines, and I had a bunch of guys waving Confederate flags and chanting crap like "the south will rise again," and I knew that I depended on recruiting young black kids to come play for my school, then I'd do everything possible to shut the rednecks up at the football games. This is just pragmatism.
The chancellor is, no doubt, a politically correct, latte sipping, global warming fighting, smug, intellectual, Azz. I am so sick of these people running around fighting these goofy causes. They do it to bring attention to themselves, and often to as a resume filler to get a higher paying job at another institution. Well, all I have to say is that the Hotty Totty song and the starched shirts and bow ties are offensive to me. Now there's Change I can Believe in that the moron can work on for a year or two.
Huh... I wasn't aware that Ole Miss had trouble recruiting young black men ? I prefer to refer to them as "young men"........... I know how stereotypical of me. You are the reason for the banning of songs and why 'pragmatism" is even needed. Think on it a minute, it will come to you.
I believe that the "chant" is more of a sign that people have moved on than people stuck in the past.
