Admiral Ackbar Mounting Glorious Campaign To Become New Ole Miss Mascot


It's true that colleges occasionally become dissatisfied with their mascots and swap them out for a new one. Ordinarily, schools go straight for another conventional college mascot - but could Admiral Ackbar, the squid-like Star Wars character, be poised to become the new mascot of Ole Miss?

The University of Mississippi - the school with a slaveowning plantation owner as its mascot. Will the undergraduates of Dixie cast off offensiveness for absurdity? Is a Rebel Alliance admiral a match for a Confederate colonel? Would the Millennium Falcon defeat the Merrimac in a battle?
