This is #### funny from FGF!


Apr 15, 2019, 10:59 PM

Gamecock football started on Christmas eve in Charleston 1892 against Furman. That was the first game. We got our first win in year 3 on November 2, 1895. Beat Clemson for the first time in 1896 in which case they went on a run and won the next 7 in a row....It may just be me, but that's a long #### time to be getting start3d on winning a championship. I think our battery maybe be dead

Weren't they the Panthers at the start ?
I can't imagine changing from a fearsome cat as your mascot to an animal that is frantic , used for food and eats out of it's own scat .

It's not just a modern dilemma apparently , they've been making poor decisions as an institution since Benjamin Harrison was president .

They were the Jaguars

But your point is well taken. Why drop that name to become a chicken?

The official reason for the name change was that they did it to honor General Thomas Sumter who was known as the "Carolina Gamecock" because of his fighting style.

I think it had more to do with what their supporters did on Friday and Saturday nights after they got a few drinks in them.

If I ran UofSuc, I would change the mascot from a chicken to a COUGAR. Sounds way better that chickens.

CofC is the Cougars (originally the Maroons, which has a different meaning on this “bored”), so SCar would have to go with a different cat...maybe the Sylvesters.

Anything they pick will be damaged by the new association with Sackerlina .

Might as well stay with the Dirtpeckers .

If they started in 1892


Apr 16, 2019, 8:28 AM

Wouldn't 1895 be their 4th year?

Don't even try to understand it.

Will turn your brain to mush.

They should change their name to UofSC Palmetto Bugs

Or they could call themselves the #### Roaches. Would fit perfectly with their stadium and they could still use Go ##### as their beloved battle cry.
