Interesting story- thanks for sharing.
I love this historical stuff. Sometimes they have reasons for why they picked the colors that they did- or even that they changed them.

I didn't click the link but for The Citadel the police chief in Charleston was named Paddy Miles. He hired a bunch of The Citadel Men for the Charleston Police Dept and those men were known as "Paddy Miles's Bulldogs". When we began playing sports we became The Citadel Bulldogs.

NCAA DIVISION I MANUAL
20.10.1 Commitments to the Division I Collegiate Model
Bylaws proposed and enacted by member institutions governing the conduct of intercollegiate athletics shall be designed to foster competition in amateur athletics…
20.10.1.2 The Commitment to Amateurism
Member institutions shall conduct their athletics programs…maintaining a line of demarcation between student-athletes who participate in the Collegiate Model and athletes competing in the professional model
At least now I can quit giving the boys a buck every time I pass a guy in a The Citadel shirt.

I don't know what they have to say, It makes no difference anyway, Whatever it is, I'm against it.
No matter what it is or who commenced it, I'm against it!
Your proposition may be good, But let's have one thing understood: Whatever it is, I'm against it.
And even when you've changed it or condensed it, I'm against it!

Maybe when Mercer has been playing football for a few more years we'll remember what their mascot actually is
Beavers? Bruins? whatever... we're playing that team from Georgia

Wofford's mascot apparently arose from its baseball team. There was a local Jack Russell Terrier that would go to games and then chase down opposing runners trying to reach home plate.
Over time, the mascot evolved from a Jack Russell to a Boston Terrier.
