NCAA Rejects ILLINI Appeal!
I mean come on! I strongly despise these guys (OK, I hate them). What gives? The NCAA will allow us to keep our names (ILLINI and Fighting ILLNI) but we are still on the 'list' of banned schools which are prohibited from hosting NCAA postseason events.
Not that this really matters much. At least we still get to keep our good name.
The NCAA governing body still claims that the Chief is a 'hostile and abusive' image of American Indians. Bite me - this goes back to 1926. Can you say tradition? Hey Bernie (Bernard Franklin of the NCAA), get a frickin' life man!
