I hope you mean, who could tell he would be southern?

Most of the real southerners that would have a rebel flag on their wall are either southern frat boy or really, really redneck. Plus, he has no accent.

I think the point is to make him look like he's from the Bible belt, but I think the rebel flag thing is unneccessary and pretty uncommon... the purity pledge thing is pretty close to true, and definitely something a small Bible study group would do. They need to have his Bible study praying for Calvin together or something...

Anyway, sorry, just bothers me when people stereotype southerners wrong, and this show is pretty "on" in other ways.
