Oh wow! I just checked out the schools website and saw that they're having a contest for the new mascot. I'm glad we at least got to keep calling ourselves the Fighting Illini after the school retired Chief Illiniwek. I'm not sure how I would feel about having to change the team name all together.
There were, however, some funny Facebook groups to suggest a new mascot after the Chief was retired. My favorites were "Drinkin' Lincoln" and the "Illini Dinosaurs".
