Seminoles in Limbo?

The NCAA has decided to issue yet another vague, barely enforceable rule. Don't be fooled by the headline. The NCAA is proposing a blanket ban on Indians. In fact, the NCAA rule is worded in such a way that it could apply to any offensive mascot or symbol. It isn't clear from the article, however, who the arbiter of the process is going to be. Is it going to be like so many other PC things where if even one person complains it's deemed offensive? If so, how long until hurricane victims ask the University of Miami to change their name? What about St. Johns who's already changed their name from the Reds to the Red Storm? Given their history it just sounds like a very slight adjustment. Is the Yellow Jacket's a reference to Asian sports coats?

 

Our wonderful PC world has gotten a little silly at times. Some mascots (the Redskins for example) do need to go by the wayside. But, if FSU changes their name for anything but the best of reasons then I will be sadly disappointed.
