trying to copy UH…someone send a cease and desist letter to them…
We took our mascot from them so I often cut them a lot of slack
I feel bad for them having to use “Coug” instead of “Coog”. It just looks very awkward. Almost Canadian, like their school. Does it rhyme with Doug?

It’s a shame that Wazzu is getting relegated. Kind of like them. Very squirrely.
We have a tie to Wazzou:
The choice of a cougar as the university’s mascot can be attributed to John R. Bender, who arrived at the university in 1927 as a volunteer football coach. Bender, the former head coach for the Washington State Cougars, held the animal in high regard and suggested naming the university’s new football team after the animal.
