Conference carousel to start spinning again?

I thought LBSU's mascot was "The Beach"...

I think "the Beach" is how they now refer to their teams. I just read somewhere that the 49er name has been phased out the last 5 years. The mascot itself is now a shark.

Prospector Pete is apparently a symbol of genocide to the LBSU students and administration.

So the San Francisco 49ers are likely to change names before the Redskins, Indians, Chiefs and Braves? That would be something.

LBSU was founded in 1949 - the mascot was intended to commemorate the opening of the university more so than the Forty-Niners a century earlier. Charlotte also calls themselves the 49ers because their university was saved from the chopping block back in 1949.

Hoping LBSU stays the dirtbags on the diamond!
