But LSU named their Tigers, objectively speaking, after Civil War reasons.

We did not. "We fight like Tigers" is not an issue someone will protest for obvious reasons. So quit trying to stir this up.

It only took 121 years for someone to be offended. How do we know which Tigers the Memphis students were referring to???

Fact is someone has gone out of their way to be offended.

Reality is OUR school colors were chosen as part of a way of healing old wounds and to represent an united the north and south together. How long before someone is offended that we have Grey as part of our colors and ask that it be changed?

That is a legit question. One that I would be worried about, except that the University powers have almost completely done away with Grey anyway, in favor of black and/or white......how's that for irony?
