Indiana University, for example, has several campuses and each campus has athletic teams and they're not even all considered to be the Hoosiers. Consider IUPUI or Fort Wayne. University of Texas is another example, where you have UTSA and UTEP.

Are you asking about why other schools within a university system have athletic teams, or are you concerned that other schools have athletic teams not named the same as the main campus?

FWIW, my local school district has every school (including kindergarten, which is pretty cool) in the same colors and the same mascot. But we only have three schools total (Elementary, Middle and HS) so it's a pretty simple formula It works really well and kids love the fact that as a 6th grade basketball player they are a Spartan like the bad-ass high school ballers.
