The nickname is tied to the Charlotte region historically after General Cornwallis called Charlotte a "Hornet's Nest" and at that time we had neither the minor league football of the 1970's Charlotte Hornets or the NBA team of the same name.

If it happened today?

Copperheads.


Wooded wetlands around campus are full of them.

Only TWO snake mascots. FAMU (Rattlers) and Coker (Cobras).
