New IU Mascot Contender: Howie Hoosier

Things are really gearing up for the football season at Indiana University, but the Hoosiers face yet another year without a recognizable mascot.  Enter Howie Hoosier!  Howie is a Buffalo with an attitude.  Many people know that the state of Indiana sports a Buffalo on its state seal, and Howie is an IU branded Buffalo who is ready to rock for the Hoosiers!

 

...unless you rather stick with the Hillbilly that looks a lot like Herbie Husker?

Check Howie out and vote for him at HoosierMascot.org

Friend him here on facebook!

Go Hoosiers!

Hm.

I dunno. There hasn’t been an in-the-wild buffalo in Indiana for, what… in the neighborhood to 150 years? You might as well use a sabertooth tiger as a mascot, amiright?

I see great things in baseball. It's our game - the American game. It will take our people out-of-doors, fill them with oxygen, give them a larger physical stoicism. Tend to relieve us from being a nervous, dyspeptic set. Repair these losses, and be a blessing to us. ~Walt Whitman

A sabertooth tiger. Now we are getting somewhere.

I have warmed to the idea of a bison mascot if done well.

I love me some buffalo

But he’s a bit too much Purdue-Pete-with-fur.
