In and from all of the bedlam coming from a new name,

Although some of this is repetitive, I just wanted to encapsulate some thoughts regarding a change of the name from "Braves" to "Brave" and use of a gargoyle as a Mascot, claiming it is unique (and yes, I did fill out the survey, I just think it is useul to use this forum as we all know many relevant people view it, whether certain people care about what others think is a whole other story).
  1. A gargoyle has nothing to do with being brave or anyone who is.
  2. A gargoyle is not unique, Univ of Chicago has it, and DePaul Blue Demons and St. Louis Bilikens are similar.
  3. Why change the name when the NCAA decided years ago BU can stay the Braves, just no Native-American imagery?
  4. After all of these years, who/why a change?
  5. Attempting to tie a gargoyle to the name "Brave" will get BU laughed at.
  6. Since the logo was changed to use a shield, isn't it obvious if you change the name to "Brave," then just use a knight or warrior (Celtic, medieval, take your pick, and a coat of arms to it with multiple images or color patterns).
  7. The survey they had some folks take was obviously structured so they could create any results they wanted from it.
  8. The intro video to the survey was very leading as to what they wanted, which was not good at many levels.
