We asked and HottyToddy.com Twitter followers responded—more than half are in favor of the new look of the Ole Miss mascot, Tony the Landshark.
Twitter ignited in conversation when Tony made his debut Aug. 11 at the Meet the Rebels event at the Manning Center. Opinions on the look of the new mascot varied.
From good:
To bad:
To worse:
Regardless of the various opinions, the Ole Miss football team will take the field Sept. 1 vs. Texas Tech in Houston as the Landsharks.

I saw a headline on Yahoo News that called Ole Miss’s new mascot as “bizarre.”

You said “ Ole miss will take the field against Texas Tech as the Landsharks”. That is incorrect. They will take the field as the Rebels. Their pathetic mascot will be the Landshark. But they will be the Rebels.
