Blu and Geoff enter fine offseason form with a guest appearance from our favorite sports law professor to discuss an anti-climatic legal action from the state of West Virginia, efforts to revive the IU Bison mascot, the history of the Bison, and a very long sidetrack into Greek mythology, including asking if the Minotaur can block, Geoff forgetting Polyphemus has a name, building a defensive line out of mythological figures, and maybe the meanest thing Blu has ever said about Pete Carroll (Jason is a shitty person and we are not afraid to say it).Sourceshttps://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2025/03/18/bring-back-the-bison-could-ius-long-lost-mascot-make-a-return/77419159007/https://www.indystar.com/picture-gallery/sports/college/indiana/2025/03/18/the-iu-bison-mascot-through-the-years/82287962007/https://www.idsnews.com/article/2024/12/iu-bison-mascot-football-returnhttps://www.idsnews.com/article/2024/03/indiana-hoosiers-mascots-bring-back-bison-bloomington#:~:text=After%20over%2040%20years%20of,the%20official%20mascot%20in%201965.Website: ⁠https://feedyourmascot.squarespace.com⁠Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/feedyourmascot.bsky.socialInstagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/feedyourmascot/⁠Threads: @feedyourmascot Schrodinger's social network (Twitter): ⁠https://twitter.com/feedyourmascot/⁠ Copyright 2025 Feed Your Mascot LLC
