That won’t fly either. The 2 people that care about the mascot don’t want any reference to the Aztecs. They want it to be local. Not Spanish local either.

If they actually acquire a Xolo dog. I am down. A xolo will set you back $2,500 - $4,000.

Well, 'Aztec Jaguar' would be a very good idea... but even mention of that now is severely tainted by the "Zuma" debacle. I think Zuma was technically supposed to be a "Puma" so perhaps a properly fierce looking Jaguar would garner a more positive reception.
I think folks have to accept that a "human" mascot just WILL NOT happen or be accepted.

Muslims consider dogs to be "unclean" so that adds another minority group we would be offending. So just say "no" to "Xolo." Perhaps if we make the Aztec Warrior "trans" we could push him/her/he/she/they/them across the finish line.

But then I cringe and roll my eyes because I know the mob is coming for you. 😂 |

I suspect this opinion piece is no coincidence.
Recall a few weeks back when Carlos Gutierrez, i.e. "Monty", posted on Twitter about how the SDSU Administration (or the SDSU President??) called the authorities to try and prevent Carlos from showing up at a basketball game in his Monty Montezuma Gear?
And now suddenly an SDSU journalism professor is given space in the Way-Left Union Tribune to rehash the mascot issue, and not surprisingly he calls for "literally anything" but the Aztec Warrior? I'd like to see the email/call logs between Adele de la Torre and the UT.

I guess I am “Way Left” and I would rather have no mascot if we can’t have Monty.

Even worse, it wasn't even a basketball game at SDSU's Viejas, the SDSU campus police were used to try prevent Carlos from entering the UNLV owned area in Las Vegas. |

Need to have a vote with the students and alumni voting for four or five. then have a runoff if a majority does not win the first time. Nominees should include Monty, Xolo, the Aztec Warrior, and two others.

Curious as to why SDSU campus police were out of state at UNLV/MWC Tournament? Did other schools have their campus police? How sure are you about this? |

So in listening it sounds like a it was a call from the SDSU campus police rather than the SDSU campus being there. Perhaps, I jumped the gun there in assuming that they were there.
