> 1809'ers (or the 'Niners)
 
For the love of God, I hope you guys don't go with this one!
 
> Ohioans
 
Almost as bad.
 
> Big Red (or, Red)
 
Cornell this isn't.
 
> Mighty Red
 
Ditto.
 
> Buckskins (or, 'Skins)
 
And 'Skins will get translated back to Redskins, we you'll be right back in
the same boat.
 
> Fire
 
Too much like UIC.
 
> Pride
 
Unimpressive.
 
> Arrows
> War Hawks
> Thunder Hawks
 
Now we talking about some real nicknames.
 
> The Miami (or, The Miamis)
 
About as unimaginative as some of the MIAC nicknames -- St. John's Johnnies,
Gustavus Adolphus Gusties, St. Olaf Oles, St. Thomas Tommies.
 
> Red Hawks
 
Sounds like Lowell.
 
> Legends
 
Yech.
 
> Red and White
 
I thought these kind of names went out around the turn of the century.
 
> Red Arrows
> Thunder
> Bison
> Thunderbirds
 
Like someone else said -- overall an unimpressive list.
