If Our Mascot wasn’t a husky...

what would you choose to rename the teams and why? Saw this over on a reddit thread and thought it was interesting and why. Try to incorporate something significant about the state, school region, etc

University of Connecticut Cats. About as generic and PC as your gonna get in this state. You can have your pick of mascots, lions, kitty cats, tigers, alley cats, cool cats, happy cats, angry cats, cartoon cats. The state is pretty much run by women now anyways so if your going to switch the mascot from a dog then what is more appropraiate than a cat? Besides, the football team plays like a bunch of ------- anyways so why not have a name that better represents. Yeah, that's a cheap, low blow shot but I'm tired of rooting for a team that doesn't represent the great state of Connecticut like it should be represented. Over the years the state and it's residents have ponied up quite a bit of cash for a D-1 football team and it's time they get what they paid for.
