The nevada wolfpack wolf pack?
just doesn't look right. We were first, weren't we? Wasn't NC State established before Nevada was even a state?

The school might have been founded earlier than State, that doesn't mean that their mascot is older than ours. 11/8/2005 7:12:03 PM |

this reminds me of the history of state's mascot that the Technician ran about 4-5 years ago when the atheletics department decided to adopt the block S as the official logo for all athetic teams 11/8/2005 7:16:50 PM |

Where did you get they were founded in 1801?
Their website said the idea for a "university" in Elko was approved in 1873, and opened in 1874... but that there was only one professor, and seven students, but closed down within a decade. They authorized construction for a university in Reno in 1887, still with only about 20 people.
eh... I can't believe I actually looked that up.

They were founded before us, but we were the "Wolfpack" first
They were the "Sagebrushes" up until like the 50's I believe.... (Interestingly enough their school paper is still called "The Sagebrush" for that reason)
Edit: And the reason I know this is becuase I've had this argument with a Nevada fan before

That was the whole point. I knew Nevada wasn't founded till the mid 1800s or so. I was making it pretty obvious it was a lie, I just wanted to see how many people would bite. 11/8/2005 8:08:09 PM |
