The new Herbie is too nice, we need to add some toughness. Bring back the Old Herbie

Just put a knife in lil Red.

I can't stand that thing... never have... Herbie is best...

and if we're going down in personal preference of Herbie...
1) Old school / "Real" Herbie
2) Current Herbie
3) "Harry Husker" Herbie

We just need to scrap all of our mascots and start over with something badass. Think sharktopus driving a tractor level badass. Can cows get rabies and wield machetes while wearing a hockey mask? Something on that level.

If we could consolidate that into a more overarching character I'd be cool with it. Like a grizzly bear wearing a Zoro mask that carries a machine gun and can summon murder hornets. Thats probably the most intimidating image ever. Definite mascot material.

Herbie Husker should be blond. I think there would be a lot of rejoicing if they ever did that. Not sure the exact timeline, I think they switched it in 2004 Season Opener with the first callahan game? Thanks Peterson.

If Frost could get this high octane offense up and running, I'd partner with ethonol producers and milk high octane corn ethonol e85 racing fuel for everything it is worth. Let the boys on east campus build a tricked out, high output tractor (basically a drag car on tractor tires) and crank that beast up after every touchdown and let it rip down the sidelines. Probably have them build a monster combine that feeds on small countryside varmints. Put a chickenhawk, gopher or badger in front of it and let the big dog eat.
