Actually the perfect summing up of their program.
Official mascot
Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep ram. One of the most majestic animals in nature able to survive difficult conditions and fight off predators.
The reality of who they are expressed by a mascot
A stinking domestic sheep. Easily led around by a single person, known for willingly submitting to being sheared, killed by coyotes, and otherwise being one of the least impressive animals one could find.
Fits them well, talk a big game, lay claim to an impressive identity, then bleat like victims in waiting when they are exposed for what they are.
