‘Tigers’ seemed a logical choice since most collegiate teams in that year bore the names of ferocious animals, but the underlying reason why LSU chose ‘Tigers’ dates back to the Civil War.

According to Arthur W. Bergeron, Jr., PhD. and the “Guide to Louisiana Confederate Military Units, 1861-1865” (LSU Press, 1989), the name Louisiana Tigers evolved from a volunteer company nicknamed the Tiger Rifles, which was organized in New Orleans. This company became a part of a battalion commanded by Major Chatham Roberdeau Wheat and was the only company of that battalion to wear the colorful Zouave uniform. In time, Wheat’s entire battalion was called the Tigers.

That nickname in time was applied to all of the Louisiana troops of Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia. The tiger symbol came from the famous Washington Artillery of New Orleans. A militia unit that traces its history back to the 1830s, the Washington Artillery had a logo that featured a snarling tiger’s head. These two units first gained fame at the Battle of First Manassas on July 21, 1861. Major David French Boyd, first president of LSU after the war, had fought with the Louisiana troops in Virginia and knew the reputation of both the Tiger Rifles and Washington Artillery.

Thus when LSU football teams entered the gridiron battlefields in their fourth year of intercollegiate competition, they tagged themselves as the ‘Tigers’. It was the 1955 LSU ‘fourth-quarter ball club’ that helped the moniker ‘Tigers’ grow into the nickname, ‘Fighting Tigers’.

The best part about this was that the Tiger regiment was notorious for its violence and fear tactics during the Civil War. I think players should stay away from both these racist institutions. Players should probably avoid the whole SEC and instead choose a much better option, like the University of Miami.
 
Several Louisiana brigades in the Confederacy were known as the "Tigers." He's a certified *******. Hope they run him out of town in 4 years.

Poor Ole Miss lol. First they are called racists and now other coaches saying their players are stupid. They can’t catch a break this week
 
Then he should have known he wanted to leave immediately when offered. Nothing changed. LSU is a better job just say so.
