Student By Day, Devil By Night

A short glimpse into the life of our cherished mascot.

      Who is this mysterious Devil that excites the fans and dances with the cheerleaders? Our mascot is a spirited soul who likes to “get ‘crunk’ and crazy with the 12th Man club.” In order to get hyped up and ready for a game’s worth of cheer our mascot takes a trip to Zaxby’s before the game and loads up on candy, water and Gatorade. There is no time for a break, our Devil is always ready to “pump up the fans and team even when we [the team] are at our worst.” When the Devil feels a little blue about not being able to be in the stands with it’s friends, it waits for the infamous band song “Corner Store” and cheerleader captain Allie Fair’s little skit. The Devil gets some grief from opposing team fans but challenges any of their mascots to a show-down during half time.
