Illinois' mascot does suck. I'm expecting the racist nature of it to be an even bigger national issue when they reach the final four. I'll trade for the dumb looking bird.

6. Don't really have a mascot
However, Chief Illinwek is halftime entertainment. A guy in an Indian suit dancing around.

7. Chief Illiniwek
Who was an actual chief from what I understand. He does what is supposed to be a traditional religious native-american dance. They claim it is a sign of respect. The late Senator Paul Simon poised that if holding a religious ritual at a sports event is respectful then why don't they hold communion at half-time during one of their games?
