100 new nicknames for Marquette


Now that Marquette has wisely owned up to the fact that Milwaukee is simply not going for the Gold, the school is soliciting ideas for a new name. Names? We've got a few (dozen) suggestions. Sure, some are great, thank you very much, and a few, admittedly, are ill-advised, at best. But, hey, at least we're giving it the old college try.

Bree said: As a non MU student who frequents common MU bars, some of the students may have money, but you'd never guess it by looking at them. Many of them are overweight bad dressers with terrible personalities. I can see why MU guys look elsewhere for girlfriends.
