stand USC athletes, chicken or coot. Diversity is a good thing.
Go versatile Tigers, pick names that you like

Go friendly Tigers, variety is the spice of life.

make sense. I responded to OSF concerning ####. I use coot in most of my references to USC athletes. Regroup man, don't go on like this, seriously. If at first you don't succeed, skydiving is not for you. 
Go all Tigers, coots are coots are coots always.

Is there at least a good story about how it came into use? I never remember the term being used in 90's.

Any intended insult that makes you sound like an uncle-effer for saying it is no insult at all.

tater (for Clemson students and athletes) has been around since at least the 1960s, maybe longer. I was born not liking coots.
Go traditional Tigers, taters aren't bad, especially sweet and candied.
