Boston College - Eagles (Okay)
Clemson - Tigers (Awesome)
Duke - Blue Devils (Get rid of "blue" ... makes no sense)
Florida State - Seminoles (Change to Indians - Florida had more than one type of Native American)
Georgia Tech - Yellow Jackets (Okay)
Louisville - Cardinals (Change - Blue Jays are meaner)
Miami - Hurricanes (Okay)
North Carolina - Tarheels (Stupid, change to Cheaters)
NC State - Wolfpack (Okay)
Pitt - Panthers (Okay)
Syracuse - Orange (Orange what ? Chicken ? Grasshoppers ? Pick something)
Virginia - Cavaliers (not wild about it ... they wear pantyhose)
Virginia Tech - Hokies (Change! No one knows what this is ... Wild Turkeys)
Wake Forest - Demon Deacons (Change! out of date ... Televangalists)

I don't have a problem with Blue Devils or Demon Deacons...at least they are unique.
I don't have a problem with Seminoles either, and the Seminole Nation approves it.
I think Syracuse used to be the Orangemen, but I guess that changed with Title IX.
Cavaliers...I think of someone having a cavalier attitude!
I guess Tarheels is appropriate, since they should be tarred and feathered! But Sleazebag Swoffies would be better. Or maybe the Slithering Snakes!!

I get why the Ibis is used to represent the Hurricanes - apparently last to leave and first to return when there's a storm. I'm still puzzled why the Ibis looks more like a duck, though!
