The last to do so was Jackie Sherrill. The graphic clearly said Ole Miss.

And some of the national people won’t call us that

Pat forde doesn’t but will let it slip

And there’s a black commentator that also refuses to call us that

Anyone that calls Ole Miss "Mississippi" immediately loses all credibility and their opinion is discarded.

That being said, Ole Miss pushed really hard to get ESPN to refer to us as Ole Miss and not Mississippi to help our identity and branding. I wouldn't be surprised if Keith Carter makes a phone call to ESPN about this.

Jones is Canadian. He can’t help it.
