GW Caves to Woke Mob on Mascot Name, Alum Clay Travis Says 'I Am Done Supporting This University’

The OutKick founder described their mascot, which is George Washington dressed as a colonial general, and explained why the school was all wrong in calling it offensive.

"Your goal as a university is not to placate idiocy. It is to educate. That is why universities exist," Travis said.
