Otto Porter

[DNABB5]

Did JT3 recruit him just to piss us off?

How can Georgetown have an Otto on their team. It just ain't right.

They have also had a Greg Monroe and a Mike (Mikael) Hopkins.

I know, but those are real names. How many real people are named Otto in this country?

How many non-bus drivers, especially?

I would argue how can we have a fat, giant orange for a mascot?

I've accepted Otto as our mascot, but it still doesn't change the fact he is a sucky mascot.

Otto is unique, but I kind of liked the Saltine Warrior mascot.

I credit Borkowski for me no longer hating Otto with a passion... Borkowski makes him bad-azz... Like last year's pre-hoya game artwork:

Well if our actual mascot at the games looked like that it would be really kickass. Instead he looks like a p***y.

We need to go all out on squashing the "happy and politically correct orange" stereotype. I want him in that costume, ripping a Hoya toy in half on the sidelines. And then kicking a husky puppy on Saturday. He also needs to fight every single opponent mascot and/or opponent fans and be thrown out every game around halftime.

Nobody messes with angry Otto.

Seriously guys, we're talking about a mascot.

most mascots suck.

stanford has a tree, georgetown has a hoya, rutgers has a knight (seriously, was there ever a knight in the us?), pitt has a panther.

none of them make sense.

If you said fat giant fruit I would have assumed you were talking about JTIII

According this link, Otto became a little more popular in 2003 and then flattened out again, but for some reason in 2012 it's making a big comeback.
