Anyone be able to help me out on this? I did a 5 minute google search and found nothing, so was wondering if the brain power of the OC had the answer. Anyone know if the Duke Mascot has a nickname? I'm not talking about "Blue Devils," but an actual nickname. Like THE Ohio State University Buckeyes nickname is Brutus. Anyone?
