I support taking down the flag but this does not represent anything confederate related. The name rebels is derived from it but Byrne's is a prestigious school to attend and has a rich history that goes along with the name. I am not some southern redneck hick who drives a big truck with a confederate flag behind me. The name does not represent anything negative and neither does the logo. The logo does not feature a confederate flag and the name does not suggest anything to do with the former confederate states of America. Please do not do this. From one reasonable civilized person to another.
