They claim that a Gael is a "mounted Irish knight". Trivia question: What's another NCAA Division 1 School with the Gael as a mascot?

Minerva N. Owl Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 9 minutes ago, jonny karate said: St Mary's is a gael Bingo. Both Iona and St. Mary's are Christian Brothers. It's historically an Irish order. The St. Mary's mascot looks like a knight, unlike the Iona mascot, which sort of looks like Abraham Lincoln or something. For Iona's game against Alabama, the Tuscaloosa paper did this lighthearted story on Iona's mascot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old guy Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 It is to be remembered that the Celtic language spoken in Ireland is named Gaelic. So, a gael can be a mounted knight or something else but it certainly denotes an Irish origin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBFan Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Everyone dressed today Linssen practicing. Strickland was hitting some 3’s in practice which is an improvement. Jones 3 point shot is looking better in practice. Jimerson is as smooth as ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian’s Song and Bang the Drum Slowly are still two of my favorite movies. Although they tend to cause the roof to leak above my chair. a Gael is someone who speaks Gaelic. Or someone who knows how to find Amach, and now’s it is not a place. brianstl likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Classic scene at the beginning. Brian Piccolo tells Gale Sayers that George Halas is "a little deaf in his left ear ... so you gotta stand on his right hand side if you want him to hear a word you say." Pretty humorous classic scene, as Gale Sayers sort of dances around Halas to constantly talk into his "good ear". That's at the beginning, before the heart wrenching stuff later in the story.
