Wow, those are all horrible.  They all reek of trying to hard to do something new and cutesy.  And maybe It is because I am not from Texas but "boot scooting" is a reference to a dog dragging its ass across the floor because it has irritated anal glands.  Not a great name, to say the least, though the logo could be hilarious.

A girl I knew in high school played juco softball briefly for Garden City CC in Kansas.  They're the Broncbusters, or Busters for short.  No reason that couldn't be the case here as well.
