bring back strutting bully!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't give a shit about Nike anymore.
Someone asked Cohen at one of these kinda "town hall" stops he does during the summer about how things were with adidas and if there were any plans to leave them, Cohen told everyone that the contract was going to be renewed with them and that he likes what adidas is doing with the attention they give us
The "MSJ" logo started during the Felker era and carried over to around 1995. Then, Nike revised it and made the MSU more prominent. However, the MSU logo from the Bellard and John Bond era was simple and looked good. I would agree that the unis worn in the early 80's were some of the best. I believe Memphis State had the exact same logo as us for a time.Quote:

I know there are alot of folks who love the Interlocking MSU. But did not Memphis State have the same or highly similar logo? That is why I never got emotionally attached to it.
I'm a big fan of the Flying M and MS logo of the 70s, but that's when I was a kid and started my long suffering of Miss State fandom. All I ask is no Walking Bully.
I was always a YUGE fan of the MS logo of the Threadgill and maybe early Bond years.....those simple Maroon helmets and maroon or white (not black) jerseys were incredible....
I hope this link works to my old Pinterest page. It’s got that MSU diagonal & the old MS decal helmet concepts on there.

Walking bully is great for merchandise but awful on a uniformQuote:

I love the baseball logo. I think it would be great on everything. Especially the football helmet.
M-State logo is embarrassingly terrible
Interlocking MSU needs to return
Would love just having STATE on our helmets a few games per season- and every Egg Bowl
A cursive State might look cool.
The Maroon and Gold is embarrassingQuote:

MState ..... markets us as State. It's the whole point of the banner.
100% correctQuote:

I liked the Egg Bowl uniforms this year. I guess if I had to change something about them I would have gone with an all gold helmet.
This will be a popular opinion.....
The MState logo, itself, is good. The problem on the helmets is that starting with Mullen, we made the logo smaller on the helmet. It just looks like a block of white or maroon.
Since the players will prefer to white helmets on the road, the Croom white helmet needs to be the standard. Large distinctive logo, maroon stripe and face mask. I've always thought Wisconsin and Tennessee had good looking helmets.... for white helmets.
On dark helmets; Missouri's large power M looked good. When we wear maroon helmets, the logo needs to be the size of those Missouri Ms.
For the record, I liked the MSU logo. It just isn't coming back.
Thank you. We have invested millions in branding M State. It's the closest we've ever come in our history to having something instantly recognized by the general public. It works great in just about all applications from print to embroidery. It's also perfect for social media profiles which is a large consideration for modern branding. I do this kind of thing for a living. Throwing away the M State brand would be insane.Quote:

MO moved away from the M just like we should. I don't care one way or the other about MSU (it looks dated to me). But the banner M should be used on the academic side, not athletics.Quote:

Bama's stencil numbers look terrible. Their script A would look much better.
Replying to thee other person, yeah.... Missouri went to that round tiger head which looks like nothing too from a distance
heres a few of them:Quote:

Along with all the highlights that are shown in today's world has us with the M State helmets. What little recognition we have with the logo would be thrown out the window. 90% of the college football world thinks Michigan State when you say MSU. However, the M State is distinctly us.Quote:

Nobody cares what a logo looks like from the stands. You can't see any of them. On tv you can see it. MO upgraded their branding with the change. The banner M just looks like a mess on tv. You can't even read State. Hell, you shouldn't have to read a logo unless it's large lettering like UCLA or something.Quote:

I like this concept from Chillbilly

I like that Chillbilly concept too.
I have a bunch of friends that are LSU fans, Bama fans, Auburn, and Ole Miss fans. All of them...every single on of them...refer to us as State. We need to drop the ?M? and just market State.
Well.... whatever happens, "nothing" need not be an option.
The M-State helmets are super generic & suck. Our helmets need a little more character & charisma
Agreed.Quote:
