    It was a national poll. I think admin and our marketing consultants have rightly said if we want to build a national brand (not regional), State is the way to do it. I've been in the marketing business for a long time and I agree with that decision. Again, just my two cents.

    Why the hell are grown men so angry about other people being excited for LED lights? That's what I would consider sad.

    For the reasons as you see in this very same thread. Change it up. A damn light show during pregame would be a lot more exciting for the fans in attendance and on TV than tired ass Madalon and a dumb maron whit cheer

    Every poll I have seen regarding MSU's football uniform prefers the 1998's by a majority of 65%.

    I'm not sure why MSU insists that the football uniform be the primary billboard for school branding as there are as you know other forms of advertisement.

    I'm excited that our football gameday is going to look like a SEC gameday because it helps with perception and helps attract better players leading to more wins.

    The lights don't get me excited. Winning the games do.

    Lot of the older dawgs complained about loud music leading to not much change with sound system volume, which makes little sense, considering that there are cowbells ringing in their ear constantly all game.

    I don't know what DJ music they play at Ohio State games, but I do know their band plays after every darn play and the whole time during timeouts let's be like THEM!

    Both come up. Mich st first but that is because their website is MSU.edu and real MSU is msstate.edu

    We were second on the list which is pretty good since our website doesn't even have MSU in it.

    Or did you see something else?

    3. Faculty has to pay a seat license now! Well it's better than nothing.

    4. Price of tickets increasing. I'm good with it as long as the money is invested well in NIL and the football program as a whole.

    5. The new media team is noticeably better. Looking forward to as much content as possible.

    Wishlist and questions I have:

    1. What is MSU doing to increase their recruiting presence in football? This has been a major issues since Sherrill left.

    2. Bring back the interlocking MSU uniforms as the primary!!!!
    Todd, what do you mean by “recruiting presence”?

    Basically just keep putting more and more resources into recruiting. Add more recruiting analysts, etc.

    Recruiting analysts are those who identify talent to pursue?

    Just have the interlocking on the helmet and STATE across the front of the jersey! This is not rocket science and has been discussed before. Why do we make this so hard? We can be branded as State and still use the interlocking. Jeez.
    Edit: Not really directed at you Todd even though I quoted you.

    People like different things. You like 80s porn with Afros and bushes everywhere. It is not my thing but I am not going to knock you for it.
