Marshall Track, not the Thundering Herd .
The idea came from it.
But it does lead into a good question of how did several universities start using the same clip art type graphic. Not that I researched all of them, but odd that others also have it as well.
It just is not very unique.
The last Saturday of games, Iowa State with their Banner Istate and black uniforms looked similar to our black uniforms being worn on same day. Just a couple of state schools wearing black and with the same Banner State over their letter.
That is my soap box I guess for logos, ha, so I appreciate the conversation about it actually.
Flying M seem to me more unique.
