Pretty much everyone ive seen post on the matter thinks it terrible, and it is, so what should it be?
Even if its only temporary and for a year, its still terrible.

Hail State. It's pretty difficult to come up with anything else. But Hail State seems to be a pretty popular slogan idea. We definitely wouldn't get talked about and made fun of for that slogan like we would for Vroom Maroon. What does that even mean. Vroom like a car goes vroom vroom? So basically we're saying let's go state?WTF? It's bad PR ifanything, and this is supposed to be good right?
I'm not sure if I'm a fan or not, though...
Gotta keep it short. Roll Tide, War Eagle, Hotty Toddy, Go Gata, Geaux Tigers...

"up your nose with a rubber hose" as a better catch phrase than vroom maroon...whatever THE HELL that is. Otherwise, I agree..Hail State, Go Dawgs, True Maroon...at this point it doesn't matter...just somebody...make that pathetic marketing miscalculation go away.
This theme needs to be edgy and violent. I replied to 3000 lb Chicken because of his video of JJohns getting knocked out.
That clip must be included. Loud aggressive music with a 1.5-2.0min clip to be played on the jumbotron of MSU beating the *** of the opposition.
-Josh Morgan over the middle knocking folks dicks in the dirt.
-JJ Johnson knocking a players hat off.
-David Stewart locked up and pushing aguy 15 yrds out of bounds and over a bench.
-The guy hittingTim Couch (name escapes me).
-MSU baseball player crushinga catcher headinginto home plate.
-Jamont dunking over someone.
-Pegues knocking a receiverinto tomorrow.
-Brief clips of all of our coaches screaming and looking mean....likeCoach Fanning, yo?
-The two hottest girl volleyball players making out (just because).
Daughtry did something with the SEC (crash?) andsoon to be something with the final four. We need to license Break Something by Limp Biskit plus some kind of rap as well, Mama Said Knock You Out or perhaps something new about gangstas killing one another or at least something that the players would like?
Once this comes out we need folkson Gene's page saying that it isn't sporting, and portrays us in a bad light, etc...then you will know it is on target. We also need3 out of 5 people over 50 complaining about how loud the jumbotron music that goes with this clip. Then weknow we are there.
I want to see MSU portrayed as fighters rather than the ***** of the SEC. We may get beat, but we are going to get our licks in and put up a good fight.
M-S-U <------> We'll-Break-You!!
could replace the back and forth:
Maroon <-----> White
Obvious one set to Queen's song we will rock you: We will, we will....BREAK YOU!
If you can't hang your hat on winning or tradition, violence and intensity is always a good alternative.
Vroom vroom!

No. They are on the same level of ghey.
As for my input on what the "slogan" should be, I'd say to hell with a slogan altogether. If the Athletic Department is so determined to do something completely off-the-wall and different to try to separate ourselves, my suggestion would be to just change our nickname from Bulldogs back to Maroons. Keep Bully as our mascot like Auburn has the Eagle or whatever. There's no team that I know of named Maroons, so that in itself would be a starting point. Take the marketing from there.
It's bold and risky, yes, but isn't that what they are looking for?
This may be just a one-year marketing slogan as opposed to an attempt to create a slogan that sticks like "hook em horns" or "war eagle" or even "hotty toddy". Notice the first sentence below - this is a campaign to push season tickets, marketing, and promo activities for 2010-2011.
If it is a one-year deal, like "spread the fun" was, thenI can live with it. But don't expect the crowd to be chanting "Vroom Maroon". And, again, if it's a one-year deal, i doubt they expect the slogan to be chanted by the fans.

"Hail State" should be our slogan. I find it hard to believe that it never caught on the first time it was introduced. I've alwaysperferred it over "Go State" and I've always said it to other State fans whenI unexpectedly see them places such as airports.Even if this Vroom Maroonfoolishness is only a one year deal, all fans should push for "Hail State" as our identity.</p>
you need to give cranking up the car with the garage door closed a chance.
If this McCluster17 of a slogan ever sees the light of day, Greg Byrne should pack his bags and get the hell out of Starkville.
