I appreciate the initiative, and I think it has its place. But as someone else pointed out last night, I'm sick of people committing to #HailState and us putting Hail State on our jerseys. We're not Hail State University, and by the looks of everything MSU related that has been lost on our athletic department.

I can't see Ole Miss putting Hotty Toddy, Alabama Roll Tide, Tennessee Rocky Top, South Carolina [chicken noise], or Auburn War Eagle on uniforms.

It's better than "Go State!" but that's essentially what it is. We're basically putting "Go State!" across the chest of our uniforms.

Call me an old out of touch has been (never was?) but I wholeheartely agree....

I can't help but laugh at the image of USC with "cock-a-doodle doo" printed on the front of their uniforms.

i agree, but the marketing department seems dug-in on it. they are going to jam it down our throats at every opportunity. i dont like saying it in most circumstances but apparently, we have to match the rest of the sec with a gimmicky saying.

Auburn has War Eagle on their jersey btw. If you want to give something sticking power, you have to overtly promote it at the start. After a while, the advertising of it will slow down.

Thread complaining about a broken keyboard and/or ****** car soap to come.

Touché. I'm going home now. It was fun playing.

I think it's a cool saying, like when you see someone you don't know after a big win and say "Hail State". It's better than go dawgs or go State. But it's kind of silly on the uniforms and I really don't care for "I committed to #HailState today" but whatever.

I found a pretty good bourbon bbq sauce recipe from bobby flay that I'm planning on doing on some wings. Probably do it on my BGE while having some ice cold single malts from my yeti.

I prefer 'go dogs' myself. 'Hail State' sounds too ancient roman to me.

I usually say something like Helll 17ing yeah!

to strangers when we win. That would look cool on our uniforms.

I like Hail State...a lot. I'm with you though..keep it off the uniforms. Please plaster it on all of the marketing material and stadium graphics but stop putting it on uniforms where it doesn't belong. That goes for the 17n banner mississippi state too.

I agree... I like "Hail State". It's unique, and way better than "Go Dawgs" or "Go State". Putting it on jerseys is a little over the top... But who knows, that could be the new thing going forward.

You don't want me to express my feelings towards Community being cancelled. I could start 30 threads on that one. I'll cool it.
