Bob tweeted out they picked a winner last night. I would guess the guy that designed them is familiar with the pack. http://hailstatebeat.wordpress.com/?KEY=&DB_OEM_ID=16800&DB_LANG=C&IN_SUBSCRIBER_CONTENT=

I like that one too

I just think that the original designer was too ambitious in the collages. Maroon background would have made a greater impact.

If this person had made the frames independent, he was on the right track:

The point of my post, before your grammatical interpretation, was to say that Jack is Mississippi State football to a lot of people. Especially people who listened to State football and predate Tha Kang coming. I grew up away from Starkville and had a dad who didn't take me to games. I was not one of the 485,568 people in attendance at Veteran's Memorial in 1980 but I listened to Jack call it on the radio. I listened to Jack Cristil call every game as far back as I remember. I didn't get to go to a game in person till I was a freshman at State in 1988. He should be remembered for something on the outside of the stadium as well as the press box.

yeah, parts of it are a bit busy, but the concept is great. panels 3,4, and 5 had the right idea, but 2 and 6 got a little out there. still, it was a good concept, just needed some brushing up.

We're pretty retro already by mentioning those championships. The first is 73 years old, and the second is already 16 years in the past. It's time to rectify that.

And yes, Jack should be recognized on the exterior of the stadium in some manner. After all, he's the best all time college football announcer in the country.

I agree about Jack Cristil. He is simply the best football announcer there ever was. A number of Ole Miss Fans even admired him because he was so good. And he announced over half of the football games in the history of Mississippi State. He had a voice that was the epitome of the way I think a sports announcer should sound. He backed it up with great preparation.

1941 getting in will make Jortfro's blood pressure rise a bit. SPS for the win.
