G and Q if they had the interlocking M & S.

I may have missed it but is there some reason the interlocking M & S can't be used except for baseball?

of working in an AD while the mascot and logos were contemporized, the way it works is we'll pick about four or five of these and they'll be our catalogue of licensed mascots/logos. So we'll probably end up with about one for each of those groupings. Forgive me if this is common knowledge.

and put him in front of the state in K. That's my choice.

that was used for many years, would be better than any of those....and true to State form, it was done away with....maybe had something to do with the fact that it came into use during the Bob Tyler years. I don't think he came up with it, but that's when it came into use.

but I like these:


I really like this one:


But I would add the STATE banner to the front of the "M".

but the bully needs tweaking so he doesn't look like f'n droopy dog. ****. You gotta believe these were all trial balloons. Detailed refinement to come later. I want the bully to look like he would qualify for banishment from the City of Richland Aggressive Dog Ordinance.

do ANYTHING to help clear up the confusion between Mississippi State and other schools/teams ! As for that goal, this is another design effort gone awry because the "professional" designers lost sight of the reason the logos were being redesigned.

The drawings of the Bulldogs are simple (lacking detail), but maybe that's what the goal was...easier to draw, reproduce, etc.

These aren't as bad as "Rowdy Rebel" but I'm, not bowled over.

I truly believe that MSU could sponsor a contest that's open to the public and end up with better designs. Just offer a $10,000 prize or 4 season tickets (in every sport) for the winning entry.

B, D, and Q are great for large logos
J is my vote for a helmet logo, the only other one that should be allowed to go on a helmet is E
I usually hate Miss. State abbreviated that way, but i really like logo L
M would be good at half-court at the hump
F would make a pretty cool shield

Q is unique. There aren't too many logos out there at an angle like that.
but D and L are good, too.

I actually like them all but P....how is that a choice? It just says "mississippi" Isn't a logo about identification.

The rest look really good which just shows how long we've needed a new graphic bulldog.

It looks like logos from the 50's and 60's that I've seen on my parent's MSU notebooks, stickers, etc.

Neuter the whole lot of those ideas. Did it take the artist 20 minutes to come up with all of them? Pathetic.

I'd take "J" and leave it big, but tilt it and make it a little more sleek and jagged, much like (but not quite like) the Jacksonville Jaguars helmet, and maybe throw a slightly arched State on top of it, or just leave the Dog-head by itself and put State on the front lip of the helmet in small print like we've done before. I wouldn't mind leaving a little detail out as long as it was clearly a Bulldog that looked mean as hell, just to give it some old school flavor like LSU's Tiger logo... but not so it would look like theirs.

I think helmets look best and more classic when they are somewhat plain, but easily recognizable. I mean, we have a friggin' banner on ours now. It's just too much detail. I don't want a giant "M" on our helmets unless there's an "S" and/or a "U" there as well. Gimme the dog-head, the interlocking MSU or the baseball MS. Any of those helmets would be a sharp improvement.

otherwise all are terrible.

too played, too out-dated, no design what so ever.

Back to drawing board please!
