….and hopefully will become really good at it, going forward, so the only new merch to wear proudly in public would be anything with the M over S. I prefer football, but it’s embarrassing to buy football logo merch for me or my kids to wear in public anymore. I wish somehow the M over S could be a part of the football program, and all the other programs, so that we can all piggy back on wearing the merch proudly, without anyone solely associating our clothes with loosers.

ps. Also, I wouldn’t want to buy the gay &state even if we were good at football too. So there’s that. But I don’t think we’re going to be good anytime soon.

Why the 17 would you want to have the coveted M over S associated with our train wreck of a football program?

&tate script isn’t that bad in my opinion, I just can’t do the Banner anymore. Be proud of whatever you wear … just part of being a STATE Fan!
Ha understand what you’re saying. The “STATE” you emphasized seems fine, because it really really covers all, but also really isn’t solely associated with only one. Problem is there isn’t enough merch.

Why the 17 wouldn’t baseball want to take the lead here, and support ALL of the university? Especially since they are being emphasized nationally by us, financially in a way the other programs are not, with regards to comparison to their respective competition on a national scale. Baseball should be proud to share their logo, and cover the shame of the other aspects of its beloved university. We are ALL ONE. Help us non baseball carers, with more merch that carries prestige, that we can be proud to wear too.

Well for one thing, you’d sell a crap ton more of your coveted M over S logo, which would inflate your already elusion that college baseball is really that popular anyway. It would be a win win for everyone at State. Why would you not want to sell more merch?

Over the decades of being a State fan, I've liked anything Mississippi State. However the whole lunatic fringe with their, this logo sucks bring back this don't wear that. Blah blah. I more conscious of what I wear.

Years ago I did wear a MoS cap to football games. Not because of the logo but because it was Mississippi state and I liked the way the cap fits and looks. I don't wear it any longer to football games. I found a MState hat that I like.

I haven't bought one damn thing with &tate on it.

I have a MoS hat. But I only wear it to baseball games. If I wear any Mississippi State garb around town, it is MState only.

M over S should be OUR logo. Since we’ve decided to go all in for baseball, in a way unlike any other program, plus a proud history of success, that logo should be OUR main sports logo. You’d definitely sell more merch with this approach.

The implication of "we have gone all in for baseball" is becoming quite the maroon Internet legend.
We literally just took the Virginia coach and made him the highest paid college baseball coach in all of America. We’re not even in the same realm, with our value for our other sports coaches, with regards to the same comparison to their respective peers. Not to mention the amount we’re spending for baseball players in the same comparison. It’s not just some internet legend.

How much are we spending for players?

I’m not sure exactly. But I would assume if you’re going to pay one 54 year old man more than any other college baseball coach in America, that you are about to spend a significant amount comparatively for actual players. If not, that would be the most retarded thing ever.

I grew up hearing the two universities referred to as State and Ole Miss. Mississippi State was just not referred to. I grew up in a "State" family. I think the "State" script is the best logo we have ever had.

One more time, baseball either loses money or breaks even. Football pays the bills. Excess money spent on baseball is absolutely wasted money. Spend enough to keep the baseball idiots minimally happy, and even that is too much.

Even the baseball people know this is the real truth. That's why they get so defensive when this gets brought up. They know sooner or later somebody wise will eventually put their foot down.

bulldoghair has been trolling the board ever since O'Connor's salary was announced trying to shame baseball donors into how they should sons "their" money. He has a few cohorts, maybe 10-15 on the board that also feel the need to tell State donors what and how they should spend "their" money. For some reason they think the university is paying this money out. Someone needs to inform them that the IHL limits what the max base pay any athletics coach can get. Then the BC and private donors pay the rest.

The banner M is embarrassing logo. Interlocking and/or M over S should be the official logos. The rest are not historical. Script is acceptable as a secondary or tertiary logo on uniforms and apparel. It should not be on our helmets, hats, etc.

At least the uniforms will look better. We have to do something different. The banner M experiment has been a bust. Get rid of it.

We wore the M over S in football once. It looked like ****.

I know it’s June and posters here don’t really like to talk about actual sports, but DAMN. Y’all gotta move on. The Banner M is the university logo. The Script State is the athletics logo. M over S is exclusive to baseball (like a lot of baseball powers, USC, LSU, Etc). None of that is going to change under the current leadership. Nor should it.

The LSU’s and USC’s of the world as you mention have a fantastic tradition for every sport. Think more like a Duke ect. Their D’s, fonts, logos ect are all shared by football, baseball, and basketball. Basketball takes the lead on the merch as the marketing leader, even though the merch can represent ALL. That’s what I’m talking about with our baseball program. We are not LSU or USC. But comparatively speaking we can be more like Duke in this regard, with our baseball equaling their basketball program.

It is NO way a bust!! It absolutely identifies us as Mississippi State University, universally. If you want something that's a bust, it's that script "State." Talk about something that took ZERO imagination, that's it. I would take the M over S in a heartbeat over that script State. Also, under the last baseball administration, our softball program was refused the use of the M over S on their uniforms. I hope BOC has the good sense to change that and allow softball to use the M over S.

Wow. We are truly our own worst enemy. Unbelievable. But not surprised, with some of the responses toward me about using it for football. We can’t get out of our on way.

Fine locally and sec games but not to travel in and expect people to know which school
