Well yeah but no one knew we would ever see the MSU interlock ever again.
Am I ? I like the interlocking best but I think if you want to market a logo you dont change it every 15 years. And now here we are with 3 logos in 5 years. Eta " if we dont change from Banner M to State script this administration just doesn't care what the fans want". "Putting it on the helmet isnt enough, we want it changed everywhere". 6 months later " if we dont bring back the interlocking logo this administration just doesn't care what the fans want" . " Okay that's awesome but now we want it to be the main logo, put script State away" Sure. I'm all over the place. Its me.
That was always a bullsh*t excuse that wasn't true. Templeton just didn't want to take responsibility for his decision to change to the M-State logo.
I caught that, but I don't buy that. If this truly was the case, then push a logo that folks like. You don't hear any negative complaints about the M over S and since "We Are A Baseball School" wouldn't that make the most sense?
You're making to much sense. You're over the head of some.
State sold out the stadium more under the banner M era than ever in their history.
Couple of things:
I actually don’t disagree with you. I don’t think the banner should go away. I just think it looks like complete dogshitte on a football helmet.
I can agree with all this.
I dont know the timing on all of this, but the year we switched to the script State, 2023, is also the year Adidas started offering gear with the interlocking MSU logo. This stuff doesnt happen overnight. SOMEONE knew the logo was available and chose script State instead.
The odds on this Steve news being true are somewhere between "We're losing to Southern Miss" and "Glfr is a rational person"
I agree with Rosey when he says that a few loudly hate, and many don't care. I'm the latter. I've been quoted many times saying I don't care what the helmet logo is, but I certainly never HATED the official logo on it. I was actually ok with &tate on it every once in a while.
Right, and hopefully that person is now Keenum though I think he kinda got duped by the &tate hysteria too, we know we can get excited over a big sports wins (2019 Egg Bowl anyone?).
The only ones really pushing for it were the baseball Sixpack crowd, and the gays.
I dispute this, but only because the gays usually have good taste in fashion
One thing that's being lost that all the angry Gen Xers aren't telling us, is that is was tough to want to continue ANYTHING from the Kang Era after 2003. We all look fondly on it now, and the nostalgia came back pretty quickly once Croominator started losing.........but if you lived during that time, it's hard to argue that we all didn't need a huge break from the way MSU football was doing things. Even if it wasn't that bad with Jackie....and it was exaggerated.......the way we lost to end the year in 2002 and just were hapless in 2003, left an awful taste in everyone's mouth, much worse than the taste in @paindonthurt's mouth after he hangs out with Selmon. Many of the loudest interlocking guys were the ones wanting the Kang fired. Just facts.
We've had the banner M now for almost 30 years. It's the most consistency we've ever had. That's the issue. Agree no one would care about &tate. Again, it was just a preliminary strike against the banner M by the angry folks.
Most agree. The issue is the gap where the banner M used to be and where the &tate is now.
That's what doesnt make sense. No one ever registered the mark, so there was nothing to expire. And certainly nothing Steve could buy. But Ill listen when I have some time.
