:: on the new mississippi state logos

one of the many changes being made a mississippi state is the creation of a somewhat different school logo. for as long as i've been at state we've had a myriad of different logos for different activities and organizations. the baseball team had their logo, the football team and basketball team had the same m-state banner logo, a lot of people (including me) are still attached to the interlocking msu logo that the football team used to have (the copyright is owned by nike, who isn't manufacturing our uniforms anymore), there was the walking- or more accurately described as "strutting"- bully, and there was the university seal. athletic director greg byrne commissioned the creation of a new logo, which looks pretty darn similar to the m-state banner logo, and along with it some cool new "spirit logos" like the ones bellow...
i'm pretty excited to see how we use these logos. i like the new depiction of bully, it gives him more of a bite. i also think it's awesome that we've incorporated the cowbell into a logo, especially since the sec banned those things at football games a few years back...

more to come...
