kansas sports fan Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Really, that's my favorite logo that doesn't belong to a team I show good-bias to. Acts 16:31 - And they replied: "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be saved, you and your household."John 3:16 - "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life."John 14:6 - Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illwauk Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Maybe I'm biased because the chance for the logo I designed (that's currently used by the club football and hockey teams) has fallen through, but come on... gradients in 2014?What's worse, this is our only logo. No monogram alternative for when people want to buy school gear without that gaudy belt buckle on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayWhiteSports_45966 Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I'm from Jackson and live there. I will pay money out of my pocket for a full JSU redesign concept. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illwauk Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Isn't the Jackson State logo just their academic mark that they've decided to use for athletics?But yea... they need something new. Too bad they don't have a "C" in their school's name so they could just adopt the Bears' logo as a tribute to Walter Payton the way Grambling adopted the Packers logo for Willie Davis.

The "Block JSU" logo has been around for a long time. Part of the reason it has endured (I'm guessing) is 1) they were very successful for a very long time in all sports, and 2) The logo is a party of one. There's not really anything else that is close to it. It is truly a distinguishing mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hailstateunis Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I remember thinking during the Lafayette regional last year that JSU could build an identity around the block J on their baseball cap. Would be generic, but better than what they have now.Those baseball jerseys on the other hand... Worst I've ever seen. I'll see if I can find a picture. http://www.hailstateunis.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illwauk Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 A quick google search turned up this. Not great, but so much more appealing than what they're using now.Hell, their actual academic wordmark would look better on a football helmet than their tic tac toe game.

48erhater Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 At least Michigan's M (or Georgia's G or Alabama's A) puts the emphasis on the school's name and general location.Miami's letter logo comes from University. Do you realize just how many official college names begin with "(The) University of..."? Ask a non-sports fan what "The U" stands for, and their first thought won't be Miami.It's a minor annoyance to me when the singular letter logo isn't an indicator of where they're from. Michigan State can sort of get away with the S logo because of their nickname. South Carolina using the C logo (granted, with the ugly-ass chicken) kinda slights the state, and it could be slightly argued that the C could also stand for the nickname of the nickname.Everybody in Utah calls The University of Utah, The U. I've always thought it was dumb that Miami calls themselves that. It actually makes sense for Utah to be called the U. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayWhiteSports_45966 Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Sweater'd Panther is a boss.pscf3, tell me about it! The white on light gray makes me wanna puke. Could you imagine being a stat spotter or a spotter for the PA? Or how bout a visiting radio broadcaster? I was at the arena the other night when they hosted Southern Miss. Same thing; White on light gray. At least the hoops jerseys have a thin blue trim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PSUcelticsWON95 Posted December 24, 2014 Share Posted December 24, 2014 Is Eastern Michigan still using this one? I'm tempted to do it for free for them.I know they primarily use the block 'E' but I'm not too sure if the eagle logo is active at all or not. Either way I feel they need an upgrade.

Luke_Groundrunner Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 Is Eastern Michigan still using this one? I'm tempted to do it for free for them.I talked to the EMU athletics director Derrick Vergolini last week, when he contacted us about updating the EMU Eagles page on the site. He said that all the logos from 2003 were now discontinued, and the only logo they currently use is the green block E. So the EMU page was update according to his instructions.http://www.sportslogos.net/logos/list_by_team/669/Eastern_Michigan_Eagles/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even during a holiday break period, she has more on her hands than to contact this site. Not that the change of logos is false, but you talked to a kid who is a freshman and is a quasi-team baseball manager per his own Twitter account. .
