Because that seems kinda wack ngl I think that’s what makes them unique. Sure, it’s not the natural choice, but if everyone always did exactly what was expected, we’d never stumble upon anything new or interesting. Of course, they need more branding to support it if this style is going to be a school-wide thing, but I think it has potential. Honestly, I’d guess that they chamfered the inside corners to link it to the BU monogram and BAYLOR wordmark a little.

MEANS Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 21 hours ago, Gupti said: Arbitrary notches in number fonts to make them “unique” have become very popular ever since Michigan State started doing it back in 2010. The 3 and 9 even have the exact same notches. Feels like every irrelevant team is turning to them nowadays to “stand out”, but MSU is definitely the prototype for them. They’ve gotten very hackneyed at this point, especially since they have since put MSU’s font exactly as it is in the catalog. Notches in fonts have been around WAAAAAAY before 2010.... https://www.andrewsterlachini.com/ or http://dribbble.com/MEANS1974 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m speaking very specifically about those “cut-out” inner notches that started with MSU. Every team that’s tried to use them since looked at MSU for inspiration.

They have the current custom font, and before that they used black. Michigan states font came out in 2010 and was made popular and copied by everyone since then.

Michigan State's font is older though (MSU - 2010, BU - 2013) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A notch is a cut into something, not an extension of it. 4 hours ago, Gupti said: I’m speaking very specifically about those “cut-out” inner notches that started with MSU. Every team that’s tried to use them since looked at MSU for inspiration. The Detroit Lions had notches a year before MSU. But I would agree that MSU's were more of a catalyst for the greater trend, especially in college and high school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

upperV03 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Looks like Oregon State will be revealing new uniforms on April 20th: Hopefully they’re similar to the Retro Benny uniforms from this past season: If I had to guess I’d say they’ll be somewhat similar to those, but with their proprietary number font and the current beaver logo instead of the Retro Benny logo.
