otherwilds Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 New Mexico Sate has recently unveiled a boring new logo [ http://www.nmstatesports.com/SportSelect.d...00&ATCLID=65977 ] and are looking to replace their mascot also [ http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/news/story?id=2071458 ]. Just the image, they are keeping the Aggie name. I love the quote about Pistol Pete "The current Pete costume is decades-old and scares children, Martin said."I would consider that a plus myself.

Am I blind and missing the new logo?? All I see is the NM State over the state of New Mexico. They've had that one for a while. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

brennus Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Isn't Texas A&M the Aggies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Isn't Texas A&M the Aggies? Are schools not allowed to share the same nickname?? How about Arizona, Kentucky, and Villanova? Should two of those schools change their macsot?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CityOfWalrus Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Isn't Texas A&M the Aggies? Utah State, North carolina A&T, New Mexico State, and texas A&M are all called the aggies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean84106 Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 You'll find that many State and A&M schools have the name "Aggies" because most were Agricultural schools, hence they would call them"Aggies". Another school was Colorado A&M, now Colorado State. They once were the Colorado A&M Aggies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should two of those schools change their macsot?? Whoa, simmer.It was a simple question where an explanation such as Sean provided would've been much more appropriate.

winghaz Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Sorry to any Aggie fans, but Aggies is a lousy name. So, considering the nickname, the "new" New Mexico logo isn't bad. It just could have been better.And would you rather have a logo of a plow with the Aggies name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 Sorry to any Aggie fans, but Aggies is a lousy name. I totally agree. Aggies is a pretty weak name, especially for a school located in New Mexico. Just think of the possible nicknames they could use that are associated with the southwest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raz Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 Actually, the NMSU women are called Roadrunners. Not "Lady Aggies," thankfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnWis97 Posted May 31, 2005 Share Posted May 31, 2005 That is NOT a brand new logo. I think the fact that the "NM State" is inside of the state's shape is new. But the "NM State" is not. Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

The New Mexico shaped logo been around for at least a year or two. If I recall correctly that logo has been around for at least 8 or 9 years. To Otherwilds: Just because they posted it to their website last June (which isn't recently at all), it doesn't mean it's brand new. Smart is believing half of what you hear.
