StefOn Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 I just saw a pic from the Emerald Bowl and noticed that the logo on the pants is pretty different than the Chief Osceola logo. I do not follow FSU, so this might not be new to some of you. If not new, does anyone know why they use a different logo here? Changing the wording from Florida State to Noles is one thing, but this logo has changed proportions, misses the face paint and has a new hairline (Elvis look). Also, the longer I look at that face, the more asian that face looks to me.Is this alredy the "fading out" of Chief Osceola? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed that too but I think it's just a case of a complicated logo not transferring well to a small patch on the pants. Not a different logo just getting shrunk down and losing details.

Survival79 Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 It appears to be a case of "it has always been that way." Here's a picture from October 22, 1988: "If things have gone wrong, I'm talking to myself, and you've got a wet towel wrapped around your head."

Here's a picture from October 22, 1988:oh God, is that Brad Johnson *shudders*plus, on the pants it says "NOLES", where as the logo says "FLORIDA STATE" @josh_j12 CFA- Fargo Bobcats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-(dp)- Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 It appears to be a case of "it has always been that way." Here's a picture from October 22, 1988:That one is not quite the same, though. You can see in this picture, the pants logo still has the face paint. Also, this one appears to say "state" where the new one says "noles."

Also, this one appears to say "state" where the new one says "noles."It appears FSU has worn at least 3 different versions of Osceola on the hip:STATE with face paintNOLES with face paintNOLES without face paintOctober 10, 1998 (STATE with face paint):August 31, 1998 (NOLES with face paint):September 12, 1998 (NOLES without face paint):November 11, 2004 (NOLES without face paint):January 4, 2006 (NOLES without face paint):It also appears that there was some overlap in 1998.September 25, 1998 (NOLES with face paint on top, NOLES without face paint on bottom):November 21, 1998 (NOLES without face paint on #48, NOLES with face paint on far right): "If things have gone wrong, I'm talking to myself, and you've got a wet towel wrapped around your head."

sj32 Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 I don't know if this is a coincidence or not, but the patches with "State" and the face paint are all on the right hip while the ones with "Noles" and no face paint are all on the left hip. I think they wore both patches, "State" on the right and "Noles" on the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefOn Posted January 1, 2007 Author Share Posted January 1, 2007 Thank you guys. I still don't get why they change the logo for the pants (and just the pants) but what the heck... By the way: September 12, 1998, that Nole has NO face paint.Edited: I somehow forgot the "NO", stupid me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-(dp)- Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 Well, that is stupid that they don't have the face paint now. Obviously they are able to include it, since they did before, and it looks much better with the face paint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Survival79 Posted January 1, 2007 Share Posted January 1, 2007 By the way: September 12, 1998, that Nole has face paint.Actually, it doesn't:Neither do any of these:Then there is this: "If things have gone wrong, I'm talking to myself, and you've got a wet towel wrapped around your head."

Survival79 Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 As noted in the Uni Watch: Back-to-school edition, FSU switched from heat-pressed to sewn-on tackle twill uniform numbers. It also looks like the Chief Osceola logo was updated on the gold pants.November 3, 2007:September 6, 2008: "If things have gone wrong, I'm talking to myself, and you've got a wet towel wrapped around your head."

That looks so much better, patch and numbering included.IT'S ABOUT DAMN TIME!That looks SO MUCH BETTER! Much cleaner appearance. Look like my 'Noles done finally caught up to the other guys in the quality of authenticity! (Of course, it also appears that the 'Noles have taken on the same goofy jersey style/cut/template as the North Carolina Tar Heels, with the sweat-reactive panel thing and the two-tone effect it produces.)SIDE NOTE: looking back at all those pictures pasted up from Getty Images was like a walk down Memory Lane for me...seeing the likes of Peter Warrick, and Travis Minor...and just renewing my love of the garnet and gold.

But even then...it appears to be too far away from the "1".I don't know--after I get out if this AO, I should go tuck myself deep in my sleeping bag back at the rack and stay there til the sun come up again.
