TFoA Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Holy , where'd you find this?Well, as a MSU fan, this is definitely interesting.I have to say, 1A & 1B are what I want them to keep, and 2J, 2K, and 2M I wouldn't mind being added. Again, wow @ you finding this. I'll definitely be taking more looks at this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, wow @ you finding this. I'll definitely be taking more looks at this.There are the use of colors which these don't show us, but I agree with 1A and 1B to stay, but I liked to see the Sherill era "MSU" to still be on helmets. Overall, I think they may be asking a focus group of too many concepts on branding. I only like 2C and 2N. 2F is too close to the MU Mizzou logo which still may be used.

dbackdiehard17 Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Wow, 2 d would be awesome... I wish I could see it in color... some really cool stuff, but does this mean Miss St. is going to get a new identity soon, or are these just proposals drawn up?

Cujo Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 This is very early it appears. What do you guys think?MOD EDIT: Artwork removed at artist's request.Letter D is absolute money!It doesn't appear that Mississippi State is going in that direction, but I think it would have made one hell of logo for the Bulldogs.

statebully Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 but does this mean Miss St. is going to get a new identity soon, or are these just proposals drawn up?I've talked to some people close to the university that definitely "believe" the school is taking proposals and looking for a change. The new AD came in just a few months ago. So, YES i do believe a change will be occurring eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
statebully Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 MOD EDIT: Artwork removed at artist's request.I like sort of like O, P, & Q without just an 'M' there...put the bulldog over the MState and it would be pretty nice.Is the bulldog mean enough looking, though?

Jigga Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 Great find! I absolutely love seeing stuff like this. For the Block M, I like them all except G. I hope they are leaning toward A/B though.For the Bulldogs, I hope they go with E or J. But if they must have the name with the logo, C is beautious.

But if they must have the name with the logo, C is beautious.How in the hell did i miss this???Man...this is some good stuff. And Greg...you sound like me. Block A and B look the best to me, as well as bulldogs E or J.True, it may not be the most ferocious-looking bulldog in the world, but why does it have to be? Bulldog "E" just looks like it was raised up in the 'Sip. And for a side profile, "J" matches perfectly. As for the "M" logos, I like what they have now, and the first two still hold true to what they have now while also looking more modern.I really do hope, though, that M-State doesn't lose it with the inevitable new uniforms that are coming with this rebranding. Any kind of extraneous piping--or hell, any pipin at all--just wouldn't look right for Mississippi State. As it stands now, i think their sets are probably up there with some of the best in college football, period. (May just be the colors, though--or the fact that they are one of the few squads who all actually wear socks full-time.)Images? *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 MOD EDIT: Artwork removed at artist's request.I really think 2E has a very unique and bold look that would make for a great alternate logo.Bucky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeeperEUSC Posted July 20, 2008 Share Posted July 20, 2008 For as many design studios come out with tons of concepts that all look like absolute (often even becoming the final product), whoever is doing these has done an excellent job, there are some I love, quite a few I like, and very few that I would consider a legitimate downgrade.

ferrousoxide66 Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Who's responsible for these? Most of those bulldog designs are awfully-template. ZzzzzzJust boring, awful garbage that continues to pollute the college logo landscape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackjack76 Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 the full front head .... option E... reminds me of the Steelhounds logo.. could it be Bosack working on these?Let's see...SEC 75th logo (check)...multiple collegiate team brands (check)...multiple collegiate anniversary/championship marks (check)....If it walks like a duck, and talks like a duck...I'd vote for "yes."

RedEye Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Personally I think Bosack's stuff is some of the better branding out there today. You can always count on his stuff looking clean, accurate, strong and unique. A lot of others try to design in a similar fashion and fail. You don't have to like the style but you can't say it blows... for crying out loud... the guy has proven himself a more than talented designer... making a statement like that is asinine and juvenile... and maybe a bit of jealousy?Sounds like you have been talking with Tom.

It all just offends me as a aesthete. It may sit well with your tastes, but to my palate, it offends. And it offends mightily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
