footballfiji Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 Troy State's new logos were leaked a day ago. Apparently they are changing their name from TROY STATE TROJANS to just TROY TROJANS. I'm not sure how to post pics but here is a link to the message board.http://www.inside99.net/cgi-bin/webbbs_config.pl?read=78415http://www.inside99.net/cgi-bin/webbbs_config.pl?read=78414http://www.gotroystate.com/trojanboard.htmlhttp://p205.ezboard.com/ftroystatesportsfr...icID=5273.topic Whatcha Think?

hrivnak Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 Why is it "TroJans?"I like the old logo better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artvandelay Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 Wow, it looks like Phoenix finally did something different for a change... oh wait, no they didn't. Where have I seen that letter style before? Hmmm, let's see. Oh yeah, every other logo Phoenix has done. Blah... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittunited Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 The subject header on the first link--"By the Power of Grayskull!"--summed it up perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideRight Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 Me personally, I would have gone with that same guy, but standing around, looking at a big horse with a puzzled expression on his face. Why are there so many teams called Trojans (who lose the war) but none called the Achaeans (not sure of spelling) the winners? Spartans isn't the same.

artvandelay Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 hey quadi, pass dat zoloft You should check out the song "Zoloft" on the new Ween album (entitled Quebec). I think you'll enjoy it, maybe even adopt it as your theme song...Give me that Z-O-L-O-F-TGive me a gripMake me love me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbasalmon Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 If they were going to go for so blantant a tie-in to the movie, why don't they just slap Brad Pitt's head on the helmet. However, if the stuff in the message board links is true (using the sword and shield only on the uniforms) this might actually have some potential FOR THE UNIFORMS. The logo is still purely asinine.

Steve-O Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 I personally like the logo. Although it really is another Phoenix Design cookiecutter type logo. None the less I dont think it really looks all that bad. The wordmark included logo is the better of the bunch definitely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STL FANATIC Posted May 6, 2004 Share Posted May 6, 2004 To tell you the truth, not know what they had before, I like this. The mascot guy is a little weird, but good. The wordmark one looks better except that it has the GreenEville syndrome... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacker12 Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 I'd be kinda upset if I was going to Troy State right now... Nope, nope & nope! Be careful who you say that to. I've been accepted to Troy for the fall semester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideRight Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 Quick question again (after my one about the Achaeans):Is Troy State a historically Black University? If not, my bad, but I had the thought in my head that it was, and if it is, it seems kind of funny that their logo would be a white guy (a Turk?). Not much weirder than a bunch of white/black/hispanic NFL players calling themselves Redskins, but still kind of odd. The connection is obvious (Troy-Trojans) but that they would go with a personified Trojan instead of a helmet, sword, shield, horse (ouch!) etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artvandelay Posted May 7, 2004 Share Posted May 7, 2004 Not much weirder than a bunch of white/black/hispanic NFL players calling themselves Redskins, but still kind of odd. So what are you saying, all the players on the teams have to be a representative of their mascot? Are all the Houston Texans from Texas? Do you have to dig for gold before you tryout for the 49ers? I would hardly call Joe Morris a "Giant." He was only 5'4". That's just silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
