Re: Any doubters on the new I State logo?

I'm still not excited with it, maybe it'll grow on me. I didn't care for our current logo (mid 90s til now) but it grew on me.

I'm still a fan of the walking CY and/or the leaning CY like on the CY Ride signs around campus (or that used to be around campus in the late 90's)

Re: Any doubters on the new I State logo?

My favorite memory of being asked that happened a few years ago at the Big 12 Tournament in KC. We were eating breakfast in a room full of big time Texas boosters with Coach Barnes walked in. He made a comment that he wanted to know where we got "that bird" in our logo. We told him we would explain it when he told us where they came up with that shade of poop brown.

I would guess most people are telling the story that prior to the Northwestern game that we became the "Cyclones" in we were the Cardinals...which is NOT true. Cardinal was our school color but Cy and the Cardinal are relatively new arrivals both occuring in the 1950's when ISU decided it needed a mascot. People usually do not ask me why the bird is in a tornado so much as simply "what the h#&^ is your logo supposed to be?" That, I will be glad to be done with. Of course most of the people I deal with are not in state or in the Big12.

I love the new logo and have started buying shirts...I am just really happy the blue is out of the logo! I really hated that and imo the I-STATE logo can go on any color you want...NO MORE NAVY BLUE IN IT!!!!
