I thought we had ditched the “Mississippi State” banner wordmark? Still appear to be on the new basketball unis.

Makes sense.

If I recall correctly, the Banner motif started with basketball and the men’s team went to the ‘96 Final Four wearing Banner Warmups…

Shortly thereafter the Banner got a promotion.

Yet another MSU tradition: take what a team wears and does very well in and flood the other athletics teams with the design.

Thank the Lord.

While we're at it, put it back on the 50 yard line. I'll let you interlocking guys have the helmet. There's a ton of teams who have a different helmet logo than their official logo - LSU, Alabama, South Carolina, Florida, Florida State.

M over S and script State stays with baseball.

Seems like this should be the end of the debate. Let's stick with this stuff.

It’s been pointed out that these were probably done before we made the branding switch. Hopefully this is the last glimpse of the worst logo in sports.

Nah. We’ll see the worst logo in Sports on Thanksgiving…

Banner M should be nicknamed "Championship M". We have won more in all sports wearing the "Banner M" than any logo in our history.

In reply to above..... "Banner M" first appeared on the game uniform of the 1996 Final 4 basketball team. It was also at Midcourt that year. In addition the warm ups.

Yes we are certainly big enough to have THREE brands because we are huge. Bama only has one. Idiots. They are small.
