So maybe I was right about the popcorn hog replacement
Posted on 3/3/14 at 7:57 pm to wmr
so..I think its going to be a number of things...official release of stadium expansion. new uniform designs with consistency between all sports...mostly traditional looks in football...mcfadden style...but with new alternative colors to use on special occasions and..a new alternate logo

Replace popcorn hog with this beauty

We will probably get some hokey secondary logo like Georgia did.
The outline is only there for a couple seconds and you can't make out many details, but it def looks like a hog head.
Is it a clue?

It looks like a reverse outline of the popcorn Hog.

Yeah, that took me by surprise too. It's got to be a new logo. I'm absolutely going berserk if it's a logo change.
(Warning: rant forthcoming)
Jeebus H., what's with all the small time shite like logo changes, color changes, uniform design changes, etc. That's bush league crap for a team like A-state. I bow to no one in my admiration for tAdmiral, but can our athletic department please stop acting like Hog sports were invented in like 2008 and that we are bereft of history and tradition.
ETA -- if it's just announcing that we're retiring popcorn Hog or something of that ilk, I'm fine with it. If we're tinkering with our stuff for the umpteenth time, I'll be sharting bricks.

Maybe its the stadium expansion being formally announced.
Maybe, but it wouldn't make sense to package that announcement with baseball and track imagery.

Idt we should ever "retire" any logos. Maybe just stop using certain ones for certain things...but use them elsewhere. ..Like shirts and what not

Have they announced who the basketball facility is to named after?
I'm looking at you Joe Johnson and your max contract.

A standard font is a good thing. We have never really had that.
Although I thought we were supposedly going to use the typeface that the Sr. Walk names are written in at some point.
Now that I realize how many different fonts we have used, it sort of bothers me. Standardizing your font makes "Arkansas" and "Razorbacks" look like logos of their own.
Kind of like how Ole Miss has been forced to brand themselves almost exclusively with this:
Except for us it will just be another recognizable type of logo/branding.

I haven't heard that in forever.
wmr - I like the font in #1 on the bball jersey.
But I like more "old school" looking unis. Idk, they just seem more traditional/official/important/serious, etc. Sometimes the fonts & logos can get too comic strip looking, imo.

Agreed. I like the blocky fonts, and they seem to be using those more. I hated the old font in the end zones at RRS and was glad it wasn't kept when we went to turf. They seem to be going with the block font more now, though the football uniforms looked different the last few years.

I would expect that whatever font they develop, it will go in the endzones at RRS. It might be part of the big reveal.

Georgia and Florida just went through this exact same process with Nike. A-State would never get this kind of attention from Nike.
