My biggest issue is I really like "The Paint" to be a solid color. So, when you're inside The Paint, you know it. I went ahead and put "BullyHumpin'M" logo at mid-court because Im expecting that anyway. Kept it simple with "MISSISSIPPI STATE" at both ends continuing with "BULLDOGS" in the corner. I used an old "THE HUMP" logo I did years ago (reflects our current brand better than the one from the 90's). I do like the trend of contrasting wood stains, so I incorporated that it. I also like the shape of MS behind mid-court logo, but, as we all know, thats been taken already by the Bad News Bears, so now I think thats a ridiculous idea. As you can see, I kept it pretty simple. I didn't wanna go all "Oregon" on it. So here's my only concept. Subtle, but STATE.

Excellent work as always. I love that look. Wasn't sure how I felt about the Bulldog at half court, but after seeing this I think I could really get used to it.

Love the new Hump logo, and I'm a huge fan of the painted key.

I like it, but the lane is NBA width

Did the NCAA vote to widen the lane this year?

Let me first say...I think you're a very good graphic designer. And I like the concept. But I have a couple things. First thing that jumps to me is you have one of the Hump logos and Bulldogs written upside down. I understand the thought of allowing each side of the arena to see logos, but the name of the game is TV. More people will be watching from home than that side of the arena. So all logos should be seen upright on tv. I'm not sure, but I think the lanes you've drawn are NBA lanes. I don't think women and men have separate lanes so the two-tone might not work. Not sure if the smaller lanes would be wide enough for two tone. Maybe put the SEC logo at the free throw lines (conference probably has to have marks somewhere). And I'd take out the Mississippi state logos under the Hump logo. Too busy. I hope I don't sound like too much of a douche, because I do like the concept.

I really like the Humpin Bully at mid court, and I wouldn't have thought I would. Also the big "MISSISSIPPI STATE" on both ends looks great.

Only thing i would say is that the script logo in the paint looks a bit busy and odd in that it faces opposite the baseline text. But that's a minor criticism, and it might work in reality.

Well done. I agree on the painted paint.

But where are the cowbells?** I really like the Hump insignia, regardless if it belongs to you.
