No. We aren’t Miss. State. We aren’t Ms State. We are Mississippi State.

Wrong. We are all of those things. I want our jerseys to look the best they possibly can. That means not being weird and insecure about our name and insisting we put one of the longest names in football on the front of our jersey. Does LSU put Louisiana State University on the front of their jerseys? No cause that would be dumb as 17. Yet it isn't dumb as 17 for us to put Mississippi State University on the front of our jerseys?? It's stupid and you've had your way for a decade now. Time to go back to being smart again and having better looking jerseys.

Because LSU is known as LSU by practically everyone on planet earth. The only place you see Louisiana State is their diplomas. People don’t call us “Miss State” and “MSU” has been hijacked nationally by Michigan State. We are Mississippi State and we should be consistent and concise on branding as such.

I propose a compromise. “Missippi State” on the front!!

Seriously though, no way on Miss. State! I guess we should get “smart” and bring back templeton to be AD as well..🙄

Open your ears sometime and you'll discover everyone just calls us State or MSU in the south. Who gives a **** about Michigan State. I do not concede MSU to them. They can't have it.

Give it a break!! Darla Muffins is gone, and just b/c we got a new coach does not mean we get to change jersey's & stuff!!!

I'm pretty sure we have a marketing department that spends great deals of time solely on these things and with addidas

on the front of the jerseys. We've ran with the Mississippi State banner for a decade now. Retire it please and go back to Miss State or MSU on the front.

Fifteen years is a long enough break for ya bud. Try making that our only baseball jerseys on the front and see how many people ***** about it. Well it's the same damn thing for football and basketball. It'd be one thing if it was just an optional jersey but no y'all had to make it every single jersey we get in those two sports. We have awesome baseball uniforms and we give zero ***** about worrying about branding and marketing the entire name of Mississippi State University for baseball yet somehow it becomes the most important aspect for out football and basketball ones. It's 17ing stupid.

Nope.

I was in school for the Sherrill glory years, but these are our best jerseys ever (not pants). I wish Adidas had stopped messing with them, and hold out hope they'll eventually realize they should revert.

I am McCready on this one. I like Mississippi State. Using Miss. State makes it feel like we are conceding Mississippi to OM or are just too lazy to make it look good on a jersey. I’m probably being dramatic, but I feel we should use Mississippi any chance we get. Show pride in our state any chance we get and make those that attend MSU have pride in our state.

Since Michigan St is most people's "MSU" we should push "State"

Yeah, there's probably like 20 schools known as "State" to some group of people, but we're the only power 5 conference school without another "State" in the conference (No, LSU doesn't count, as they never use it).

Nope. That is my favorite brand mark of all the new one. Mississippi State!

What about we show some consistency for a change. We've invested a lot into the banner M-State and Mississippi State logos. It looks good and people recognize it. Let's not 17 with it.

15 years isn't consistent enough for you? Sorry the current uniforms aren't iconic enough to be our permanent ones for all eternity.

How many SEC schools have changed their logo in the last 15 years? Missouri has. Florida is sometimes using an F helmet now. Maybe a slight tweak or 2 at Vandy or Kentucky. That's about it.

these are the best looking jerseys and we should compleatly go back to them exactly or as best as adidas can. We can still use the interlocking MSU, just not the exact one Nike made.

Also the current mississippi state with the banner is a terrible logo. It looked bad on the basketball court, and it looks worse on both the men's and women's basketball jerseys.

We can use the Nike logo. Patents expire if you don't use them. Nike hasn't used it in almost twenty years. That patent been expired.

This is the logo I wish we would bring back if that's the case. It's the best damn logo we have IMO

Maybe with Moorhead being a baseball guy, he is willing to entertain interlocking MS on the helmet...if it looks odd, just scrap the idea

just not that M-banner style... to Croomy and bulky. The current one (09-now) is great

The baseball interlocking MS on a maroon helmet look good I think. May be strange to see at first but I think it would be good

Well it wouldn’t be a patent because it isn’t an invention. It would be a copyright if anything. Apparently a copyright can last for up to 120 years. Sounds like we are SOL unless we can buy that copyright from Nike.

Lots of info here on legal zoom: https://www.legalzoom.com/knowledge/copyright/faq
