Little known fact, but prior to settling on Guantanamo, the Pentagon wanted to house terror suspects at War Memorial Stadium.  It was deemed to be cruel and unusual punishment and in violation of the Geneva Convention.

I don't like it either but a lot of teams have a front facing alternate logo now. 

I think we should redo it but not trash the concept.

Nike has done this with all the mascots of the schools they have contracts with, I think.  It's awful.

Thanks for the F Shack.

I have no issue with it...I think there are more important things to focus on.

Mizzou is a Nike school, but I've never seen a front-facing logo from Nike. Would look weird. But Mizzou is pretty all-in on the "oval tiger head" logo, so maybe that's why.

We need to go back old school- the wolfhog doesn't do it for me

Bring back the pantless, sweater wearing hog and the running hog from the 60s & 70's.

It won't be changed. A secondary logo was required by ESPN and the SECN. All teams have a secondary logo now due to TV purposes.

I don't like it but I think that is something Nike came up with not us.

You mean the ones prior to the head-humping hog? I agree.

we could have a secondary logo, just doesn't have to be the front facing.  Our secondary logo ought to be the Hog running through the A

greenEGnHAWGS

I'm fine with it. Its not like its stuck in the middle of out BB courts, FB fields, sides of helmets, etc. As a secondary logo though...yep. Fine by me.

The thing is butt ugly--and has a remarkable similiarity to the Arkansas State Red Wolf, lol.

If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

I wish New Balance or Majestic made football jerseys.  Majestic makes every MLB uniform.  They are always top notch quality.

I'd be ok with UA or Adidas... Majestic is terrific baseball, but I don't think we need to go that far off the spectrum. New Balance sucks.

Wasn't that one outlawed courtesy of the Weapons of Mass Destruction Act?...or something? (See attached vintage pic of son. Ignore the sig.)

I am in the design business—so yes, that makes me an expert—and I have never minded the forward facing hog. It's not as good as our regular running hog (which is great), but I don't understand the hate. The only resemblance I see to the A-State wolf is it's red. Given how ugly some of Nike's design decisions are—many outright terrible—I'm fairly happy with this one. I'd tweak a couple things, but I think it's okay. (Edit, the Star Trek guy is very funny.)

I have also been fond of Popcorn Hog in small doses. But what I do NOT like is the "dog bone" type, with the big first letter/last letter. It's ugly and it's awkward—see jvanhorn's avatar.

Get rid of it, and also put the slobbering Razorbacks back on the basketball court!
Basketball is back, baseball always, football was a dumpster fire once again..... but as the phoenix rose from the ashes, BMF Petrino has risen again!!! Lots to look forward to.  <br /><br />As the rain falls, I realize, that some where out there, some one, is wearing a mask while they shower............

Yup, these new ones suck.

I bought a bunch once but gave them all away.  My daughter wanted one the other day and I couldn't find one. Do they still make them?

Leon Wilkeson told me he wore the one I gave him at a Riverfest show.  Leon was Lynyrd Skynyrd's original bass player.  He wore a different hat onstage for every Skynyrd show he ever played.  Interesting guy.

That's the one.  I thin there a few variations over time, but they were ubiquitous for decades at Razorback games.

it could have been okay with a few tweaks, for instance, what is with the gigantic under bite?  from the perspective, you shouldn't be able to see the bottom lip.  second is of course the warf ridges.  there has to be a better way to do that, the tusks aren't quite right either.  I get the feeling that whoever approved it barely glanced at it before signing off.

Just like Nolan's first year Razorback jerseys - some things have to be eradicated.
To add a "sig line" or "signature line": Go to your "profile" then go to "modify profile" then scroll down to where it says "Signature" and type in what you want it to say and then click on "change profile". That's it, you're done. Your sig line will only show up on your first post on each page.

Sorry, I meant New Balance shoes, not jerseys.  They do not suck.

This should be the new AD's first three action items...in this order:
1:  Put slobbering hog back on the floor in Bud
2:  Retire Klingon Hog
3:  Hire a new coach
This is my word, and as such is beyond contestation.
