I am always ready for Hog Ball!

The football season has no bearing on my excitement for basketball season to begin. 

I know I'm in the minority, but I rank Hog basketball above Hog football every day of the week and twice on Sundays. Has a lot to do with the era in which I grew up, but for me personally there is just nothing better than watching the Hogs run up and down the court!
Woo Pig Sooiee!  Can't wait for the season to tip off.  I'm hoping for a much more competitive team this season.

I loved ours from this year, but part of re-branding is standardizing the font, so the basketball unis were a casualty. I like these as well, though. That font is sharp.

Not that big of a change from last year.

Hogeration

Love the uniforms.  Not a fan of the secondary logo.  I think the Houndstooth version of a front facing hog (on back of a shirt I bought several years ago) is a cooler look.

Hogimus Prime

Love them, they just are not as cool the Apex uniforms

that forward facing Hog looks like a word we can't say here. It's so poorly designed. Considering it's Nike it was probably drawn by some 6 or 7 year old Sri Lankan slave child "prodigy".

The Apex uniforms had too much all over it.

I wouldn't call him a "prodigy".

Wild Bill Hog

I've always preferred the uniforms we've worn when we've outscored our opponents.

The Uni's are OK.  The "Klingon Hog" or "Grey-haired Rollie Fingers Hog" sucks arse and is typical Jeff Long short-man's complex crap cheese.

God, I hope no one listens to you on the radio with this b.s.
Quote from: Michael BernalWhat's your favorite Arkansas tradition?
"I can't be cliché and say 'Call the Hogs,' but I think I have to.  That's just something that sets our university apart.  When you're out on the field and everyone in the stadium stands up, it's amazing.  Even when we're at a football or basketball game, just to see that many people around you doing the same thing for you when you're on the field or for the other guys who are playing, it's pretty awesome."

The snout looks more like a cow's, and the 4 point tusk is, well, fubar is all that comes to mind... I'm cool with the rest of the Uni's.

Sorry Iceman I respect your basketball knowledge but that design just plain stinks. It should never be used to represent the Hogs. Seriously compare it to all the other Hog emblems and it comes up lacking.

Even worse Asu fans are laughing at how much it reminds them of their Red Wolves emblem and calling us copy cats.

I noticed that there wasn't a red uniform for the men's bball team.  Does this mean we won't be using one, and the anthracite is now going to replace a cardinal one?  I loved the cardinal uniform for women's bball, so I'm hoping the men's team gets one as well.  I like the gray unis, just not sure about using them instead of a cardinal uniform.

Also, it would seem that if Qualls is modeling next years uniform, it's likely he's not going anywhere.  Or is that reading too much into it?

The_Iceman

The only change from last year seems to be the letter and number font. The rest of the overall design will stay the same.

It's not the best. I certainly won't buy it over the running hog. But it does give us the benefit of having a symmetrical logo that can be centered, as well as giving us the trademark over any other attempts at making a forward facing hog.

As long as it is used sparingly and not plastered on billboards and signs across the stadium and facilities, I'm ok with it.

My first thought as well. Hopefully that signals that he'll be here next season. We're coming up on a month since our last game and he seems to still be very much a part of the team. I think we're safe at this point but anything could happen. Would have been a huge blow to lose him.

the more i look at the logo, it is awful.

i cannot believe that is the best a professional designer can come up with. also, i cannot believe our administrators went for it.

It's definitely not Nike's best work, but as long as it doesn't figure too prominently into how we're marketed, I'm okay with it. I do like the new jerseys and uniforms, though.

You folks do realize that football and logos exist beyond the borders of Arkansas, right? And that Arkansas State didn't invent the forward-facing logo?

Here are some others that are similar:









I think ours looks most like the UConn and Chicago Bulls logos with the same downward slope of the face.

Not only that, but those schools are adding front facing logos. I think a lot of it has to do with being symmetrical.
