i wasn't in favor of changing the hog at midcourt.  but after seeing those pictures, i think it looks pretty good.  it'll never be the slobber hog, but i like it.

WOO_PIG_SOOIE

I like the new hog on the FOOTBALL field, but the slobber hog is my pick for the BASKETBALL court.

does anyone have any pictures of it?

I understand the tradition and love for the slobberin' hog, but dang that thing looked like it was hit by a Mack truck and left for dead on the road.  Very few people still understood the significance of it and everyone outside the state though it looked dead.  I'm so glad we have the new logo.

I've been going to games since I was 3 or 4, so I have a good understanding of "mouthbreathing" Hog (as I prefer to characterize it) and its traditional place on the floors of Barnhill and BWA.  I'll be sad to not see it at half court this year, but not because I loved it, but b/c it has always been there.  That's my only reason for missing it--just because it won't be there for the first time in my life.  I've really never found mouthbreathing Hog that attractive a picture or logo.  It was an okay-looking cartoonish figure.  I didn't know any different b/c it was the only court logo I'd "known."

However, I like the new/classic Hog so much better.  Perhaps new/classic Hog is "too clean-looking" or "too generic" or "lacks personality" or appears "too plain" or "too indistinct".  Perhaps true on all accounts.  But for whatever reason, right or wrong, I love new/classic Hog.  I've loved it since its debut.  I can't get enough Hog gear w/ the new/classic Hog.  There, I admitted it.

I'll miss mouthbreathing Hog for his presence not for his likeness.  Farewell mouthbreathing Hog.  You shall find a place in logo heaven (can't say the same for that dastardly popcorn Hog).

Dude, are you even reading the thread you are posting in?

NO!  I'm talking about the OLD court, with the SLOBBER HOG...   I didn't think it was that hard to understand... I said "my pick is for the SLOBBER HOG on the basketball court, does anyone have any pics of it"...

Are you reading my post?

They should have changed it long ago.

ANY PICTURES YET?!?
This implies sir, that you are asking for pics of the "new" Hog, given that most people that have been to a game in the last 1/2 century have seen the mouthbreathing Hog before.  Given that very few people have seen "new" Hog, since it was just put down on the court in the last few weeks, one would assume you were asking to see pics of it.

YES, ON THAT POST I WAS TALKING ABOUT THE NEW LOGO, BUT ON A LATER POST, THEN ONE YOU ASKED IF I WAS READING MY OWN POST, MY QUESTION WAS:

"I like the new hog on the FOOTBALL field, but the slobber hog is my pick for the BASKETBALL court.
does anyone have any pictures of it?

heard jeff long say on the radio, that they will be up in time for conference play

Would have liked to keep the slobbering hog. It will always be my favorite even though the new one does look more professional

I'm with you on this!  yeah it looks more professional, but the Slobbering Hog is what we have known for so many years!  I'm going to miss it!

by the way, what happened to the +1 , -1 ???

lookinupthehill

Methinks it disappeared shortly after the game on Saturday due to the rash of opinions that would be forthcoming.  This way the system didn't get overloaded and rampant smiting was spared. 

but that's just a guess.  ;)

The only question that really matters at this point is can Rotnei make it rain from the snout?

That will be the only way I accept this new carpetbagging campaign against tradition.

We've had it with 1 hit wonders coming in, making posts reeking of wanton jackwagonry and then not doing anything about it.

WOO_PIG_SOOIE

SO LETS HEAR WHAT YOU THINK.  "IF" YOU HAD YOUR CHOICE WOULD YOU BRING BACK THE SLOBBERING HOG, OR KEEP THE NEW ONE?!?

I VOTE SLOBBERING HOG!

running hog.  mr slobber was good and all but it seems that the running hog is our nationally recognized logo, you see it more than the others.  besides, slobber hog needs to sit down and take a shot of oxegen.

To me the only real concern is why does it look like the "dog bone" hogs are still on the scoreboard.

I thought TYTWH's reason for doing away with the slobbering hog was for commercial recognition reasons? That would be a shite exception to his reasoning.

They're not, they were replaced with the "Classic" hog.

NATEHOGG216

I really liked the slobbering hog, but I LOVE the classic hog.  I LOVE the idea of TRUELY branding that logo and sticking with it.  we are lucky enough to have a great and unique mascot that NO OTHER school has.  let's brand the heck out of it and only have ONE version of it.  great job long, great job.

Just because the Crash Test Dummies were good at hitting a brick wall didn't mean they were good drivers.

Hogjammin

I thought I would hate it, but now seeing the court it looks pretty sharp.  I still would prefer the slobbering hog because its retro and it sets us apart from what other schools do.

stormyhog

at least the popcorn snorting hog is basically gone, isn't it?
