![]() I would rather go without stripes for this type of design. Or if there must be stripes, then let them be modernized like Cola-Cock mentioned.

![]() The "blind emboss" treatment done on one of the Boise State helmet designs might work well to give the logo an added degree of definition.

![]() And that's a lot more important than the "traditionalists" probably realize. Who cares if all of the long-time fans/alumni like the logo the way it is. I'm willing to bet the oversized logo sand1 posted without the block c is more appealing to the current players and RECRUITS than the one we currently have. So if something as simple as dropping the block c and making the gamecock oversized can help even the least little bit with sparking interest in recruits, is that not worth sacrificing a little piece of tradition?

![]() That's what I've been trying to tell people as well, that the current logo isn't the one we've always had, so changing or updating it wouldn't be nearly as big of a deal as some are trying to make it seem.

![]() This is very cool. Only thing I would say is Garnet helmet. I'm an 80's man myself and love the Garnet helmet from those days like many posters on here.

It's amazing to me when people ask for things we did like four decades ago. Yancey tried to point this out but no one got his sarcasm. From 1966-67 (you can buy one on eBay) Some of y'all should brush up on your Gamecock football history LOL!

![]() Why are so many people completely enamored with a generic block letter? The whole point is that the gamecock on the logo is what makes it unique, so why not drop the clunky letter and enlarge the part of the logo we would really like for people to recognize? Geez!

![]() I don't like it with just the bird, I had that logo on my truck last year, switched to the the Block C, looks so much better!

![]() But let me ask you something about what you had/have on your truck. Is it larger than what appears on the football helmets? There are a lot of people who claim the current logo is unique and stands out when the team is on the field/TV. But when I see it on the helmets, it just looks like a big blob of garnet and black. The only reason it's recognizable is because I already know what it is, but I'm not convinced the majority of the country has that same advantage. Since the gamecock is the part that is actually unique, make it significantly larger and have it featured without the letter so it will definitely be obvious what it is to people outside of the fanbase. And since the university has expressed an interest in sort of rebranding, dropping the letter would be a relatively significant yet simple change that will keep with tradition by having the bird stay the same, but it will also modernize the look.
