I am so sick of "THE HERD" LOGO
- Thread starter MU ATO
- Start date
Find the irony in the person complains about "the herd" on a "herd fan only" forum.
First it's good marketing. Trademark it as best you can so NDSU or USF don't try to infringe and try to make the herd their thing.
Second , love the thundering herd but name is pretty long and like the short version because it's clean and sexy look.
Third others have stated how many schools have multiple team names in Terps , Heels, Tide,etc. not a big deal but again helps with marketing.
Fourth nothing worse the Neers .
Fifth same people complaint about herd name are probably the same who didn't like the black alternate uniforms or reverting back to the new new Kelly green ...change is hard but let it happen .

No, but Purdue certainly knows what a kelly green M stands for, eh?
I Googled colleges that start with the letter "M," and there are hundreds of them. I'm afraid we need something more than just being green to stand out.
Pretty sure Manhattan uses a kelly or lime green M. I also believe they use Jaspers scrolled across the front.
There may be hundreds of colleges with the letter "M". But, there is ONLY one that can claim to be the "THUNDERING HERD" and that, boys and girls, is BADAZZ all the way!!!
Anyone realize that Manhattan is now using the big M with Manhattan in the center. Maybe it is time to come up with a new logo. Manhattan is being seen on TV a great deal than us.
Impersonation is the greatest form of flattery...WE AIN'T CHANGING A DAMN THING !!!
I was talking about the person whom made the decision to use it exclusively not fans or slums who like it.
I wasn't talking fanboys of "The Herd", my one person comment was about the person who decided they would take it upon themselves to use it and it alone.
I know it's that recognizable and if you think it isn't your clearly wrong. People know who that kelly green M is, especially in the football crazy southeast. Trust me on this, a lot of people recognize that M. When I ask people in the ATL do you see the little M inside the big M with the horns on it, it takes them a few seconds and then they respond, "very cool!" ....which it is, and the new more modern Roman style M with the white and black stripe outline looks nice. I always wonder, WHY doesn't Marshall allow just a helmet sticker without the herd logo stripe in it to be sold for people people to put on their autos? Every other team in the SEC has them and down here everyone uses the helmet sticker on the back of their auto as the most popular choice of showing their support for their school. Why Marshall can't get that I have no idea.
