McNeese State Thread

As I. I always liked their logo eventhough the State of Wyoming forced them to change it since it looked so much like ours.

The State of Wyoming owns the famous bucking bronco logo, not the universuty.

McNeese fans,

do you guys use the logo at all, for anything, anymore?

If you notice on our websites, we now use a logo with the horse's front legs kicking up instead of one with the hind legs up as in the Montana logo.

Changing worked out well for us as we sold a lot of merchandise with the new logo.

No disrespect taken. BTW, Wyoming hired Montana's l;ast head coach back in 2003, Joe Glenn. His tenure at UW has been lukewarm at best. No conference titles, 1 victory over BYU, 2 over CSU, and our first bowl win in over 30+ years (2004 Las Vegas Bowl).

Our biggest problem: our idiot of a Offensive coordinator!!!!!!!

From my understanding they wont know until April, but that is not for sure. I can imagine that they are keep Kirkland and Ali on the roster until they have to remove them. I think there is a good chance that they will get granted another yr of football!!

Kinda reminds me of Oklahoma's womens basketball coach, Sherri Coale (sp?). She can straight from the high school ranks. She was coaching Norman (OK) High before she got the OU job.
