it will look fine, unless there is a new uni they aren't showing us  :eek:

they made a point in that vid to show only 1 stripe on the helmet, wouldn't make sense to have that with multiple stripes on the jerseys, would it?  :Wha:

If a link is provided I will rethink my position.  Porky also had Jim Dickey take the names off the back of the jerseys after an especially poor performance back in the 80s.  Maybe we should do that too...

Welp. The font I HAND created was actually the one you see on KSU_Fan's avatar. Used as well on the athletic department's promotions called "Makin' Tracks." This one (and the old helmet Tom disparages) are more what happens when hand made artwork goes through the helmet vendor's process. I'm a Powercat guy.
Still, it's fun to be validated these many years later. Go Cats.

I went to bed thinking about this last night. I realized that, although my body is failing me and I don't have much longer on this Earth, my actions still matter. I vowed to myself that I will treat all fonts equally from now on - especially the fonts that remind me my days are numbered. Life is too short, y'all.

2. People losing their crap over it are  :lol:
3. While I don't love the Powercat as a logo in and of itself (it's fine), it absolutely is synonymous with success full KSU football and looks GREAT on a helmet
4. People clamoring for the death or the Powercat are worse than the people losing their crap over the Cats helmet

The Powercat logo is becoming trashy and played out and should be retired so we can go back to the Willie mascot logo.

I’m not advocating for the death of the powercat because I LOVE when Mrs. SB tries to draw it on my birthday cards. But, I do recall in the past talking with people from other states who aren’t affiliated with KSU Purplecats U. in any way, and they were all like, “....you call it what? A powercat? Lolololol, what a stupid made up word that sounds extremely 90’s-y.” And I’ve asked graphic designers before what they think of it and they all lawl at the way it looks. Also my best bud grew up in MHK and went to Cats U., and after like 25 years of looking at it, I had to break the news to him that what he thought was the eye is actually its ear. Even those of us who love it can admit that as a logo, it’s pretty weird.

So, a powercat  recap:
—Extremely 90s name
—kinda LOL as a design
—no one knows what it is or what it’s supposed to be
—I still love it personally but realize it’s kinda laughable
—I still love it but also welcome alternate jerseys every once in a while because I’m not a stupid tuck
—The iteration of the powercat that has flames coming out of the back of it absolutely is super rough ridin' trashy. So no, the powercat in and of itself isn’t trashy, but what dumb tuck hicks who definitely have goatees do to it CAN make it trashy.

I think we should compile a chart similar to the evolution charts that show us going from cavemen to upright humans. You know the one. But it starts with the Iowa Hawkeye and then goes to the powercat and then turns into the Minnesota Wild logo and then the current Texas State Bobcat logo. (And any others that are Hawkeye offshoots.)

Of course it is. It’s very 90s-y. Like I’m imagining those posters from the early 90s where Russ Campbell and Dirk Ochs and Quentin Neujahr are like standing around the weight room shirtless with chains draped over their shoulders looking all tuff and roided out, the poster says, like, THE 700 CLUB. And the poster’s sponsors in the bottom corner are Q103.9, Mini-Mart, and Wildcat Spirit. That poster, to me, is the poster version of the word powercat.

Hellcats is not a bad suggestion.  A 'Hellcat' is a oil producing newly drilled well; which was a common thing in Kansas.  Kansas is also one of the largest oil producing states. 
Only problem would be it wouldn't represent wildcats, but instead, oilfield roughnecks.

the powercat is the macarena of logos. But you know what? I was (and still am) one of the boys who said "que soy buena". feels great. will always love the powercat. Only thing i didn't like was the first iteration of the new willie head. We went from a yellow eyed feral beast that made little 6 yr old BAC cry (my parents love retelling that story) to a mouse sort of thing? I think over the next few seasons they kind of got it cleaned up but man that first version was oof.

Then you can also admit that the players would have been 1000x more excited if that rough ridin badass Sailor Willie was on that helmet.

Then think of that glorious and highly discernible clearly indicative of K-State Helmet sporting badass Sailor Willie sitting on SVP's desk.   Instead we got an nondescript 'Cats helmet that only K-State fans recognize and 25 other fan bases had to do a double take thinking it might be them, with about 80% texting a friend telling them that SVP had their teams helmet on his desk.

not sure where i said 18 year olds watch SVP or sportscenter, i guess you are of the opinion all publicity is bad publicity.  stop pitting this up granddax.

I said nothing about any publicity being bad, I'm just enjoying you getting all  :curse: because not everybody likes GenerO 'Cats script and thinks a better alt logo is available.  I'm also  :lol: at the fact that you're playing the excitement card when you know in your dumb little head that after 30 years everybody is looking for some changes. 

You keep trying, tho.

Dax, absolutely no one thinks Cats is the best possible alternative. No one. Stop pitting this up. Other people just realize this is only the beginning, but placating the tucks by gently guiding them into the deep end for the first time. They’ve been comfy in the shallow end for years. Relax, bud. You’ll get your Sailor Willie eventually, and we’ll all love it, just like we’ll love all the others that eventually come out, too.

i agree lib7. When i was a freshman i bought purple hat with a white interlocked KS on the front (and it wasn't the blocky letters it was the curvy ones) and i kind of took it for granted b/c i had seen them since always but they discontinued the hat so like, every couple years i'll search for it to see if by some chance it exists somewhere but i never find it in my size.

That is the only cats hat I will wear b/c it was perfect.

Well, they better promote the crap out of Sailor Willie.   None of this, "oh, but we already know that's available", yeah, it's a available on a couple of things.

I'm also pissed that 'sans additional official logos, I could have "designed" my own 'Cats gear, put it on Pantone 268+ or hex code #512888 and then watched everyone lose their minds and spend their $$

Sailor Willie is fine.  But I agree with MIR that it would look horrible on a helmet/uniform.  If it is to ever be on a helmet it should just be the head and hat.

It still boggles my mind that dax and others think "cats" being simple is some kind of negative.  The simplicity of the design is why it looks so good on everything.  It's a lot like the powercat in that way.

I mean, there really isn't anything to debate here.  We introduce the helmets that were used when we were the worst football program in the history of the college football, and then we go out and lose a home game where were were 2 touchdown favorites.

... passing the time while the wife finishes watching "The God Account" so I can flip to SNF...

Olds like me equate the script Cats with darker times pre-Snyder and the losing that came with it.  Other long time fans equate alternates with disrespecting Bill Snyders legacy by removing the powercat from the helmet 1-2 times a year.  Tradition and stuff.

Having only witnessed 3 winning seasons prior to my 32nd birthday I'd rather not tempt the football gods by rolling in a helmet that symbolized the low point of KState football.

It is also the least attractive of our throwback options (KSU letters, K State letters, mean willie, Cartoon willie, old timey wildcat head, etc) IMHO. 

This is just me... Either do an alternate (ie- camo powercat on white helmet) or authentic throwback (script Cats on purple helmet with double white stripe) don't bastardize it with some cross over part alternate, part throwback.

I am not anti alternate, just not a fan of the script Cats. I also dialed it back once it became a real possibility I was going to have to meet Porky Morgan at the Ernie Barrett statue before kick off.

Here's hoping Gene sees fit to roll out the Stanbot era helmets for KU next year... back when we really burned it down in Aggieville.

This is where I will let the posters who never learned cursive speak to all of the positives of the alternate uniform and helmet craze...

They look generic because they are. One illustrator, Arthur Evans, is responsible for most of them.
