Interesting that 65% are for a name change. That's a pretty solid score even with a low sample size.Kung Wu say, man who read woman like book, prefer braille!Comment

If it is the University of Wichita then it is UW (it will just be ala Evansville EU vs UE). Don't like it.Originally posted by Shock Top View Post
I think you are wasting all build-up of branding that you have accomplished through baseball in the 90's and now with the Marshall era with WSU.Comment

"We have to pass it, to find out what's in it".

A quote I found about the former president of University of Memphis, talking about the name change from Memphis State.
Kind of think a similar effect could be had here. Even if it’s only a cosmetic change, it could still be an effective one.”...It became kind of a festive thing. It was meant to be a statement that we had graduated to a new level."The AssmanComment

It would be interesting if we could somehow poll the entire Alumni Association.
The problem with doing a City wide poll is you would have a lot of chickenhawks and K-Stater's trying to muddy the water with no votes (obviously that name change would be a mild threat to their brand).Kung Wu say, man who read woman like book, prefer braille!Comment

Uh, no it wouldn’t. Did you read any of this thread?Originally posted by SB Shock View Post
Baseball has already been placed in has-been status. The AD doesn’t care about it so who cares?
As with Marshall, the brand isn’t harmed at all. It just makes us look more big time. I don’t think Memphis was harmed with their change.Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

If you have "state" in your name, and you're not in the P5, it is more or less a sign of mid-major irrelevance.
Outside of us, the AAC has zero schools with "state" as part of their name. The A-10 has zero. The MWC has a few, but they are big schools with fairly established brands.
On the other hand, in the MVC there are three; in the Sun Belt four; in the Horizon three... so and so forth.
Which side of the line of demarcation do we want to be on, branding wise?Comment
