Hey everyone, I'm looking for a flag/banner that has the old 2003ish logo on it. Haven't been able to find one online yet.

Side note. I loved that logo and wish they'd bring it back.

This one?

For Father's Day last year, my son bought me a t-shirt commemorating the 2003 Final Four, and that eagle was featured prominently.
If we're gonna have the name Golden Eagles, we at least should have a good logo, and that qualifies. I guess they decided they were ashamed of being the Eagles and went with just plain MU instead.
-
The current images we do have are too cartoonish for me.
-
POS, hey?
-
Was just saying To my wife that our logo kinda sucks. I liked it better with the eagle, our off center MU and it saying it Marquette ( assuming no one would know otherwise) is pretty weak.
We need that swooping grabbing eagle as a symbol of our toughness.

That is the one. Way better then that cartoon bird they have now.

Not a flag, but even though I generally prefer other vendors over the spirit shop, I am likely to get a new one of these.

I had that one when I was a kid. No idea what happened to it. Hope to get it back tomorrow.

While a tremendous accomplishment, this is ancient history. Not as bad, but sorta like the Chicago Bears still living off their 1985 Championship. What have you done lately?

Those 19Nine shirts are really nice and really comfortable. I have that one, planning to wear it tomorrow.

I will say though, I do like the new court over the old one. Maybe instead of the awful MU logo, we bring back the Eagle logo like Kansas has.

While true it's ancient history, at least it's Ana accomplishment that gives us something since 77 because that'd be worse than the bears living off 85

i will NOT buy anything with a "golden eagle" on it! MARQUETTE or MARQUETTE UNIVERSITY or MU...that's it! was at spirit shop a couple weeks ago. they have some really nice stuff w/o the buzzard. my sis in law bought me a really sharp sweatshirt a few years ago but it had a buzzard on the deltoid region...duct tape worked well

If I were a Chicago MU alum I would be talking MU '77, Bears '86, Jordan Bull's and the Cubs WS until the day I died. I dislike everything Chicago sports related, but loved the action surrounding the seasons I mentioned. The '86 Bears and the Jordan Bulls era must see TV for me and I loved it. I loved the Jordan Bulls so much that I went to multiple big games by myself at Chicago Stadium and the United Center. Seeing Jordan at Chicago Stadium and MSG are two of the sporting highlights of my life. I would tell ever Chicago fan to brag about those teams for 50 more years.

If it doesn't say Golden Avalanche on it, I ain't buying it!

Wow how are you just going to skip over the most dominant World Series run ever like that? (White Sox)

Should wear the old school uniforms too

Chicago guys,
Happy to see you liked your White Sox WS win, but this WI sports fan was not impressed. That said, my kids all played hockey and the Blackhawks run was enjoyed by my family.

I kinda like War Eagles.

Hell no! I'm a Warrior 4ever. I won't even say the other nickname, much less buy anything promotin' it. Sucks major ass, hey?

I think the old “ Eagle “ logo $UCKS
Better that the school use the MU LOGO that is on the court, clothes etc

Sir, your opinion is incorrect!

Doc and rocket,
I do not care what the nickname is because they will always be the Marquette Warriors in my book. None of my MU gear has anything Eagle related and never will.

They both were better than Vanilla Soft Serve, which was used 2500 times.

If we're going by "the Sox" then I'm claiming Boston's wins as well!

About as much as, "Nothing on my Marquette gear will ever have anything to do with Golden Eagles on it, because they'll always be Warriors to me!"
Tuuuuuffffff.

This logo has been gone roughly 18 years now, so I'd say it's in acceptable "throwback" territory at this point. I wouldn't mind going back to it as a secondary logo to the current "MU".
I remember lots of people being glad to see it go away when it did, but it only lasted 11 years. The current iteration has lasted far longer, although the eagle itself isn't used prevalently.
-
I vote we change the name back to Warriors. What say you, Scoop?
-
The use of the eagle has been undoubtedly de-emphasized and even phased out over time. I think it's too much of a hassle to deal with since a significant portion of the alumni base refuses to buy anything with it. So why not just go with an MU?
-

And I've only used it 1,488 times. Or 1,489 now.

Absolutely - I don't think they'll use an eagle logo on much for quite some time, if ever, mainly because it doesn't hold historical significance and it's not worth dealing with the strongly-worded emails.
However, we're creeping up on 30 years of the "Golden Eagles" name, meaning that there are about as many (maybe more?) living alumni who graduated under the Golden Eagles name as there are Warriors. The fight will live on for some time, but a boycott of branded apparel that primarily comes from male alums ages 52-92 is probably not too worrisome.
-
Honestly, seeing who is leading that charge makes me more likely to buy Golden Eagle swag.

No! Bring Willie Wampum back, old times were better.

Xavier has a muppet they call the "Blue Blob". The good news: MU added, as a precondition to X joining the Big East, that they must take the old Bleuteaux costume off our hands.

I like looking at those, but it didn't include from mid/late-70s through 1984, and damned if I can remember what it was.

I just learned that Bricky made it big time in the Marquette Journal. Perhaps our most famous moment.

Get the 1977 natty banner with the real warrior on it. Not the lame Eagle.
Have that natty banner proudly displayed in basement bar.

Shout out to "MU Chi_IL" (https://www.muscoop.com/index.php?action=profile;u=287) who actually created Bricky (in case you didn't know). It was never an official Marquette thing.

see! when rocket talks with his wallet, the jesuits listen. ;D i'm proud of the MU logo
-
I’m half Warrior half Eagle, but I did purposely wear a Marquette Warriors T-shirt to graduation and my only swag with Eagles is from the 2003 tourney. Going to all the games in person then taking the charter to Nola are all memories I hold incredibly dear, and I can “succumb to the Eagle” for something so amazing.
That being said, over the years, I have become partial to the debacle that was Gold. It’s unique, strong, and generally not offensive. Yes, I specifically buy non-Eagle logo’d swag from the spirit shop, but my sons both have pretty cool stuff with Golden Eagles emblazoned on it. A dark navy sweatshirt with GOLD stitched with actual gold would be baller

A gold brick of course. But MU was afraid that players would take it as being OK with bricking threes anytime they wanted to give shooting one go.

I have a Zephyr hat of the old eagle logo that I got around 2005. Get a few questions of where I got it from time to time.
I would be good with going back to that logo for when we have to use the Eagle. I like the emphasis of the MU logo though. I’d say that’s a silver lining of the Gold fiasco.

Anyone approximately under the age of 50 went to school during the Golden Eagle name. If you get triggered so much over a nickname that hasn't existed for 30 years, perhaps you should evaluate your life's priorities. Its more than time to move on.

I’m 52 and also steer clear of anything with the Eagle. I don’t think there is anything wrong with being a Marquette fan without being a Golden Eagle fan. I proudly wear my MU logo shirts and sweatshirts.

NO PANTS

Put the Eagle in a classic all Blue letterman’s sweater and he’s beloved from day 1.

Where on earth can women vote and drive? Not at my house. Women raise children, and when they're not doing that they clean. Slow down son, and put your gun back in your holster. Women are meant to cater to a man's appetites. It can be a full time job.
