It was announced yesterday on the Shawn and Wally radio show out of Little Rock that World Class Athletic Surfaces has been contracted to make a giant Razorback stencil in order to paint a giant Razorback logo on the field at Reynolds Razorback Stadium. Stretching from the 35 to 35 yard lines, the designer of the stencil called the giant Razorback “The biggest stencil we’ve ever done.”
Reports indicate that the midfield logo should be ready in time for the home opener this season.
Guess if we can’t have the biggest video screen anymore, then we might as well have the largest on-field logo.
Kudos to Jeff Long, or whoever made this decision, as well as several other pretty awesome decisions lately. Now, all we need is the Hog Helmet Car rolling around on the field this year, and we’re all set to start the new era of Razorback football. We can’t wait.

I have but one word….finally.

Please God let it be the classic Razorback logo and not this crap.

Can we get the Hog a little larger, like oh…70 more yards or so? I want the opposing team’s jerseys to be covered in pig red.

I’d trade the stencil for the Hog Car any day.

LAnkford: that may be the only way to see “pig red” in the end zone this year.

What would even be more awesomer is if the stencil was of the Hog Helmet Car!

When I said, tits, I meant they should put tits on it, too. EQUAlITY NOW!!
Also, they should give it Frank’s face, and Rick Schaeffer’s vagina.

JTrain, I heard a rumor (i.e. read it on an unsubstantiated, sports message board not affiliated with the University in anyway) that Long was going to ditch the stupid Pumba logo.
If this is true, Long has been the best thing to come to UofA Sports since the helmet car. (which i hope is making a triumphant return this fall …)

Totalbastard: Oh yeah! Maybe the FF needs to sponsor and “underground Razorback logo” contest. Winner gets a ride in the helmet car.
