I kind of like the flying M, it’s the only one of those three that we’ve actually used on a helmet

What does it mean/what’s the significance? Not going to lie, I’m a tad confused by it.
I’m not entirely sure, first appeared on helmets in 1966.
When I was in school most of the engineering buildings were your typical mid-century eye sores as money was put into updating business, vet and other buildings.
That logo was still around in places on those buildings because it was our new brand when they were built.
So I, personally, have always associated it with the engineering school even though I don’t believe it was designed with that intent.

There’s a good reason why these logos aren’t used anymore.
Actually two.

It certainly has that 60’s “space race” feel to it

That’s actually a good description.
Kinda has a Flying J vibe too (which probably originated around the same time).

Not even an Ole Miss fan. Just love southern history so I certainly appreciate Colonel Reb!

Wish nothing but pain on the Aggies, but those Ol Sarge logos are cool.
Always thought A&M would be marketed best with ol sarge shirts and a uniform that is Penn State plain - just white helmet with maroon stripe and no beveling or double stripes or any of that.

did someone actually get paid to come up with THIS abortion of a logo???
The fact that they got rid of Stroke Dawg for that piece of garbage is the biggest abomination to ever transpire in the UGA Athletic Department. I'm so glad that practically nobody wears gear with that piece of shite logo.

Even better, when doing an image search for it, I discovered someone had turned it into a gif:
