FSU has changed the head logo. Whether or not you personally like the new logo is irrelevant. It is the new logo, and this page should reflect that. If the school changes its mind and goes back to the old logo, then we can put the old logo back. Mister Tog ( talk) 00:10, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
Also: the old logo is still shown on the page, a bit below. Mister Tog ( talk) 00:20, 22 June 2014 (UTC)
I have attempted to clean this section up, and making it a bit clearer. Especially the first paragraph dealing with a short history of the men's progam. Knolefan ( talk) 22:06, 26 July 2011 (UTC) The Basketball section is horribly written and is full of incomplete sentences and sparse information that make it impossible to understand. I dont know enough about FSU basketball to fix it, but I would suggest someone who does to fix it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.233.211.171 ( talk) 20:01, 5 November 2008 (UTC) what the fuck
What about moving this to "Florida State Seminoles"? Other schools seem to use this format: Michigan Wolverines, Florida Gators, Duke Blue Devils, or specific to sports Notre Dame football, Miami Hurricanes Football, etc. AriGold 17:40, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
i know that the seminoles are a old tribe in flora
While this was a problem a few years back there are two users that are in an edit war on the validity if it should be posted.
FSU does not have a MASCOT we have a symbol sanctioned by the Seminole Tribe of both Florida and Oklahoma.
This should not be a major point in the article for it is resolved, also view the Atlanta Braves, Kansas City Chiefs and Cleveland Indians do not have anything indicating their controversy.
The Fighting Illini of Illinois had no support for their mascot, they did have a mascot.
I say this should not be a major category but rather a see also at the bottom of the page in line with the setup of Atlanta Braves, Kansas City Chiefs and Cleveland Indians -- UkrNole 485 ( talk) 14:43, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

I have no idea what your deal is, you are just trolling for trouble. the compromise was in place but apparently that was not good enough for you. your information is outdated deal with it. please accept our compromise or leave simple. do you accept the footnote ore not ?-- Nolephin ( talk) 00:28, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
I've come here having read the posting at Requests for Editor Assistance, here. If I understand the dispute correctly, Badagnani wants to add a paragraph concerning the history of the FSU Seminole symbol / mascot, the prior controversy surrounding the use of this Native American symbol, and its ultimate resolution. I think that some reference to this issue - even if the controversy is now old news - is warranted if for no other reason than to answer the implicit question raised by the sentence in the second paragraph of the article that currently reads, "The teams are represented by the symbols Chief Osceola and Renegade. This Native American name is used with official sanction of the Seminole Tribe of Florida, Inc."
That being said, I find the the tone of the disputed paragraph to be too contentious, and longer than necessary. And the proposed compromise - a subtle 'see also' link to a segment of a separate Wikipedia discussion of the controversy, here - seems to bury the matter a bit more deeply than anyone can reasonably be expected to find it. The most sensible thing to do, I think, would be simply to drop a footnoted reference to the other article right where the question enters the reader's mind, namely, following the sentence noting the sanction of the Seminole Tribe.

I placed a POV tag on the basketball section. It reads like an FSU press release. Would a watcher of this page please clean up the "boosterism" of the first paragraph in particuliar. thanks. Ahodges7 talk 18:42, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
Right now the article gives the impression that the Seminole successfully resisted removal, but that is not true. Most Seminole were removed after the 2nd and 3rd Seminole Wars. There were only a few small pockets deep in south Florida that were able to resist removal. Those pockets are the Seminole of Florida today, while those removed became the Seminole of Oklahoma. Shouldn't the article reflect this, by saying that SOME of the Seminole avoided removal? Emperor001 ( talk) 21:22, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
