Hand drawn fake college identity

Hello sportslogos forums so I'm pretty new here and I haven't posted anything before so I thought this would be a good place to share some drawings I had. The idea is that I'm throwing out some drawings and then I'll try figure out a program like gimp to use so I can create a whole University identity, creating whole departments and uniforms for football and basketball and all the other big sports. So here is are the Bismark University Boomers, located in Bismark, North Dakota. No one ever does teams from the Dakota area so I thought that would be fun. The name Boomers comes from the economic boom they had from oil pretty recently. I haven't given it color yet cause I want to get some comments from it, but I've decided they'll be Midnight Navy and Old Gold. Thanks hoping to get some comments and criticisms!

Hey again guys sorry this took so long but I was swamped with practice and studying, but here's the color version of all these! I'm working my butt off trying to find/learn a program to get this going on a computer. Thanks appreciate some feedback!

Definitely a solid look, I do have a couple of ideas though. First, I think a thicker outline on the numbers and oil drops would make this look a lot cleaner (leave the borders on the white highlights the same size though). Second, the primary seems a bit too vertical, I think it might look better if the oil rig was made a lot bigger with the B on it. Looking forward to seeing this computerized if you are able.

Fair point, it's your concept, so whatever looks the best to you go for it. The updated color scheme and loss of the highlight I think give it a more of a professional feel, which could be good depending on what you're going for, but I kinda liked the fun look of the old one. Finally, without the highlight, I feel like the tertiary is a bit bland.
