Toledo Rockets

I like the basic premise behind Toledo's look, but there are a few peeves I have with it. I hate wordmarks on helmets, so that's out in favor of just the Rocket. I used tapered stripes to mimic the shape of the Rocket's exhaust in the logo. With a name like Rockets, a modern uniform is much more fitting than a traditional one, in my opinion. Not too many changes overall. I did edit the Nashville Preadators' numbers to create the numbers you see here, which mimic the letters in the TOLEDO wordmark. For the record, I eyeballed the colors to come up with PANTONE estimates before I found out the actual values, and I was right on with both the blue and yellow, so I felt special at that point in time.

Although I'm not the biggest fan of going retro, Toledo's retro style rocket logo is one of my favorites.

I like this design. I think helmet logos that mix image and text don't work well.

I like these for Toledo...and it works pretty well with either the blue or yellow mask.

That being said, as a UConn fan, I was glad the Huskies beat them as ugly as those current threads the Rockets wear in the Motor City Bowl last year :D
