BrianLion Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Despite the fact it's not the new logo, I do like the fact that it actually looks like a Husky as opposed to some generic happy white dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhamen0420 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Is it just me, because the first thing I think of when I see that logo is the old Minnesota Timberwolves logo. "Roll Along" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaha32 Posted March 21, 2013 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Is it just me, because the first thing I think of when I see that logo is the old Minnesota Timberwolves logo.Without having the two logos side by side, that was my first thought when I saw this UConn logo too.

wILL-INI Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Here it is.AMAZING!!! Best upgrade I've seen of a logo in a while! Anyone have any idea who did it? "Classic" does not mean it gets a free pass for being bad design.Portfolio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPDesign Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 There are few similarities between those two logos,other than being a front-facing husky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aawagner011 Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Very nice logo!! So far 3/4 of the new logos we have seen have been front facing (UGA, Cal, UConn but not Oregon State). Seems to be the theme this year for Nike overhauls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

missouri tigers Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Great logo, i instantly recognized ot from the dribble shots that Matt mentioned. Looks like they're keeping the same basic font for the word marks too, which is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meetthemets Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 While I think Frazier does excellent work, I think that Nike rebranding all of these schools (I'm sure there are more coming down the line) isn't necessarily the best direction for college sports. Seems as though they have begun the process of monopolizing sports design, much the way 2 or 3 firms did in the late 90's. Eventually these are all going to fall into the same look as those in the late 90's did when SME and Rickabaugh did every logo in college. Coincidentally, they are the same schools that are getting new looks now, again. We've already seen backlashes from some schools (TCU, etc.).Variety is a good thing. Again, not criticizing the work, per se, just don't think it's a good, strategic road to go down to have one person or firm servicing everyone.

It seems like a lot of schools are going this route instead of a classic logo that will stay around forever which is what I think is better for colleges. Most of them are upgrades, but will probably be updated relatively shortly. But I think the UConn logo has a bit more staying power than the Oregon State or TCU (where they backed away from the logo before even using it.)

Coyote Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 As a Husky Alumnae, I think the new logo is pretty great, but it leans on the generic side.EDIT: after looking at it a bit, the shirts and angle make the Husky look a bit derpy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
