    Yes, that was there previously.  The source of my link was from the athletics site, I guess they updated it which affected it here.  I'll be sure to use a more permanent pic next time.

    Hey that wasn't meant to call you out or anything, FYI. So sorry if it came off that way.

    Concordia University Chicago Cougars of Division III unveiled their new brand during Homecoming for the first time since 1983.  New is the cougar logo and font.  I take it uniforms will be updated next summer and will be slightly brighter, including for football.  Source

    Personally, not a fan at all.  The old logo wasn't fantastic but it was unique enough that I always knew who it belonged to.  Now it's seems too cartoonish and bland.  Wordmark is decent.

    This is their old logo.

    With Merrimack and now LIU (Post) moving to the FCS Northeast Conference, the NE-10 is going to be the NE-8. There are not that many D-II programs in New England, not sure right now who will replace them for football.

    With Merrimack leaving, the NE-10 will still have fourteen all-sports members. They'll just be down to eight (LIU Post was an affiliate member) for football. The conference actually didn't replace UMass Lowell when it left in 2013.

    A school some of you may know:  Edward Waters College Tigers of Jacksonville rebranded in August.  They gave a teaser in February of their new EWC mark then last month showed off the new tiger logos.  This set was created by Greg Hahn of Designs by Hahn.  He is the same person who designed the new logos for Paine College, University of Montana Western, National Park College, and assisted with Oklahoma Wesleyan University & Columbia College of South Carolina.  Edward Waters is a HBCU that competes in the Gulf Coast Athletic Conference of the NAIA & plays football as an affiliate in the mega 21-team Mid-South Conference.

    EWC also used a recolored version of Towson's tiger logo:

    Can't go wrong with a bear splitting an atom on your flag:

    Zeheleznogorsk, Russia

    So many questions! That bear is so small, what is it made of? Then by contrast, the flag should also be invisible! Also, it's using electron orbits to suspend itself from, which makes no sense! (sarcasm intended)

    It would probably work if Boston College went back as well. I don't think the ACC really helped BC at all except for maintaining a rivalry with Notre Dame and Pitt, outside of the money they are making they always seem to be in the middle to the back of the pack. 

    Again though, BC is also a private, Catholic institution, so they would fit in the Big East as far as being similar to the other schools. They'd also make for a nice travel partner for Providence.

     

    UConn is a flagship state school. That doesn't fit in the BE.

    Greg McElroy was spouting off this morning that UConn should try to get back in the Big East. His rationale being that they aren't getting much out of football in the American, so why not go back? Football is the only sport that would be possibly hurt unless someone took them on as a football only school. The only league that would probably do that is Conference USA and I can't see them signing off on that. They could also go independent and schedule teams around the same level as UMass and Army. 

    The Big East, though, is exclusively private institutions, and all but one of them (Butler) are Catholic. UConn as an institution doesn't fit in the Big East. The problem is, they have no other real good home except the AAC, unless it's maybe the ACC.

     

    They're otherwise too big and would never sign off on the A-10, CAA, or some other regional conference that fits.
