Personally, I prefer contrasting end zones for things like college bowl games, college conference championships or the Big Game.

I like it, nice clean up while maintaining the overall integrity of the logo. I hope even more schools embrace their old-school mascot logos.

While I’m glad the piping has returned, I think it’s took think to use with the font used for “Tigers.” The “G” gets muttled where it intersects with the piping.

TBT - Old New Orleans Hornets gear
GeauxColonels replied to B-Rich's topic in Sports Logo General Discussion
I was walking into the Harahan Walmart the other day and a guy gets out of his vehicle in a Hornets pullover with a gold word mark across the chest (can’t remember if it read “New Orleans” or “Hornets” though). Something similar to this: -
I’m truly curious, does anyone like the centered, stacked logo design? I’ve never been a fan.

Arena Football News & Updates
GeauxColonels replied to ProfessorBigShots's topic in Sports In General
Anyone else read that logo as “Georgia G-Force?” -
I’ve always like that Hofstra logo, and I think you’ve paid homage to it very well here. Great execution.

Actually, "Creoles" would be a much better name for a team located in New Orleans. "Cajuns" are located in other regions of the state Lafayette/Acadiana (which is west of Baton Rouge) and the Bayou Region (southwest of New Orleans, stretching along the coast over to Acadiana).

Cool logos/names in the Sunshine State Conference
GeauxColonels replied to B-Rich's topic in Sports Logo General Discussion
The only school out of these I had heard of before today is Nova Southeastern because I saw some of that DII title game. -
I like the texture, and stacking the text would cover up too much of the orange IMO. I would like to see the text slightly small.

AHL/ECHL/Minor/Junior League Hockey Changes
GeauxColonels replied to Dante_X's topic in Sports Logo News
I’m with you. I hate everything about this brand. Love that minor league hockey is coming back, but they completely mailed-in the branding. -
Did your high school copy a pro or college team?

Right? But it works! -
Did your high school copy a pro or college team?

Being in Louisiana, we have our share of LSU knock-offs: Lutcher High Bulldogs....at least it's not a straight copy. Thibodaux High Tigers....used to be a direct knock-off until they switched the tiger head from the old LSU one to a logo from a Baton Rouge area brewery. In the last 2 years, my alma mater Hahnville High added a set of white helmets with a chrome LSU tiger logo. They still have their purple helmets with a gold "H" logo. Our cross-river arch rivals, Destrehan High (Wildcats) have used an old Washington St logo for as long as I can remember. The St. Amant Gators used to use recolored Florida Gators logos on their field, scoreboard, helmets and other items. Rumor was that they received a C&D from UF and switched to a different helmet decal. I must say that the gator-print helmet stripe has grown on me too. Probably my favorite helmets in the state, though, belong to Loyola College Prep out of Shreveport. They Flyers feature a beloved cartoon character on their lids. -
Love it.....and I really dig that green finish on those lids. Sharp.

Branding 180s that have actually worked
GeauxColonels replied to spartacat_12's topic in Sports Logo General Discussion
I was watching a Mariners game the other day and was thinking to myself how much I really like their brand. It really holds up well even now. The color scheme is pretty classic now and the primary logo is one of my favorites in the league. I hope it stays around. -
Division 1 College Conference Realignment
GeauxColonels replied to dfwabel's topic in Sports In General
That may be the most likely scenario. There were rumblings that the Southland was going to go that route before Lamar came crawling back and UIW flip-flopped. I’m curious, though, as to how many of those schools have the budget necessary to move up to Division I athletics. -
Division 1 College Conference Realignment
GeauxColonels replied to dfwabel's topic in Sports In General
I think the WAC hung its football aspirations hat on the addition of Sam Houston St and the other Texas schools with the intent to move up to an FBS league in the future. I’d argue that none of the current membership institutions are even close to being ready to make that jump, and once SHSU and NMSU were poached by CUSA many had to rethink the league (I’d argue that SHSU probably isn’t either). Geographically, it’s incredibly wide-spread with a pocket of Texas schools, a pocket of Utah schools and other members spread over 3 other states and extreme southern Texas. The travel costs for these schools had to had significantly jumped. I suspect that Lamar realized that it was a poor financial decision and that they’d rather cut their losses now rather than carry the burden any further. After Lamar’s decision to go back to the Southland, UIW decided to stay put in a more stable FCS league. -
North American Pro Soccer 2022
GeauxColonels replied to Brian in Boston's topic in Sports In General
Out of the way for people living in the city, sure. But I would think a USL club would pull a decent amount of support from Metairie, Kenner, the River Parishes and the Northshore. For those people, a Metairie site is more convenient. It obviously doesn’t have the panache that a downtown stadium would have, but I don’t think that would make it a bad location. I also don’t think the Municipal Auditorium site is big enough to put a stadium. It’s a relatively small space locked in by Congo Square and the Mahalia Jackson theater. You’d have to re-route Basin St maybe through some of the existing surface lots to make it fit, IMO. But you’d also have to fight preservationists that wouldn’t want to see the Municipal torn down. Other than the riverfront, the only other place in the city that I think might be viable would be a lakefront location over by the UNO arena. Two or 3 years ago, I would have said that a location in the city would be fine, maybe even desirable. I’m not intending this to start a political debate/discussion, but I don’t want to go into the city at all right now with the way crime is. Hell, we’re leaving for vacation on Saturday morning and will probably go out of our way to go around the city rather than take I-10/610 through it. I would much rather a suburban site with the current environment. -
Which Saints intern is on staff from the Seattle area? They need to be sent back. The only thing worse than their current black leotard set has come to fruition. This screams Arena League.

Washington Commanders to debut new NFL identity
GeauxColonels replied to DCarp1231's topic in Sports Logo News
Let’s see… - BFBS? - Satin helmet finish? - Numbers on side of helmet? - Logo on front or back of helmet? - Gradient or pattern in numerals? Boy these organizations sure do like to completely botch things, don’t they? -
