    Coastal/Kansas is a perfect example of what I've been bitching about.  KU has the SAME FONT from the helmet to the front wordmark to the numbers.  Coastal has one font for the wordmark and a whole different font for the numbers.  I can understand not using the exact same font, but at least make it a serif font!!! Makes no sense.

    That’s the difference between Power 5 and the G5. You’d think teams with simple custom serifs could get something close but nope. The only Kent State uniforms that use a school specific number font was a one off jersey for basketball

    I hope to get some C&C on the Does, but in the meantime I'm going to move forward with my next team in the series and resurrect both the Arena Football League and the Milwaukee Mustangs!

     

    I wanted this logo to reference the history of the Mustang name in Milwaukee as far as Arena Football is considered, while also still making it feel like part of the same larger organization that would own the Bucks, etc. I used the general design of the original Mustangs logo as the base, but changed the horse to something that isn't the same, but has some similar notes to their first revival logo. Of course I used the Bucks' color pallette and font. Simce I'm referencing old logos in the design, I posted the real-life Mustangs logos below my logo for comparison.

    The mane is lost in the letter firm. I'd render it in a different color or put. Alone around the horses frame inside the letter. It looks like a greyhound as it's currently rendered

    Yet another 1988 team, one of my all time favorites, the New England Steamrollers.  With this team I decided to do the following:

     

    1. Retain the main logo but add some grey to the orange & black and modify a few details. 

    2. Change the helmet to grey (and the pants as well).  I have always loved orange, black and grey (old BC Lions uni turned me on to it.)

    3. Retain the black asphalt line to the back of the helmet, but incorporate an orange line and then link to a standard central helmet stripe. 

    4. Use the very tiny secondary NE shape logo as the sleeve logo (see it below the main logo).

    5. Use a relatively simple stripe pattern on the orange jersey, but use a sleeve top orange block to add something a bit newer to the white. 

     

    Eventually I may add wilder alternate uniforms, in which case a black helmet may happen. 

     

    But for now, a standard home/away uni for the Steamrollers.

    That’s a gorgeous uniform. The helmet strip would be difficult, but it’s easy to match that ridge stripe with the steam rollers.

    Winston Moss to be named HC of the LA team this afternoon.  7 down, 1 to go (Houston). 

     

    Worth noting that only 3 of 32 NFL Head Coaches are African-American, and 1 is Latino, while 3/4 of the league is African-American.  With Pep Hamilton, Jonathan Hayes, and now Winston Moss, 3/7 new XFL coaches are African-American.  Worth keeping an eye on as they attempt to recruit players away from the NFL in the long run.

    They'd doom themselves if they tried this, I think. They're going to try to complement at worst. For all the "hate" the NFL gets, no one is taking that spot in the next 10-15 years.
