I know BW took a while to update certain parts of campus with their new logo back in 2009. One part was by the concession stand at the main gym. They had this logo, only the yellow jacket, painted on the wall for about 8 or so years (2009-2018 or 2019) until they repainted it with the current logo. Fun fact, that logo (just the yellow jacket) is still used for IT and it's still on the marching band uniforms Hot take: That old yellow jacket is better than the current one: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stumpygremlin Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Speaking of schools dropping "Crusaders," Evangel University, an NAIA school in Springfield, Missouri, dropped the Crusaders nickname in favor of Valor. So the teams will now be known as the Evangel Valor. New logo: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't the NCAA have rules that require uniform numbers to actually be legible? I know college football teams have sometimes been forced to change number colors that were a lot more readable than that. 2 Quote POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSmith48 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 UCF unveiled a new "Knightro" logo, now forward facing. I think it is an improvement over the old one, definitely a good "modernization" so to speak. Looks like they carried over some elements as well (plume on top, general shape/resemblance). Only nitpick is that the divide/black space between the visor and mask parts of the helmet needs to be thinned out a bit, too much negative space there. Previous knight for comparison: It's part of a slight* brand update. That Knights script is fantastic, although I think its been used already (football helmets if I remember correctly): 5 Quote Visit my website at SSmith Designs (google.com) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumpygremlin Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I don't like having two different "Knights" wordmarks. Of course, I just wish they'd go back to being Citronauts. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, letting Illustrator do the heavy lifting on the stroke work, I see. (The point on that feather is looking a bit too straight/automatic.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Previous knight for comparison: It's part of a slight* brand update. That Knights script is fantastic, although I think its been used already (football helmets if I remember correctly): I know it's limited by the shape of the letterform, but the kerning between the K and N is bugging the mess out of me. They really should have tracked the NIGHTS out more to optically match the open space between the K and N. I also don't care for the shift in shade of [what's supposed to be] gold, but I'm sure that's a stock Nike swatch used for other schools who also have gold as a color. Adding that hypocycloid at the point of the neck--and then naming the thing Knightro--was a subtle stroke of genius. 1 Quote *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the shadow kind of shows that, could just be me. Quote | BROWNS | BUCKEYES | CAVALIERS | INDIANS | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heavybass Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 An updated secondary logo because they need to be taken seriously now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFB Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 The position of the eyes on the new UCF logo are WAY TOO HIGH relative to the perspective (head slightly looking down).... I guess the eyes would make sense if the knight wasn't looking down, but then the facemask wouldn't be covering the nose and that would somehow be even dumber.

dubiouselemental Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 (edited) Just jumping on here to say that UCF stole that script logo. I designed it back in 2017 for Hickory Christian Academy in Hickory, NC. You can see it all over their website. http://hickorychristianacademy.com/hca-athletics/ This is part of the branding proposal I sent to them: I've already been in touch with their brand directors to find out how they ended up with it.
