mjd77 1,540 Posted May 16, 2019 I like. Are there any secondaries besides the D? Is the actual duke logo gone? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't find the rest of it to be that bad. The court is in dire need of another center logo though. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CaliforniaGlowin 2,154 Posted May 16, 2019 Oh boy, so which Sharks will have the better branding? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LBSU is keeping their interlocking LB and their "Beach" wordmark in their set. So who knows how heavily LBSU will actually lean into the new nickname. Meanwhile, LIU is starting from scratch--merged institution, new nickname, new colors (blue and gold). 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DC in Da House w/o a Doubt 3,649 Posted May 16, 2019 3 hours ago, Oso said: The secondary white uniform is brutal. The D logo is a really awkward shape. Seems like it exists just to compliment side stripes. And I don't understand why teal is in the home uniforms but not the road, and the second home has no red. All very confusing. The standard home isn't too bad, pretty clean. Reminds me of Villanova of this era: 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they were going to do that, then go with green for the Post campus and black for the Brooklyn campus. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CaliforniaGlowin 2,154 Posted May 16, 2019 Almost anything LB does would be better than boring old blue and gold. That's like one of the most used combinations. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think color really shouldn’t make as much of a difference to you as it does imo, blue and gold is beautiful when done right, much better for a team named the sharks over black and yellow or green and black 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They need NEON blue and NEON yellow (might as well throw in some NEON BLACK with it as well) 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brave-Bird 08 1,740 Posted May 16, 2019 Not going to lie, this is one of the boldest rebrands I've ever seen for a college -- super comprehensive, albiet kind of all over the place. But I find it beautiful. That court is amazing. They're going to stand out, for sure. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dynasty 2,411 Posted May 16, 2019 So, why did they add aqua? Is that a school color I didn't know about or is it just random? 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heck, pretty much everything about this athletic department merger has been one big clusterfudge so 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
