College athletics identity changes

Was googling style guides and came across Florida Tech Panthers of Division II.  In their Standards Toolbox, there's a slightly different panther logo, secondary logo, & font.  Looks like whiskers have been shortened & eyes more piercing.  Extra outline removed & colors unchanged.  Otherwise shape of the head appears the same.  The secondary goes from FIT (Florida Institute of Technology) to FT (Florida Tech).  Athletics website does not showing anything new yet, will edit when the time comes.  I'd expect to see the new version on their football helmets this fall.

I got this link today as I have seen games at Loyola the last two seasons. This is the new court design for basketball and volleyball at the Gentile Arena. It's OK, but could have been more striking IMHO.  They, like a lot of institutions in Chicago, are leaning hard into the '4 stars on the flag' motif. Personally, I wish Loyola would go back to the "LU" design they had when I grew up there and my Dad was a professor.

UMKC (Missouri-Kansas City of the WAC) Kangaroos just went back to the fighting kangaroo design as a homage to their past.  New is the front-facing kangaroo upper-body, KC monogram, and font.  Text seems to emphasis the 'Kansas City' more without the 'UMKC'.  Colors are similar with a new 2nd shade of blue.  This was designed by Old Hat Creative.  Source Article.  This article shows some cool pictures of the evolution of the kangaroo.  (Previous logos on mothership)

Love love love the new interlocking KC logo. It looks classic without being a knockoff of some other interlocking logo. The "c" is similar to the wishbone C without being a ripoff.

 

I agree with @Shadojoker that I don't know about the shading, but I really like the design overall and think this is a vast improvement for UMKC.
