Like each side of the yoke, front and back, would have the twist pattern. That would bring a little more flair to the hockey jerseys. Here is the barbed piping, I kept it all the same color because the color blocking looks off otherwise. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb105 Posted March 20, 2021 Author Share Posted March 20, 2021 Colors - Prairie Blue - Maroon - Steel - White Logos - Primary: A Frankish warrior, in a style similar to the Minnesota Vikings logo - Secondary: Crossing axes, called franciscas. University Emblem - A shield based on the Porsche logo, but with the aforementioned franciscas and the duck image found on the Stuttgart, Arkansas welcome sign. Football The stadium is sponsored by Riceland, a business located in Stuttgart and is the largest rice miller and marketer in the world. The football uniforms use two distinct striping patterns, both based on the font. The primary jerseys have shoulder stripes that ended up being a love-child of the classical Jets uniform and the UCLA stripes. The helmet and pants stripe is simply putting two of the jersey stripes together, and voila! The alternate jersey just moves the shoulder stripes to the shoulder caps. Basketball The arena is sponsored by Windstream, a Little Rock based communication and managing services company. The basketball uniforms use the helmet/pant stripe, but separated. The asymmetrical approach was inspired by the current Memphis set and the blue/green Hawks uniforms. The alternate uniform drops the side panel and pants logo and instead uses a harness pattern, similar to the T-Wolves and Wizards. Hockey The hockey uniforms carry on from the basketball alternates, with the harness pattern being used on the sleeves and the football jersey stripe being used on the hem. The breezers and socks use the basketball stripe, with the breezers using two stripes and the socks using three. The alternate uses the same separated stripe on the shoulders and arms, alluding to the baseball sets. Baseball All of the uniforms use racing stripes on the shoulders, and continues down the side of the pants in the form of thicker side stripes. The away set blue, like the powder blue fad in the 1970s MLB, as well as the maroon alternates similar to the old Phillies uniform. There is a total of four cap options, two blue and two maroon, the only difference being each color has a primary logo option and a secondary logo option. All of the caps can be worn with any of the uniforms, but the primary cap is always the color of the wordmark and with the primary logo (primary blue with home and alternate, primary maroon with away). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blindsay Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 I’d understand if you don’t want to make alts for this team, but if you do, I’d suggest either the sunrise colors or the green. Also try to give the Football’s endzone the striping patterns of the basketball courts. Good stuff as always.

the_grateful_ted Posted May 12, 2021 Share Posted May 12, 2021 Might be my favorite concept of yours so far, not exactly sure what the Aztec-north Carolina connection is but aesthetically it’s off the charts. Well done! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kb105 Posted May 12, 2021 Author Share Posted May 12, 2021 When the Spanish were exploring a route to their New Spain capital, they thought the Blue Ridge mountains were connect to the mountains in central Mexico, where the Aztecs where. So Aztec and Appalachian creates apptecs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kb105 Posted June 2, 2021 Author Share Posted June 2, 2021 This is an updated version of the Millwood Screechers. The original version can be seen at the bottom of the post and the explanation of the differences can be viewed HERE. --- --- Uniforms Spoiler --- Background Spoiler Millwood owes its creation to the establishment of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The new park soon saw hundreds of thousands of visitors, and thus a new tourism industry was introduced to the area, including the development of Pigeon Forge. In 1969, Art Modell had purchased Goldrush Junction, which is today Dollywood, Pigeon Forge’s theme park based around country music star Dolly Parton. Modell had also purchased a tract of land set back on a mountainside. This portion of land was much less talked about as Modell never had any plans to develop it for tourism, but instead planned to build his own vacation retreat. His plans were changed, however, in 1976 as he sold Goldrush Junction to the Herschend brothers, the owners of Silver Dollar City in Branson, MO. Along with the sale of the theme park, was the sale of Modell’s retreat, although this was purchased by the Tennessee Baptist Convention as a site for a new seminary. In 1980, phase one of construction was completed and classes began in the fall. However, instead of opening as a seminary, The scope of the school was increased as it would operate as a two-year college, with a connection plan for graduates to Carson-Newman College, which is another eastern Tennessee Baptist affiliated school. The school opened as Mill Creek Bible College – named for Mill Creek, which runs along the northeastern edge of the campus – with an enrollment of 300 students. By 1990, first-year student classes for MCBC had become larger than Carson-Newman, resulting in plans for MCBC to expand to become its own four-year school. In 1994, Mill Creek Baptist University did just that as phase three of construction had built four new academic buildings as well as an athletics village three-quarters the way up the mountain. In 2010, the Tennessee Baptist Convention could no longer fund three universities (a third college is located in west Tennessee called Union University), and decided to drop the most recent addition. Luckily, MCBU was in a strong enough financial situation to remain open, although they did undergo a rebranding as Millwood University, referencing their location along Mill Creek and in the woods of the Smoky Mountains. Today, Millwood has continued to keep close ties with the Tennessee Baptist Convention, with rumors swirling that they may re-affiliate in the near future, as well as expanding to boast an enrollment of 6,000 students. Athletics for Millwood began in 1994 with the construction of their athletics village. The teams were originally called the Eagles, just like Carson-Newman, however students had long been given the nickname of Screechers. This nickname originated early in the school’s history as Art Modell had constructed a series of ziplines across the mountainside campus. These ziplines were utilized by students as a quick form of transport, especially when leaving Sunday chapel at the top of the mountain down to the base of the mountain, where the library, mess hall, and dorms were located. And just like their mascot, MCBU followed Carson-Newman by joining the South Atlantic Conference. In the SAC, MCBU struggled, finishing last in conference eight times in football, 6 in baseball, and 10 in basketball. In 2010, when the school lost its affiliation with the TBC, the school gained an administration who put a focus on using athletics to raise its national presence, which resulted in their first conference title coming in 2011 on the gridiron in what would be their final year of competition in the SAC. The new administration also instituted a more student body focused athletic branding, going from the Eagles to the Screechers, while still maintaining their two costumed eagle mascots named Moses and Miley as well as their live bald eagle mascot, Mills. --- Football Matchups Spoiler --- Previous Versions Spoiler Logos: v1 Football: v1 Basketball: v1 Hockey: v1 Baseball: v1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_DietDrPepper_ Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 I think LeRoux might be your best one yet. It all works together fantastically. I do have one question though. Why Hodgenville over their much bigger neighbor, Elizabethtown. Elizabethtown seems much more likely to house a university then the much smaller hodgenville.

If you want a more exciting person to base a LaRue County school on though, why not Abraham Lincoln? He was born there after all.
