sacker12 Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 I remember for a while that North Texas was named the Eagles, but they recently renamed the team the Mean Green.
TruColor Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 I remember for a while that North Texas was named the Eagles, but they recently renamed the team the Mean Green. North Texas has been BOTH the Eagles and the Mean Green since the '60s.I'm an alum.
TruColor Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 In addition, I've been buying the National Directory of College Athletics (Men's and Women's editions) since the late-'80s, Peterson's college directory since the early-'90s, I've got the book "What's in a Nickname" that chronicals the stories behind hundreds of school nicknames, and I also have the Encyclopedia of College & University Name Histories.And...it's all in my database.I'm kind of a one-stop-shop.

TruColor Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 I've been meaning to get a lot of this information on my site...maybe this'll inspire me to actually do it.
slapshot Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 Interesting note about North Texas...The athletic logos' colors are Green, Blue and Copper (looks a little orange), but all the teams seem to wear green and black.I don't think Oregon uses the Donald Duck logo anymore, I think they've gone strictly to the new "O-Oregon" logos that use a similar font to the University of Miami-FL.

slapshot Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 Troy University was established in 1887. I don't have any logos in vector format, but I do have many of the athletic logos from the school in .png format. You just have to know where to look, and to be a little creative with the web addresses On the Troy site is the graphics and standards manual (look for Chapter/Volume 3) and it contains at least 30 Troy logos in vector format, plus most of the sport-specific ones.

TruColor Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 Interesting note about North Texas...The athletic logos' colors are Green, Blue and Copper (looks a little orange), but all the teams seem to wear green and black. Quite a lot of the colleges out there have different colors for the university vs. the athletic teams.Wisconsin-Stout for example lists Copper and Black as the school colors, while the athletic teams use Royal Blue and White.
paynomind Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 Wow.I was assembling the Georgia Tech stuff for you, but looks like Pantone has the GOODS! NCFA Sunset Beach Tech - Octopi ΓΔΒ!

PhilaLogos Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 Chris, I have started a sort of "NCAA Uniforms Project" using Nicks template. I have completed Oklahoma, USC, and Auburn and I plan on doing many more. If you'd like, I could send you what I have so far and you could put them on the team sites if you want.
Alphabet Man Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 Great addition Chris... twitter.com/thebrainofMatt
Brass Posted January 13, 2005 Posted January 13, 2005 I can get my hands on some Keene State logos where my brother goes. On 4/10/2017 at 3:05 PM, Rollins Man said: what the hell is ccslc?
Frylock Posted January 14, 2005 Posted January 14, 2005 I don't think Oregon uses the Donald Duck logo anymore, I think they've gone strictly to the new "O-Oregon" logos that use a similar font to the University of Miami-FL. I'm more of an OSU fan, than a Oregon Ducks fan -- can't you tell? But anyway, the Ducks still use, well, at least they still sell merchandise with the Donald Duck logo, but primarily within the state of Oregon. Most merchandise sold nationally has the Nike-O logo. The dullest, mind-numbing logo on the planet...

CC97 Posted January 14, 2005 Author Posted January 14, 2005 I have somewhere in the range of 2,000 different NCAA logos. If I can help, just let me know.
