OrangeBalloonCoast Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I don't care for Louisville's use of the cardinal head logo, a la the Arizona Cardinals, nor any of their logos except for this one. So, I messed around with it some, tried different helmet stripes and this is what I eventually came up with:C&C appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lenardo Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Switch the red and white on both the logo and the stripes and you have a winner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knnhrvy16 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I agree with the other two exactly, just switch those colors around and you've got a winner. I like the idea of the helmet for sure! The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

Drakonius26 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 It's too bad they won't do this, as I think their Cardinal-head logo is one of the worst in all of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, what I came up with isn't exactly a work of genius either! Anyway, here's an edit to my first edit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knnhrvy16 Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Now that's a good looking helmet! I think that absolutely works, nice job! The opinions I express are mine, and mine only.

ctk Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 cardinal fan here (uofl edition). i don't like this concept. uofl football has the cardinal head just like michigan football has their design and alabama football has the player's number. there are some things you don't change about our unis, and the cardinal bird is one of them. if you included some combination of the old english L AND the cardinal bird, it may work. but that white L doesn't look right at all, especially on a white helmet.the cardinal head has been a part of our uniforms now for several decades now. the only times it has not has been during the lee corso years (when it was just the us flag) and 11 various seasons since 1960. change the stripes, change the uniform design, put "the ville" on the unis instead of louisville (most fans are split 50/50 on that one) but leave the cardinal bird alone.

vicfurth Posted March 6, 2011 Share Posted March 6, 2011 To put Louisville in the same category as Michigan or Alabama--aesthetically or in any other football context--is pretty hyperbolic. It's a nice looking helmet, I'll give you that. It just doesn't strike me as especially creative, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 the cardinal head has been a part of our uniforms now for several decades now. the only times it has not has been during the lee corso years (when it was just the us flag) and 11 various seasons since 1960. change the stripes, change the uniform design, put "the ville" on the unis instead of louisville (most fans are split 50/50 on that one) but leave the cardinal bird alone.11? I count 16 without even knowing what they wore in 75, 76, or 77. And most fans are split about The Ville being on the balk alts, not the entire uniform set.To put Louisville in the same category as Michigan or Alabama--aesthetically or in any other football context--is pretty hyperbolic.As a Louisville fan, I agree. That'd be like Boise State comparing their program history with Alabama, Oklahoma, etc. Yes they've won a couple of National Championships and have had success at every level but those titles were one JUCO and one D-1AA.
