CDixonDesign Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Looks like Adidas is gonna use their fading gradient logo across many teams, including ND.Those WF uni's look great. Really like the Arched Script. Beautiful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuordr Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 This has nothing to do with uniforms, but if you want to know how die hard Kentucky Fans are then check out this time-lapsed video that shows fans lining up 72 hours in advance for tickets to Midnight Madness (the first open practice of the year). Over 24,000 tickets were handed out in only 35 minutes. How many schools can say they have this type of following? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin W. Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 From a distance, those ND uniforms look good. Are there any close-ups? Mighty Ducks of Anaheim (CHL - 2018 Orr Cup Champions) Chicago Rivermen (UBA/WBL - 2014, 2015, 2017 Intercontinental Cup Champions) King's Own Hexham FC (BIP - 2022 Saint's Cup Champions) Portland Explorers (EFL - Elite Bowl XIX Champions) Real San Diego (UPL) Red Bull Seattle (ULL - 2018, 2019, 2020 Gait Cup Champions) Vancouver Huskies (CL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdu Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 From a distance, those ND uniforms look good. Are there any close-ups?Sure. Just look at any other adidas basketball uniforms for 12-13 and change the gradienty to shamrocks or somesuch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They obviously decided that it didn't work as well in other applications, but I think it would look nice on other unis as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keynote Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 What is Maryland's sudden fascination with that wordmark? I mean this is getting ridiculous already, just but the damn M flag back on the court, or even the Terp.That wordmark is now the primary wordmark...the "M" logo and the Terp are still part of the identity package:I like the fact that Maryland has chosen to focus its' brand on "Maryland," and not "M." There are a number of schools with a big "M" as their primary brand, including Michigan, which frankly has a stronger overall brand in big-$ sports than the Terps do. Focusing on "Maryland" emphasizes state pride (especially in conjunction with the flag/heraldry imagery) and distinguishes Maryland from Minnesota, Michigan, Mizzou, Marshall, and any other school that could and/or does use a big "M" as part of their brand.

An "M" with those design and colors is distinguishable by itself as "Maryland".There's no reason Maryland couldn't have developed a more succinct/compact secondary logo instead of blasting the entire name across the court.
