Old School Fool Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I like how the U looks like a field goal post. Should be on the football teams helmets, that is if they have one, I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raysox Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Generic font, but overall not bad. I love the golden gate logo tho. @MichaelDanger19 | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkJourney Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 As per Wikipedia: The 1951 University of San Francisco Dons football team,coached by Joe Kuharich, went undefeated, with a record of 9-0, and the team produced ten future NFL players (Ollie Matson, Gino Marchetti, Bob St. Clair, Dick Stanfel, Ed Brown, Lou Stephens, Burl Toler, Joe Scudero, Roy Barni, Mike Mergen, Merrill Peacock, and Ralph Thomas). Five became NFL Pro-Bowlers, and Gino Marchetti, Ollie Matson, and Bob St. Clair later were inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame?a record for one college team. The team also had another first; Burl Toler became the first African American official in the NFL. Future NFL Commissioner Pete Rozelle played a role as the Dons' Athletic Publicist. At the height of their success, the team experienced one of the greatest snubs in college football history. Due to the team having two African-American star players, Ollie Matson and Burl Toler, they were not invited to play in any of the college football bowl games hosted by the SEC (Southern Conference). This resulted in the team being invited to the Orange Bowl without Toler and Matson. The team refused the invitation. Guard Dick Columbini said "'No, we're not going to leave ?em at home? ... ?We're going to play with ?em or we?re not going to play. As a result of the team's refusal to play in the Orange Bowl, the USF Athletic Department was forced to drop its football program in 1952, due to a deficit in department funds.

meetthemets Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I can't imagine what SME was paid for that. Very uninspired. Just another example of big design firms doing lazy work and (probably) getting paid a ton of dough. Someone from this board could have done this in 3 seconds.

LMU Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Definite upgrade by the WCC rivals. The old set was overly cartoony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 Pretty underwhelming... the logo is a definite downgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sapphire Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Those look pretty terrible imo. Downgrades for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCDuck Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Meh...The WCC as a whole has had a run of pretty "meh" rebrands in the past few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walkerws Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Downgrade. It doesn't even really rep the city right. A very lazy attempt at the bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosrs1 Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Pretty underwhelming... the logo is a definite downgrade.Agreed. Terribly generic downgrade over this one. Particularly the "fieldgoal" logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
