uk-owns-iu Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 The University of Southern Indiana (based in Evansville, Indiana) has changed both their academic and athletic logos. While it has been widely reported here that this is the first change since 1985, that is not true although I am unsure of when the previous change was made. This was the logos when USI won their Div II championship in 1995 with Bruce Pearl as head coach (my favorite is the star which shows Evansville's position on the state)Then sometime in the 2000s the change was made to this (downgrade in my opinion)And now finally, we have the new ones unveiled this week:Personally, I like the star logo best. But of the two new ones. I like the torch and flame best because it's a part of the Indiana state flag. The other new logo looks like the love child of the Atlanta Hawks and Philadelphia Eagles.

GriffinM6 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 New logo is freakin' beautiful. This looks like it was done by Joe Bosack and Co. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian in Boston Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 While we are all accustomed to Joe Bosack producing "freakin' beautiful" logos, the new University of Southern Indiana marks were designed by Rickabaugh Graphics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crashcarson15 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 What a beautiful mark. The USI identity's been old and stale for a long time now so glad to see them getting something better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaha32 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 I wish schools/teams would just update their previous logos, keeping the general elements and composition the same, but just modernizing the style. The Liberty Flames did a nice job of that recently. This update is an improvement style-wise, but the new eagle looks like something we have all seen before. My nitpick would be the top left outline around the S which is meant to mirror the N's outline, and also the bland font choice (looks like Phoenix Design Works go to font).All in all it's a solid modern logo, just nothing unique.

Shadojoker Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 I agree the institution logo is the bomb. I agree the athletic one looks like the Hawks and Eagles had a one night stand! Its ok but the one before that in 2000s was better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
