    Well, I guess we could have gone with this and made at least some people happy!!
  2. Siouxperfan7
    You do realize that they are using green and white in the logo because those are our colors right? What do you suggest....brown?!! Yeah that would look great!!!

    I have heard from a source within the UND athletic department that they are making slight modifications only in regards to adding borders to accommodate using the logo on different background colors. As far as the logo itself, you are correct. It is not changing.
  4. Siouxperfan7
    There is not. But, they are apparently in the works of making slight modifications to use it in multiple applications. I have heard that adding a white border to be able to use it with a black or green background is one of the possibilities.

    Not sure how everyone else feels, but merchandise with the new logo on a black hat or a black Under Armor jacket would be pretty sweet!!

    They are not going to make the tips black or change the "D" in the logo to what you have here. That being said, I do like the outline and shading. Anyone you can mock up a version with they tips and the D they way they currently are but with this type of shading?

    I have heard form a reliable source inside UND athletics that they are in the process of making slight modifications to the logo. Mainly adding a border in order to use it on a green background. The modifications WILL NOT include making the wing tips black, as shown in this latest modification.

    This is a huge factor moving forward. Before this year, every team going into the Frozen Four knew how long it had been since UND's last title. They knew about all the Frozen Four semifinal heartbreaks. They felt the weight of an entire fanbase and their expectations. This years team but that all to rest. I think not having to go into the season, and postseason, with that type of pressure is a huge lift of the teams shoulders and I think they will play a lot more lose.

    The logo will not appear on the front of the jersey, as shown in the presentation. I think we can all agree that the most likely place for it on the jersey is on the shoulder. (Might see it on the helmets as well). Wondering if theya re going to do a new jersey with the new script SME developed? Or will they just stay with what they got.

    Wait, it's hard to keep up. Are we blaming the player for changing his mind, or the administration for not processing his application quick enough?!!

    So someone out there with some photoshop skills. Can you mock up some shirts, hats, etc with the new logo on it? Would be curious to see what it looks lilke on merchandise.

    Again, compare the new Fighting Hawks logo to the ones used by UND in the past. They have very similar features. They all have a crisp, clean, contemporary look that is simple. Nothing groundbreaking in college logo designs. Schools have been doing it for years.
  13. Siouxperfan7
    There are many of these that I would classify as more "boring" and "corporate" than our logo.

    There is a lot of passion right now towards the new logo and the new name. It would be nice to see that type of passion for supporting the teams instead of the logo on their jerseys. Put that passion into coming to football games and packing stands and making the Alerus the most intimidating place in FCS football. Put all that energy into volleyball and basketball games at the Betty giving our basketball team the support the deserve. Continue to pour all that emotion into supporting the hockey team at home and on the road continuing to make UND the best fanbase in college hockey. Support all the other sports like swimming and diving, softball, and soccer with the same attitude as well. My point is that we need to focus on the right things. Complaining about a logo and a name is not going to help our teams win. But giving them that extra support at games and making it tough on opponents do to the passion, energy, and emotion of the fans in the crowd is what we as UND fans need to focus our attention on.

    That is the problem. Many young fans were too young and were not paying much attention to all of this when it went down over a decadeago. For example, the freshmen at UND this year were first graders when the NCAA came out with their policy towards native american nicknames and logos. The things that students and younger fans are fighting for have already been fought for years before they even knew what the term "hostile and abusive" meant. Instead of generation after generation fighting the same battle over and over, lets focus on building new traditions with a new name and logo and passing that down over generations of UND fans.

    I expect good things from our Sophomore class in particular. The experience they gained last year, especially in the national tournament, will help them greatly. I think guys like Gersich, Wolanin, and Gardner are all going to have breakout seasons. This team may be young, but they are young and very talented.

    The Sioux logo was a very unique logo because , really, it was never intended to be a logo. It was a work of art that was eventually adopted to be a logo. So lets just put that iconic logo aside for now and look at the previous logo's UND has used compared to our new Fighting Hawks logo. Obviously comparing it to the old Sioux logo will leave you dissapointed since is was such a great one. But compare it to previous logos we have used in the past, and it really isn't as bad as people want to make it.
  18. Siouxperfan7
    Wait....someone on this site with the name "Siouxforever" doesn't like the new logo? Shocking!!! (relax bud. Just giving you a hard time).
  19. Siouxperfan7
    If 3 more green banners get hung up at the Ralph here in the next 5 years or so with the new logo on it, I think it will become more accepted by our fanbase!!

    Can someone mock up a logo on a helmet with the logo as it is now with just a black outline around it? Nothing where the D and the feathers are modified. Would be interesting to see what it looks like.
  22. Siouxperfan7
    So in 3 days they have gotten 3810 signatures. I would hardly call that a mandate.
  23. Siouxperfan7
    Unless they plan on getting donations to cover the $50,000 spent on this logo to start over and do it all over again, it ain't gonna happen. Espcially considering the financial issues that UND is going through right now. Give it time. I already like it more today than I did last Thursday.
  24. Siouxperfan7
    Digging up an old thread, but I think that the Alerus really needs to adopt the new name and logo as much as Bubba and the rest of the football team are. May thinks that the Alerus should do eventually to really make the Alerus Center the home of Fighting Hawks football. Putting the logo in the center of the field would be a great start. Anyone with some sill want to mock up the current turf design with the new Hawks logo on it? I think it would look pretty good.
  25. Siouxperfan7
    I'd really like to see UND go with the new logo on one side of the helmet and the payers number on the other along with a stripe(s) down the middle of it as well. Would look great!
