Geometric for 97 and 2000, then interlocking ND for 16. I wonder if people would be mad with the BB logo taken off a lot of banners. Mad would be an understatement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still snatch up all of the BB logo memorabilia I can and don’t really care for the new logo. However, I have purchased items (Jersey - wanted another color, quarter zips, pants, etc) with the Hawk logo. I will always call them the Fighting Sioux and my kids know them by that name as well, just because that’s how I reference them. That being said, I would be more supportive of the historical logos used for the banners than a BB logo - I think it’s very cool way to show the history of the program. See the logo Belfour, Blake, etc wore while playing here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like the majority prefer era-specific logos to exclusively the BB logo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big A HG Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I prefer the continuity of using one logo, especially when it's as nice as the BB logo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxperfan7 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 So what logo will be on the next banner that gets hung from the rafters? the Fighting Hawks logo or the "North Dakota" script. Unfortunately, it would likely be the stupid script!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So clearly it would be the REA not wanting to offend the hockey fanbase by using it on a hockey banner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure i disagree... When all the banners where the same and was theblogo... fine... it looks more uniform and structured. Once thatvhas been changed and now not uniform... I like the idea of period correct logos.. or wordmarks Not nobody gunna put sammy up .... Use a diagonal SIOUX for 1st 2 Bhawks logo variations... (permission may be an issue) Geometrics and of course the current UND for 16 and the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siouxperfan7 Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 For context, the Old Ralph at one time until the last game there had the geometric logo on all 7 of the National Championship banners. The WCHA Championships I believe had just the year and "WCHA Champions" on it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They control the building not the product playing in it. Banners belong to the University. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it's about building a brand. When a recruit walks in and sees the banners up there, it looks like one historic family of tradition. It all feels connected. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to explain it how I think it. I don't hate the idea of period correct logos, I just prefer the way it's been. On a side note, I also wish that the team would come up with a jersey design that can stand the test of time and never be changed outside of tweaking it as necessary.
