Blackheart Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 Brien's logo is as good or better than anything else I've seen...not sure what the point is though if SME is developing their own... Quote

I'm going to reserve judgement until I see the SME version. What's so bad about this one? It has the distinct sharp lines similar to another logo Brien did...hmm, what was that? Quote
Popular Post 77iceman Posted June 21, 2016 Popular Post Posted June 21, 2016 I've decided I'm going to like the new logo no matter what it ends up being . . . because really, there just seems to be more important issues in my world than what version of bird UND uses. The only way to be unique is to start with a unique name. That didn't really happen. So from there on, I don't think it much matters. Go Hawks! 6 1 Quote

Fighting Hawks is generic, but at least we know what we are getting. With Nodak, it could be anything!! 2 Quote

UNDBIZ Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 So does the writer not know what he's talking about, or is UND going to unveil a new academic logo as well? Quote

HawksHoops Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 Here's more info. Looks like you can watch on undsports.com The University of North Dakota will unveil the Fighting Hawks Logo on Wednesday, June 22, 2016, at 11:00 a.m. at the UND High Performance Center. The Fighting Hawks new logo and wordmark will be revealed at that time. Please join us if you are able. If you cannot be there in person, a video of the unveiling can be viewed at undsports.com.

tho0505 Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 All right here we go..... Please don't let this be a disaster... I'm surprised the logo hasn't been leaked. Quote
siouxfan512 Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 Hard to have high hopes for this given how the whole nickname process has gone. I'm still going to refer to them as the Sioux, but I may try to be a good alumni and buy a shirt or something if the logo is decent. Otherwise, I hope they still make some apparel with just ND or North Dakota on it. 1 Quote
Shawn-O Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 Something along these lines I hope. No non-sense and to the point. 2 Quote
NorthDakotaHockey Posted June 21, 2016 Posted June 21, 2016 A little birdie told me that folks are going to love this logo and brand. Word has it that there is going to be a squealing bloody little rodent hanging from its talons while the Hawk soars to new heights. 1 1 Quote
