Sure.  I'd tell him that.  Respectfully, of course.  The football team never embraced the University's logo in the past and there was no need to do it now.  

You apparently have never interacted with any former UND football players.

He's a company man... it's his job.  What else would you expect from him?

And you apparently have never had a conversation with Bubba. If he's a company man, it is only because he cares more about UND than pretty much anyone out there, not because of something he is or isn't supposed to do.

what would it look like if the "hawk" was green the nd was black and the black swoosh/eyes were white?  probably better and less racist.

Note... These are not official!

I just wanted to see what the logo would look like with different color jerseys.  I have no idea if this is the route UND/SME is taking with the negative space:

SMH  I don't know what to say.  I didn't have high hopes, but even this failed my expectations.  Tell me... will anyone out of the surrounding states recognize that is supposed to be an N and a D?  Seriously?

Looking at what you've put together so far, IMO, the ND should never be white and the hawk shouldn't be black.

From the Herald's Q&A...

Quote

 

Will this replace the interlocking ND athletics logo?

The interlocking ND mark will continue through the next academic year before it is moved to the Dacotah Legacy Collection. Fans will continue to see this in some current applications until such time as updates to facilities and the like are needed.

I voted this an "F" and here is  why.  1.  Be unique, recognizable, inspiring and distinctly UND's. Fail.  2. Promote a sense of pride, strength, fierceness and passion. Fail.

3. Be representative of the state and region in a way that honors the traditions and heritage of the past but also looks to the future.  Fail.  4.  Be a unifying and rallying symbol. Epic fail. 

I want to puke over this new logo.  My God this is brutally bad!!!

Some are wondering if this is a "transitional" logo.

Other thoughts are too rectangle...lots of white space if they put it center ice at the Ralph.

I was curious about that as well.  Seems like you don't see landscape rectangle logos too often.

Your logo (in your picture) is WAY better than what was chosen (two different companies obviously). However I wonder if SME had chosen to add more color they would have gotten sued by the company which created the logo in your picture?

So if nobody buys the merchandise, can we start the logo process over?

Probably not....but you sure as hell will make your point by financially hurting the teams and university you love. (high five)

And that's really what we all want here.....to stick it to UND the best way we can.

I'm still trying to figure out more ways that we can hurt UND....be right back....

One initial positive from the new logo is it makes it easier to fit it between the hash marks at the center of the field in the Alerus Center!!

It appears to me that they were trying replicate and replace the interlocking ND  logo, not to replicate the Sioux warrior logo. It has a very corporate feel to it, the previous one had an artistic feel to it. It was not what I was expecting at all so it's going to take me some time.
