Obviously they are depicting different things, but both are clean, basic logos that are easy to use in a multiple of applications. Logos at schools (and pro teams) evolve over the years. Has happened over the years at UND, and will happen again. So maybe the current Fighting Hawks logo is like the geometric Sioux logo. It is good, not great logo that is simple, and is a predecessor for a wildly poplar logo to be adopted 25 years later!! (well....maybe sooner) OMG the Jolly Green Giant used to be our mascot? And where did he find a green bird to craft his headdress from? 2 1 Quote
InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted November 21, 2018 Posted November 21, 2018 Can't speak for other but including the letters ND in the logo is what really turned me off to it. I don't hate it with the fire of a thousand suns like some but that's always been my gripe vs the having issue with the hawk piece of it. Then again, you could call us the pussywillows and I'd be fine with it as long as we win some damn hockey and football games. Perspective, I guess. Quote

If enough people buy and wear it then maybe it becomes the unofficial logo....could be worse, see Dartmouth(Keggy the Keg) Quote

UND1983 Posted November 25, 2018 Posted November 25, 2018 Those new hockey jerseys they had on last night are actually pretty sharp. Colors pop, logo blends in. 1 Quote

The black ND of the logo on the green part of the jersey is pretty sharp, maybe with green helmets the football team should try that with the logo, instead of green on green. Quote

And rectify the minority bonehead logo decision that looks “cheap” This is the problem. Too many folks waste time and energy worrying about "getting behind" a logo when we should be more concerned about getting behind the athletic teams. The old logo was fine, the new logo is fine. I couldn't care less. It will likely evolve over time and that is fine. Wear whatever you prefer, but the constant debate and criticism of those who prefer the former logos or those who want to move on with the new logo is detrimental to UND as a University and to our athletic teams. Wear whatever logo you wish and quit whining about how UND reached this point or what someone else wants to wear. 6 Quote

Those dazzle jerseys were tacky. The ones after we’re sharp. And if they were going to pick a jersey from the pre Reebok days they should have gone with those sweet black nike jerseys we had. Quote
