Blackheart Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Just now, MafiaMan said: I am still stunned at the number of fans who think the Grand Forks star-hawk (don’t get me started on the “hidden North Dakota,” which looks forced and doesn’t even look like the actual state) and the smashed-beak hawk qualify as “good” logo alternatives. They’re not good...but still better than Burlington Northern-USPS Hawk. 2 Quote

UNDBIZ Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 IMO, people "like" those logos more because they aren't the logo. It's just a protest. 4 1 Quote

Siouxperfan7 Posted June 6, 2019 Author Posted June 6, 2019 9 hours ago, Rebel_Sioux said: Well baring creating a new poll/thread, no I don't. Just my personal observation that almost everyone I know who is part of the "Forever Sioux" crowd is more upset by items 2 and 3 of @Siouxperfan7 previous post than anything else. Nothing can be done about 2 now but they can create a new logo. Also, everyone I know, excluding you two, (who admittedly, I don't really know outside of this forum), like these logos better than our current USPS copy. All of us fans of UND are upset with the process of selecting the new nickname and the selection of the logo. Not just the #SiouxForever crowd. Compaining about the process was justified and a shared view of all of us. The name is here to stay. the current logo is what it is. Will it be the logo 50 years from now? Likely not. So for all that like the current Fighting Hawks logo or are at least ok with it, great. For those that aren't a big fan or those that absolutely hate it, be patient. As we have seen, Teams, Universities, etc change or adopt secondary logos all the time. 1 Quote
90siouxfan Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 Patience grasshopper, the lame mundane postal logo is there to absorb the wrath, it will be secondary logo in time and we will likely see a change in logo occasionally until the masses tire of whining... the number out of my ass is 12.4 minutes until I get flamed for this. 1 Quote

And in converse, some people don't like them cause they aren't the official logo. Release the "official" and these unofficial logos at the same time on an even playing field and it's probably pretty split among which is the favorite. Quote
Cratter Posted June 6, 2019 Posted June 6, 2019 I would say the "Grand Forks star logo" would probably be the favorite. (Minus the star part) 2 Quote

SiouxFan100 Posted June 7, 2019 Posted June 7, 2019 Not thrilled with the Fighting Hawk name but do like the logo - in fact really like the logo! Quote
