I think we can all agree it was meet with mixed emotions, to put it lightly. I had the preconceived notion that no matter what the logo came out to be, I was going to support it. I am sure there were others that did the same. Obviously there are those that will go till their last breathe criticizing the logo and will never accept it. Just wondering, not that we are 2 years into it, has your perception of the Fighting Hawks logo changed from what it was when it came out. For me I have gone from acceptance to actually thinking that it is a good logo. Curious if others have felt the same way. Or if you still just hate it the same as he day it was released 2 years ago today. Don't hate it...more indifferent to the whole thing at this point. The U moved on (they had to) and now they're stuck with a generic name and a mediocre logo. I don't see them changing it anytime in the future either so carry on. 1 Quote
UNDBIZ Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 Still think the name is sh*t and the logo is very solid for what they had to work with. 1 2 Quote
Siouxphan27 Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 Still sucks. Always will. Look forward to a new logo whenever that may be. All that said, I'm too old to care what I'm wearing, so I've got close to a dozen shirts with the dove on them. Cheapest dri fit tshirts of any quality in town. Quote
UND1981 Posted June 22, 2018 Posted June 22, 2018 I have FH logo on the shirt from the UND Park River golf event. I will find some ND logo to cover up the white dove before I wear it in public. 2 Quote

Now you got me all mad, too! 2 Quote

Now you got me all mad, too! Why do you care what clothing someone is wearing? Clearly they are still supporting the University. Some of you guys (not you in particular) are so miserable about this. Live your own life and move on when you are ready to move it. You cannot make everyone happy. Everyone wasn't happy when we were the Sioux, everyone isn't happy now. R-E-L-A-X. 4 1 Quote

Throw in the fact that many teams have a logo that uses team colors instead of what you would typically see in nature and it seems like people are trying too hard with the dove thing. 1 Quote
90siouxfan Posted June 23, 2018 Posted June 23, 2018 I doubt I saw all the banter and debate during the name selection process, but was anything in realm of dinosaurs and such ever discussed. Seems like there is a link to North Dakota there. Is there any dinosaurs without 37 letters except for raptors? Quote
