Siouxperfan7 Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 So with the adoption of a new name and logo, teams are transitioning to new Fighting Hawks jerseys. Other sports have already made the move. Hockey will eventually as well. I don't think that we will see the logo as predominately displayed on the front of the hockey jersey as the Sioux logo, but it will be on there in some way, most likely on the shoulder. This brings me to what I am wondering. Will the hockey team come out with a redesign of some new jerseys? Or will they just stick with the current design and replace the interlocking ND patch on the shoulders with the Fighting Hawks logo? 1 Quote

UNDBIZ Posted December 13, 2016 Posted December 13, 2016 I'm guessing they just replace the shoulder patches as well. I'd appreciate a new design though, as the current jerseys essentially require you to customize them with numbers or something to fill the big hole on the front between North and Dakota. I'm also not a big fan of the colored armpits and shoulders. Quote
Siouxperfan7 Posted December 13, 2016 Author Posted December 13, 2016 The basketball team has a jersey design similar to the hockey team with 'North' on the top, 'Dakota' on the bottom, and a number in the middle. They have updated their jerseys to the new script. Will be interesting to see if the hockey team does the same. Quote

Either way, I think these look pretty sharp. Quote

Siouxperfan7 Posted December 13, 2016 Author Posted December 13, 2016 I am not saying that the hockey jerseys should have a huge giant Fighting Hawks logo on the chest. I am saying they need to integrate it on their jerseys/breezers/helmets/etc. The basketball team, as well as other sports, have done a nice job integrating it without hitting you over the head with it. I get it. The logo is going to take time for some people to adjust to it. Making slight modifications to jerseys like the basketball team has done is a good first step. I would like to see the logo on the shoulders and the helmets. Also using the new script on a newly designed jersey (without the ugly armpit colors, would look sharp as well. 2 Quote

The current jerseys look god awful as replicas. They are honestly embarrassing, and I can't believe anybody buys them. If they came out with a new jersey without an awkward number gap, I'd buy a couple. 1 Quote

Maybe they should just put an 8 on the front of all replica jerseys until they get a new design. Quote

Or how about saving everyone the trouble and putting a number on the front of the jersey in the shop - let the buyer pay to add the shoulder and back numbers if they so choose? Just an idea from a jersey guy... Quote

I wouldn't be surprised if 3 or 4 of them are basically unpaid grad assistant type "coaches", unpaid former players who need to get a start somewhere into what they hope will be a coaching position.

They should do a full redo on the style because the new font won't match the style of the current jersey. The chances of that logo being front and center like that are slim to none. Quote

For all you fockers out there that don't like the gap.....put a number in it. Jerseys look better customized anyway....even the replicas. 2 Quote
