I'm thinking they concentrated their efforts on those national contracts and didn't exactly give their all on the flyover country bird. Quote

BIGSIOUX Posted May 14, 2018 Posted May 14, 2018 This thread is trash. And most of you should be ashamed of yourselves. I hope your children have someone else to model respectful dialogue with. Damn millenials, eh.... 1 Quote

People (including yourself if I remember correctly) have already complained about funds spent on the new nickname and logo and now your'e saying they didn't spend enough? Though I suppose being fluid in your position makes it easier to criticize. 1 Quote

I recall most of the complaining being, as Petey put it, that UND "got taken" for the quality of product it received in relation to the cost paid out to get it. Most (on this site) didn't see this logo as a sufficient ROI. Quote

Maybe Darell can investigate. This is the only article I remember seeing regarding the logo in any sort of rankings or awards. #37 in the best new primary logos of 2016 according to some Chris Creamer guy. Yet again, another ones opinion. But it wasn't on the worst logos of 2016!! http://news.sportslogos.net/2016/12/22/2016-creamer-awards-best-and-worst-new-logos-of-the-year/ Quote

No one else had a say on the logo, SME came out with 3 logos which no one else saw and Ed picked which one “he” liked best. https://www.google.com/amp/www.wdaz.com/news/4064977-schafer-fighting-hawks-logo-not-debate%3famp Quote
