Not just for the nostalgia, but I don’t think the new logo really grew on the fan base. I think they just accepted it because they had to. I now associate this new logo with the AAC since it was debuted right before our first year as a member of the AAC. I think one of the reasons the school decided to change the logo at the time was to coincide with the new era of UConn athletics in a new conference. Now that we are back in the Big East, maybe it would be a good idea to go back to the old Husky logo that became famous during the time we dominated that conference.

That was Nike's call. They rebranded a number of schools at that time.

Who cares what logo they use or what uniforms they wear? Honestly, after most basketball or football games I attended, if you asked me to describe what they were wearing. I couldn't. But then again I go to watch the games. Not a fashion show If they play well and win, they could wear Tarzan loin cloths for all I care.

Let’s sign a shoe deal with Converse.

I still can't believe we had aeropostale at one point.

We approved it. I remember Herbst talking about how there white huskies weren't a thing, which was just idiotic. I'd love to see a rebrand in a year or two back to a white husky logo, similar to what we have now. A few people on the board made some up that were attractive.

I like the new logo better than the 00s Husky. There. I said it.
I do too, it’s so much more aggressive. I do think we should bring back happy husky on occasion though. Put it at center court for the providence or st johns game at gampel or something.
