End of the block C?

[Drew]

Noticed in the pic above we have the white husky dog helmet in the background versus the block C

I like the white helmets. Hope they're here to stay.

 

[SubbaBub]

Nah, prefer blue. The white on white on white has a very Washington Generals feel to it.

 

[noeynox]

The blue looks so pedestrian to me. No character. Everyone has their like and dislikes i guess. I like Buffalo's blue helmets better

 

[BugsyCT]

Most schools now have multiple alternates so I like the current mixture of Block C and Husky logos on both blue and white helmets.

This was so close. Full husky head logo would have been it.

 

[JMick]

it's starting to feel like time for a new logo. I'm hoping we go back to something closer to the 90s logo

White helmet with the Block C has a classic look. There are a number of "Huskies" (e.g., Washington, Northern Illinois) out there, but there is only ONE "C"onnecticut.

Opinions differ. I’m loving our current logo. Hated the fluffy Samoyed.

Just shave the block C in to the side of the Huskies head.

You are SO wrong. White helmets look very pedestrian & cheap. They look like the organization is paying bargain prices & not going the extra mile. I've said this in the past: Think back to the early 70s. In the YanCon, UConn, UMass, UNH, & URI all wore white helmets, It looked like someone just slapped different logos on them. Then in '72 or '73, UConn went to Blue helmets for contrast purposes. (Joe Corbo was on this team). The perception was an aesthetic improvement.
Another example, also from the '70s: The newly formed AFC East: New England, Jets, Miami, Baltimore, & Buffalo all wore white helmets from their inception. That division looked like the Division was shopping at the helmet bargain basement. Of those teams, only the Colts & Dolphins have retained white. The Colts helmet is historic, no need to change. The Dolphins helmet harkens back to their greatest NFL success: their fans would despise a change.
If you look over the Helmet project, UConn's helmet has alternated between Blue or White (with a few years of that insidious grey). I just feel that the National Flag Blue is more aesthetically pleasing & looks more "professional". I would only use white helmets on the date of a designated "whiteout" game. I'd even venture that now that red has officially been designated as UConn's 3rd official color, UConn endorse red helmets as an alternate.
I realize every fan has his or her own preference. The athletic department use whichever official color it wants. I Just prefer National Flag Blue as the primary color. After all, for years, UConn teams were referred to as the National Flag Blue & White.
We can't all be Penn St. or Yale with our color schemes. Even BYU changed to Blue helmets.
Rant over.

The B1G likes letters although the helmets vary, like the wolverines.

 

[Urcea]

I for one like the national flag blue helmets...classic look

I’m not a fan of the matching helmet/shirt/pant combo. I like white helmets, blue shirt, white pant or visa versa.

I remember the lecterns in the larger halls had this helmet logo etched into the front of them in the late 90s. Also, I know it's mostly a relic from a bygone era, but the NCAA Football PlayStation II game from 2002 or 2003 issued helmet stickers. Caulley's helmet was half white by the time I played NC State in a bowl game from the number of dog bones on the back.

We still need that white Block C helmet.. Looks too nice to simply let it go...
