I like the blue in the Husky mirrroring the blue in the letters. Don't like the all white as much. Just one man's opinion

I can definitely see that. My thing is that UConn's all-white Husky was distinct. I can't think of any other in college sports.

Now we went for a more generic logo that looks like UW or New Mexico.

New Mexico uses a crazy, stylized wolf that looks nothing like our logo and UW uses a side view of a husky. Their old logo was similar but neither look anything like UCONN's new logo.

....meaning the real Jonathan mascot and the dude walking around in the Husky costume will still be an all-white husky?

Seems like it, I asked a followup but got no answer
 
The logo is terrific.

Not a fan of the all-white one - no one should care that the logo doesn't exactly match an eight-year old dog that no one really ever sees.

If I can get any merchandise that looks like this with the logo and the UCONN name outlined in red and the grey background the way it looks above, I'm buying the living out of it, even if it means my kids dont eat. this is 1000x better than what we currently have, and I'm usually hard to accept change.

And if people on facebook hate it, that makes me love it anymore. I detest facebook.
I'm going to go to sleep tonight wacking off to this image.

People need to step back and picture this crew wearing the new logo on thier tank tops, thongs and assorted skimpy what-nots and whatchamacallits. Ya know what, the new logo works.

The new logo is growing on me as well, particularly with the red border. Looking forward to buying some new shirts, etc. I think it would look even better if a broken up NCAA logo was in its mouth (duck Emmert) or maybe an Orange.

Does anyone have anything negative to say about Penfield's all-white husky?

I look at that an I say, "Hot damn! That's not Northeastern's Husky. That's not Washington's Husky. That's the UConn Husky!"

No. It checks all the boxes. Sleek, aggressive, Husky, UCONN, and soon to be iconic.

How did they miss what some guy (a genius, ldo) on the internet figured out in 10 minutes? Or worse, someone at UCONN saw the white version and said, no?

Someone said no. They got two versions. They didn't understand that UConn has won some basketball championships.

You are hallucinating. This mascot sucks. It is nothing more than an ill fated attempt by Nike to sell more product. Well guess what? They won't. Giving up the traditional, distinctive, beloved mascot for one that could be the one for a dozen other teams is frankly, idiotic. I for one will never buy a UConn product with that image on it. Typically, I purchase my UConn products with the Husky on it and I buy a lot of them every year. I am just one person, but if you go and read the comments on Facebook there are thousands who feel the same way. What I really want to know is who signed off on this piece of crap, Herbst or Manual? Whoever it is needs to leave now because they don't have clue one. I will work through the Alumni Association and the UConn Club, I belong to both, to put pressure on the fools who made this decision to come to their senses. Even if I'm wrong, and they sell a few more shirts, it won't offset the lost donations. I'm telling you this is going to get a lot of people po'd.

We are now just another husky dog in a crowd of huskies. Nothing to make us stand out. This is what marketing does. Thanks Nike for making us like everyone else. I guess it goes with the new marketing of our new conference. I have faith in KO to bring us to greatness and then maybe even go retro to bring back the old logo. I took the voting to classrooms of students today, just checking to make sure it wasn't an age thing, and they overwhelmingly liked the old husky. I love the Huskies and hope I will get to at least like the new logo. Meanwhile will just buy Husky Gear with the name.
 
looks like a logo that a minor league hockey team might have. I don't hate it, it's just kinda generic and boring.

Yeah, and before, we stuck out as having a bad logo. There's no accounting for taste. Distinctive does not equal good.

It's the logo. It's the flipping logo.

The athletes and recruits wanted a new logo and are overwhelmingly thrilled with it.

Relax, for Christ sake.

News flash: you are not remotely as important as you think you are.

You really think those look the same? I appreciate you don't like the logo but I really don't see how UNM's wolf looks anything like our husky.

You don't see the generic similarities?

Washington hasn't used that logo for years

Exactly. Can anyone take a guess as to why they don't? (see two lines above this one)
