new logo leaked?

[hthusky74]

My family bred and showed various breeds and i spent many weekends at dog shows. Im very familiar with what a Husky looks like. While the new logo does look like a husky it clearly has some features that people think makes it look a bit too much like a wolf. While im fine with it the way it is im just saying i won't be surprised if they don't tweak the thickness of the head and/fur to give it more of a traditional husky look.

WHy not just use a white husky which is our mascot? http://www.huskycolors.com/white.html

Huskies look like wolves. They do not look anything like our prior logo. This is much more like a real husky, and the light blue eyes remove any doubt that it is a husky and not a wolf.

Ya, the last husky looked like some sort of demented show dog. Had a mane from hell.

Its not perfect but here is my "remix" of the logo using the correct mascot - An ALL WHITE Husky.

Honestly Pen - that is even a bit better then the new one. Nice work!

Agreed. Either one works for me and both are much better than the prior one.

Seriously, UConn should look at this closely. Someone get them on the line.

I just tweeted it to them. If I don't get a response I'll start emailing people

Wife says it looks like a wolf and daughters aren't crazy about it because they loved the old logo. They got used to me, they'll get used to it.

A couple of people on this forum have pull. Hopefully, they get on it too.

Good because if I send an email it's probably not getting read

Penfield, that looks really nice.

Hey Pendield that looks great. I think with the all white logo, that will end any questions about whether its a wolf or husky. Thats my first impression. You're all white one screams UConn.

@CoachKO_UConn: Love the New Logo! Can't wait to see it on The XL and Gampel Floor. My Son Jalen said it's Hot! So I guess that's Good. Lol
Embrace Change

Tweet back Penfield's logo

While I always thought the current husky logo look a lot like a samoyed, it is supposed to represent an all-white siberian husky. This one misses the mark in carrying that tradition, which I think is essential in differentiating UConn from other the other schools that call themselves Huskies. If they take away the facial mask, reduce the blue to a slightly thinner chopped outline, lose a little of the teeth, and use the red, that would be on to something.

I liked how they rushed out the release today after the leak. Have they confirmed the leak is why they pushed it up from the 18th?

Looks like,it was leaked.

There was a link to an article on the yard either yesterday or the day before about the artist who designed the old logo and how it was modeled after his Samoyed. It may be been meant to look like a Siberian Husky but it was a Samoyed.

That sneaky ducker. Trolled UConn for years. It looked like a poofy show dog.

 

[ctchamps]

Adding the red outlining makes a world of difference.

I'm warming up to it.

This I like!! Go UConn!

The logo sucks and I hope we don't get sued by Houston Baptist

It would get completely lost on a white uniform - it's a fail.
