That cougar looks like a red, white, & blue version of the Nittany Lion. Hope that they didn't infringe on any copyrights.

I'm guessing that those folks will soon start asking the same questions about the color blue as we ask about the color red...

-The blue makes me think Houston Texans a bit...
-I was hoping this thread was a funny one with different pics.
-I think Houston should drop the UH and just have a bold red H but w/e its just my opinion.

While I'm no more excited than most here about the #newnewbigeast, you can't knock Houston. They are quickly rising in sports and they clearly get "it" in the college sports world. Football is close to being on a top level and this bump will push them over the hump I think. Same can be said for UCF. They are building a new stadium or facilities right? There is a great TV market and they open up Texas recruiting for the league. They are on a huge uptick in basketball and the recruting is clearly there. Other sports like baseball are ok also.

I want the ACC or the BIG as much as the next guy but a league of UH/BSU/UConn/Ruty/Cincy/Lville/USF/UCF can stay alive and compete with the ACC for 5th best league on the field atleast. Not so much in $$ and media time.

I think if everyone just gave the New Big East a couple years for folks to get used to it we all might enjoy the upgrade in football. I could get used to seeing UConn play more than one top 25 ranked conference opponent each year. Five years from now Syracuse and Pitt will be the ones on the outside looking and wishing they were still in. Glass half full people!!

You might say it's a more kid-friendly version of the same logo.

The red white and blue cougar in the oval looks a bit Charlotte Bobcatish to me.

 

[Adios]

It's black, not blue. The Nittany Lions' logo does look more "mature"/tame.

That's in bad taste. And I have no taste.

BCU sucks.

Reminds me of Kansas State too kinda.

 

[CL82]

I think the fighting red nitanies will be a great addtion to the league

What a truly, truly ignorant statement this is.

Time will tell sir. Time will tell.

It might not be likely, but you can hardly call a prediction of the future ignorant before it's happened.

Unless you think Syracuse is going to start dominating the FSUs, VTs and Clemsons of the world. You know, after they were world beaters in the Big East.

I continued to be amazed at the lack of comprehension regarding the affect conference affiliation has on a football program. If you go 11-1 in the SEC, BIG, B12, P12, and sometimes the ACC you are in the BCS title discussion. If you go 11-1 in the NNBE, CUSA, WAC or MWC, no one cares.

Recruits know this. Can you have magical seasons? Of course, but it is tough to sustain success and become a 'name' program in a competitive recruiting area when you get no pub.

The only solution is win the big games.

Yeah I can see that, too

 

[lsuconnman]

Looks like south alabama to me...

I have to correct myself. Didn't notice the blue is very dark. Red and black might have "conflicted" Texas Tech's colors. That new Coogs logo does look like South Alabama's logo to some degree.

I may be the only one, but did anyone notice the word BIG in the first several screens - it sure looked a lot to me like the Big X logo.
