I like it a lot. No complaints here.
No its not a nickname anymore. We are now officaly UConn is all but formal documents.
“As an institution, for years we have made use of ‘UConn’ as an institutional nickname of sorts,” Herbst said. “Recognizing that there is great value and recognition in this unique identifier, going forward, we are adopting ‘UConn’ as one primary visual wordmark for the entire institution.”
IMO Sleek = Oregon State Beaver in Husky form. People here are gonna go ape . I'm cool with it though.
Agreed on both fronts. I think OSU sheds a lot of light.IMO Sleek = Oregon State Beaver in Husky form. People here are gonna go ape . I'm cool with it though.
Should have told that to Drummond!"This is Illustrator! This ain't MS Paint!"
ducking classic.
Sorry, the beaver sucks. I wouldn't even guess it was a beaver if I didn't already know.
The 1959 logo has a lazy eye. It's kinda hilarious.
Eh, I disagree. Actually I've been wanting them to move back towards the "Connecticut" name for a long time now. We're a flagship state university with increasingly impressive academics. We shouldn't always be referred to by a nickname. And yeah, it's still totally a nickname.
Because if you are playing UConn "It's curtains for you!"And I favor retaining the new April 18th logo and our new nickname, the UConn Blue Drapes.
Anybody good at illustrating a mascot morph? I would like to morph our current Husky logo and Johnathan the mascot's head, tweak it with a little cartoonish magic and a touch of Nike and see what kinda sleek looking Husky comes out...or I could just wait another two weeks.
if geno can get to the NC, they should let his ladies showcase the new logo on the national stage. his program has earned it...
I like where you're heads at but the reveal date has been advertised as 4/18. Knowing our marketing department they'll be pulling an all-nighter on the 17th to finalize this thing.
Ya have to admit they've stepped up their game w/the social media messaging and videos?
(not that the bar was very high previously in that regard)
Sounds like a return to the NYG style "UCONN" football helmets. That or the new Jonathan.
