Our current mascot logo is a classic.
I agree. I can't believe so many people don't like the current logo. I wish we slapped the smiling husky on the side of our football helmets.

I think we can all relate to the 'angry Husky' after the last 12 months of BS. Is there any way to incorporate F%$K THE NCAA into our new logo??This has been in the works for awhile now. From what I've gathered, the logo will change to be more "angry", Nike may create new jerseys for our sports teams (at least the high profile teams), and there's been talk of the university branding itself as "UConn" instead of the "University of Connecticut" for everything including academics, similar to UCLA.
I'm going to miss the old logo though. I even have a couple Fatheads around the house bearing the old husky logo that will soon be obsolete (I'll call it vintage). Also, quick factoid: I don't know who determines this sort of thing.... but apparently our current "husky" logo isn't actually a husky. It's a malamute, which, if you look it up on google, looks exactly like a husky, but has some slight differences.
They've been discussing it and developing designs for a while, but it's in the final stages - just a matter of figuring out when they want to reveal and start using it. The Co-op bookstores have put a halt on ordering new merchandise with the current husky on it.
I'm confused - is it the mascot or logo that is getting an update? I like the Mascot, but the logo could use an upgrade. We also need to standardize all our logos and word marks which could be tricky because for football and in the block C logo we don't have any red like we do in the basketball uniforms.
Maybe Jonathan has rabies?? That might be a good look - foaming at the mouth.The husky dog is changing to become meaner looking. I don't have any information on the text logo(s).

This was always my favorite logo and thats why i have it as my picture. I was kind of mad when they ditched this for the current one. This is actually a very important decision so i hope they dont screw it up.1) Ditch the red
2) Ditch all the 'UC' logos
3) Goes with 2, but the men's and women's basketball logos are different. Use the football block C on their uniforms
4) I think a 'mean' looking Husky would be tacky. I would like a modernized version of this - not the cartoonish looking one we have now.
Puupppppppppppppppyyyyyyyy power!
I received confirmation today that UConn will changing its husky into more a meaner looking husky dog. Maybe Herbst thinks a more badass mascot will answer our realignment prayers?
Imagine how many championships Calhoun could have won if the logo looked meaner. What a shame.
This dog looks like it just walked out of a gay bar.Would love to have the block C hanging on the husky head like this one:
