Off-season Logo Talk

Green Nightmare · January 20, 2009

and the only topics we could muster were logo ones.

I've never been a fan of many of the past logo's but we should have stuck with this one

2:00 kickoff?? Geez, it's almost as if UNT once considered itself equal to other college programs. Glad they came to their senses, accepted reality, and decided on the oddball 6:00pm kickoff so that our fans won't miss Longhorns games.

Huh. I'd never thought of that before. I'd always assumed via the number of people I know who can't show up until 4 on the average Saturday that it has just become a much more common work day than it was 35 years ago.

My memory may be failing me, but it seems when I was a student most games started around that time. First couple of games each season were night games, but after that, they were pretty much day games.

P.S. Thread successfully highjacked on the first reply.

I think Logos are good.

:mellow:

MeanGreengdub · January 20, 2009

I like logos also!

H-towngreen · January 20, 2009

I like logos on helmet stickers

greenjoe · January 20, 2009

And speaking of the Longhorns, of the 7 games played in Austin this season, 4 started at 6:00pm or later

GoMeanGreen1999 · January 20, 2009

I used to mind starting the things around 6, but with tailgating now, I am glad they wait till 6. That and it is so hot so late into the season.

Since we can't seem to get any green in our warmups, I am not focusing my time onto helmet stickers.

Stuck with which one? That linked "NT" logo or the "Eagle" above it? That version of a linked NT was never used as an official logo. The Stylized Eagle, or Flying Worm as some warmingly refer to it, was our official logo under Hayden Fry. Good times and wins then compared to now.

And I especially like your logo.....on the chest of Scrappy.....the real Scrappy.

The linked NT. Would look great on some white helmest for the last 30 years

However I am resigned to the tradition of there being no tradition and that our logo will change always. Although I hope we can hang onto this eagle we have now the SOW

Have you ever been to a game in Fouts at 3pm? We had a lot games with a 3pm kickoff while I was a student, and the student side is a cookout. I was very pleased when they started pushing back game time so I could actually enjoy the games instead of getting dehydrated at the end of the first quarter.

Let go of my Logo.

You know, it is not a good idea to start at six anymore. Now with ABC showing the Saturday Night College Football matchup of the week, we go head to head against the biggest names in the game.

I say lets start at eleven or noon. We can drink afterwards. It will be relatively cool and we don't have to use the lights so we will save a lil on generators.

What do you think?

Of course we will be still going up against the Big Ten (11) games and early Big 12 games.

What about doing the Thursday night games a la Big East? No one around here really follows that league.

I enjoyed the day game because the light was better, Fouts is DARK.

Actually, I take that back from the 50's to the 35 or so the light is... ok... after that, it seems to be lit by a single incandescent hanging from each goalpost.

PerryG2480 · January 21, 2009

Ahhh...I miss some of the old logo discussions from the past. Here are a few old images I found from back then (what was I thinking on some of these?).

Was pretty close with this helmet prediction.

This one too.

Just messing around.

The theme I wanted when the new logo choices had come out.

An old helmet logo I wanted.

Another logo I wanted.

PerryG2480 · January 21, 2009

Yet another.

Helmet idea.

Just some fun North Texas images.

The original signature which is still floating around here in altered forms.

Halloween after new logo announced.

Anyway, does anyone have any of Austin Talon's or meangreendork's old stuff?

Umm...some of us are still perfectly capable of drinking before hand, thank you.

DeepGreen · January 21, 2009

To Perry-

Nice helmets. :blink: Stick to playing your guitar.

greenjoe · January 21, 2009

Last year or the year before, someone came up with a helmet graphic that I really liked. I even showed it to RV.

It was a green helmet with the new Eagle logo almost too big for the helmet. It wrapped around the helmet and had a mirror image on the other side.

Anyone got that ?

I believe it was Smitty that posted those. I did a quick search, but the pictures were not still up in the threads that I looked at.
