News New Mason Athletics Logo Coming Soon?

And in typical Mason fashion, they clumsily announce this when literally nothing else is going on. You could have hedged your bets and announced it after a huge Mason athletic or school event. Nope, let's drop it at the end of April so everyone can focus on how bad it is....Agreed, that if we win noone cares, but it's just another example of Lucy pulling the football away from Charlie Brown.

I’m crass but the image I have is Charlie doing something entirely different with the football while Lucy looks on in disgust.

I'm not as down on it as everyone else is, though I would have preferred the baseball team version of GM. No arrows please.

The burning question I have is ... what ideas and designs were scrapped in lieu of the one they chose?

Yes, would love to see that.

Here is a clip of the logo in use from an email I just received ...

I'm telling you, it's growing on me. Maybe like a bad fungus of which was previously spoken, but I didn't hate it. And that will have to do for now from me. Though the trademark 'tm' is annoying.

Even if I ignore the fact that it looks like a maze and it looks more like C M than GM, the font spacing is bad. Wait till you see what it looks like with an apostrophe. The logo appears to be off center as well (corner of M further away from circle than closest part of the G). The fact that the TM is as big as the team name is bad as well. Do they really think that design is a risk for someone stealing it? It is downright horrible.

We should just have used the "M" - if Miami is the "U" - Mason is the "M"

I've gotta embrace the hate and load up on new gear soon.

Hope we can ditch Adidas and go back to Nike next year.

It's not a G.

It's a C.

No way around it.

[Pikapppatri8]

So how much did the University pay for this?

Only Mason would drop this at a time when most of the country is asking what the hell is going on with college campuses ....

Could have gone with a giant G with a bar across the middle that said Mason. Green and Gold instead of Maroon and Copper.

To whomever asked about the GM merch, they have some on Amazon. I just bought a long sleeve tee, a sweatshirt, and a cap.
Last GMU stuff I will be buying for a very long time...if ever.
