News New Mason Athletics Logo Coming Soon?

I’m surprised the admin folks in the pic with the new logo don’t have bags over their heads.

With all the negativity throughput the launch of Mason's new logo it makes me wonder who the test group was, or, dare I say, if there even was a test group.

Gee, I wonder if this abomination came from the same design firm that did the logo for University of Wisconsin-Green Bay?

Can someone tell me why this logo reflects diversity and inclusion like Dr. Washington and others are babbling on about? I have no idea, is it just because it doesn't technically spell out "George" or "Mason?"

The logo is bad. In addition, this school's branding has to be "Mason." That's what alums name their f###ing kids and dogs. Mason.

GM is a car company. "George" is shared by another school 20 minutes away...

Everything sucks. Maybe Mason Day will cheer me up, paying 35 bones for Neon Trees.

Just kidding, that sucks too.

We rag on vcu but they are now more selective in their admissions process than us and anyone of their worthless art school grads could have drawn a better logo than this.

It is time for cleansing fire

Add a “G” and maybe a “U”. why over think this? The quill needs to stay.

That isn’t an athletics logo either..

No, but they shouldn't ditch it. It should still adorn their merch.

I don’t hold the same feeling for the quill as others. I also don’t care about whatever the university mark is. I want a logo that looks good on center court, jerseys, etc.

Should be

Should be

We disagree. The M with the quill doesn’t belong on any athletic surface, jersey, or apparel.

I always like the quill logo with the Mason focus. I wish athletics used that over the star.

But alas, we have what we have. Until the next rebrand in 2044.

i agree, but i would much rather have it (or a modernized version) as a holdover vs. this current soulless clip art canva "graphic design is my passion" looking logo

It’s the closest thing to an identity Mason has ever had, if you care about that kind of thing.

 

[illayin]

what would be revolutionary, if not a bit (very) sell out, would be the quill logo with the adidas three stripes instead

 

[Masonman]

This stuff should be moved to the "Hate" thread!
