Logo

I think we have one of the best colors (KeaneyBlue) and Logos, the Rams Horns. But now, it is almost impossible to find anything with the Ram Horns logo. This is awful. The Horns are cool.

Obram I hate when I get the daily deals from Groupon and they have all these cool NCAA swag and then you realize that the only teams available are the big college football teams :( Hurts my soul each time.

Ram Horns? I believe those are found on the crotch of the basketball shorts.

The Rams Spirit Shop in the emporium still sells a bunch of stuff with the ram horn logo. Its where I buy most of my gear.

I've mentioned this for years that we need horns. A combination of the "RI" and ram would be preferable. VCU's logo is great precedence. Even now, I see our logo next to opponents logo's and it feels and looks like a cookie cutter shape. Colors are fantastic though.

Messed around with the current logo and the former ram logo, something I hope to see one day.

I'd like to see the top of the R/ram horn a little cleaner/less cluttered, but otherwise this is outstanding.

So the other thread reminded me of this idea for redoing the logo. I think if the horn was rotated a little bit so top of the R was just the horn I'd think you'd have a winner. You'd have the RI so we'd be instantly distinguishable from other teams with a ram mascot, and the old ram logo would live on in the newest logo.

I would also have the I the same color as the bottom half of the R so that only the horn would be lighter blue, making it easier to tell that you're creating a horn design with the top of the R

I want the RI and words RHODE ISLAND used more. It will better tie the URI athletics programs to the state and its residents. Think MICHIGAN. They hardly ever use the wolverine or the school's official name (University of Michigan). It is usually just MICHIGAN.

I like the spelled out RI, bold and blue so it doesn't have any relation to RIC. I like two logos like in the other thread, but I also like VCUs combined Ram and words logo.

Rhodymob05, I'm not sure if you still have this design, unfortunately it no longer shows up in this thread, but this was what I was getting at in the anchor branding thread

Well, Clemson has the Tiger Paws, they look great to me. They use it all over, and at midfield on the football field.

Heres that logo I put together. I just took the rams logo horns and placed it on an "RI". It would be cool for a real graphics designer to take this and run with it.

I like it. Maybe a brighter Rhody Blue, just so it stands out better, but I think we can do a lot better with incorporating the Logo
Hopefully someone will take notice.
