It was supposed to be a big secret until June 1st. But, somehow it escaped from its cage early. Fiercer, stronger, badder, it was supposed to be the the new thing for a new realm. It is.....
I have an idea, let's examine the thought process for the new logo!
Mr Goin: The Athletic Department has a 35,000 dollar surplus, how can we possibly blow that?!
President Zimpher: We could lower tuition by a dollar, or better yet, why not use that money so that we can implode Crosley Tower in a spectacular fashion!
Mr Goin: But how does that crap benefit the Athletic Department?! IT DOESN'T! I have a better idea....
Time Passes...
Mr. Goin: Hello Mr. Designer.
Mr. Designer: Hello Mr. Goin.
Mr Goin: I have proposition, I need you to waste 35000 dollars and create a new logo for us. What do you have in mind?
Mr. Designer: I could italicize the logo for you, market it as super secret, and when it finally is revealed you'll have some publicity because of how nondescript it is.
Mr. Goin: What does nondescript mean?
Mr. Designer: Excellent.....
I don't know what UC was thinking when the commissioned this other than that they wanted to piss off a bunch of people for making the new logo pretty much the same as the old one save for the italics and the swoosh C. Wow, it's so special. They could have hired me for 50 dollars and I could have replicated something similar in fashion. Do the right thing UC, ask for your money back.
For those of you who have never seen the orignal C-Paw, here is a picture of it:
NOTE: The Conversation created is FAKE, please don't take it seriously.
