News New George Mason Logo

[Falco]

Court looks okay-- it is a positive that the new logo is cleaner than the old one, albeit underwhelming, pointless, and stupid.

I can't wait to follow the yellow brick road while dribbling on the green in adult fantasy camp

Honestly I would take the old logo over this

I don't know why they feel the need to put the trade mark with it... I can assure them, no one is stealing that ugly a** logo. No can anyone really capitalize on it. I still haven't seen one random person in public wearing the logo.

Thank heaven they remembered to put the TM on the court.

Why couldn't they just put the GMTM in the center? It sucks, but it does look better when it is in a green ball.

And the fact that the half court line doesn't even line up with the middle of the "yellow brick road" makes it look pretty amateurish.

Yellow brick road. Love that.

This does look better but I still think Patriot Man wearing the GM hat would have looked better on the court than any of the pure GM only options.

OMG didn't notice this at first, that's horrific.

For the most part I'm over the logo, but I can't stand how they feel the need to include the "TM" icon on absolutely everything. Use on digital? Maybe some print assets? Fine. But slapping a very noticeable "TM" on half court and every piece of merch is so stupid.

The symbol "TM" usually means that it isn't an officially registered trademark. I guess this compels Mason to include it wherever the logo is used (including the basketball court).

Yeah, I'm pretty much over it too. It is what it is. But the misaligned line is awful!

while i agree it looks bad when you look at that part, that is the literal center of the logo width-wise. so, all they did was center the logo

Yes, my point was that it is another example of how poorly the logo was designed that it wasn’t taken into account that you were going to put it on a court. Or, knowing you were creating an oddly balanced logo, that you didn’t do something like @Walter suggested and put it inside a bubble to prevent the illusion that you didn’t get centered properly.
