Maybe because people like you keep dogging it? There's not even proof they're reworking a logo. This looks stitched, so if anything this could be a patch on a throwback or something. Relax GHD, although we all know that's not possible with you

I'm perfectly relaxed. I saw some overworked military imagery and commented accordingly. I thought that was allowed on this forum. Or are we only allowed to post TEAM SHIELD and pump our chests?

For comparison, here is some really cool imagery that is completely consistent with the rebrand.

I'm just hoping that this means some more new apparel could be in stores soon. Can't wait to get myself a hoodie for the Fall/Winter

Eh... overworked to say the least. Given that we just rebranded, why are they making up entirely new logos?

this is just for the recruiting class. Beckman like gives them weird nicknames. 2015 is the Fighting Force. It's pretty dumb. it's not something anyones gonna see

Recruits and commits are constantly using the "Fighting Force" term so it's not dumb to the people who matter.

Has anyone heard or seen when the new football jerseys go on sale? My old one is ready for the scrap heap (the numbers are peeling off) and I'm hoping to get one for the upcoming season.

i've seen pictures of a few showing up in stores for other schools, so i imagine it's only a matter of time. That being said, I hope they offer both the cheaper model and the nicer, sewn-on model. We aren't a priority football school for NIKE when it comes to apparel but I'd hope they treat us right in this regard with the new uniforms.

They used the wrong font! ;)

This bothered me a lot. I get that they use the same template for all the teams for the "sideline exclusives" as it were, but you'd think they could at least use the school-specific fonts instead of just one standard one accross all the schools. They did this last year as well. At least there's some :shield:action in there.
