I so despised that logo. Looked like something an elementary school kid would do.


But yeah, definitely give me the classic logo again.

I have ZERO issues with any of the historic marks OR current marks for UA or Tide sports.

The only one that stunk was the “gangsta” elephant they tried (in the 90’s, I think?). That one sucked. But prior and since have all been fine.

Hell, if the logo is the biggest thing we have to complain about in the next 11 months??? ??????

What a fricking idiot.

Script fonts are effeminate. Use it for women's sports all you want.

What on earth? That is easily the best Bama logo ever made.

And somehow ESPN still chooses to use that early 2000s logo for bball sometimes. I still remember that one being on the court and the south endzone scoreboard when I was in school. It really needs to disappear forever.

Oats likes it too. And we just unveiled some basketball jerseys with the old logo.

As long as we don’t go back to the Angry Elephant I’m fine with any logo.

Apparently that is what he and the guys on the staff, and the guys on the recruiting trail have all been wearing.

I think it'd be a great way to symbolize a change in the guard.

Some items should stay in the past. I'm sure older fans might actually like that logo.


I’ll be 37 in May and I absolutely love the logo. Does that make me an “older” fan?

That’s what Big Al should look like. As long as we’re cleaning house l, we should ditch the current Big Al and make him that. Give him some tusks and let him look like he’s ready to kick some arse. Right now he looks like Micky Mouse’s gay cousin.

Toonces was terrible. What was it with the 90's and the cartoon logos?

We should have never veered away from the block A, the script A is nearly impossible to tell from the Atlanta Braves doesn't have much presence. Wasn't it taken from the rings that coach Bryant used to give to graduates? It should have stayed in that context and not become the main identity. It might be cool as well to encapsulate the Saban era with that script logo. It would be pretty interesting to have it represent that time, since really it was only used for a year or two before he showed up in town.

That said, I'm biased. Pretty much all the Bama gear that I have has the block logo with the elephant.
