Does your team have a unique font / branding?

The Arkansas post in the color thread got me thinking, which schools have a font unique to their school.

A&M has basically gone all in on the beveling.





Arkansas has their font.


Which remind me of the Texans font.


Outside of fonts I know UK does a great job with the checkboard.




Anyone else?

I'm pretty sure every SEC school has a unique font. It's part of College Sports Marketing 101. I'm not going to post every school's font either. Just trust me.

The blocked lettering is used in all departments besides baseball

I would say Kentucky, A&M, Alabama, and Auburn all have similar block lettering along with several others. A&M and UK brand their stuff with beveling and checkerboards.

Same with Florida, Texas Tech, San Jacinto JUCO, and a few dozen others.

I'm looking for something different. Arkansas's is. UNC does it well with argyle & the same boring block letters.

There is little difference between Mizzou & Florida and then Vandy & MSU.

Many of those circled R's and TM's tie to addresses in Eugene, Oregon.

Besides us and Florida I don't think there are many out there rocking it.

Alabama does not have an athletic department wide font as far as I know. I don't think Auburn does either, but they have some similarities in their Under Armor apparel and wording.

Most of the unique "fonts" are relatively new and directly created by Nike (or Adidas I guess). Tennessee, Georgia, LSU, Arkansas and Kentucky all recently had big releases of total athletic department logo and font makeovers.

VOLS should make this the new secondary logo with our new branding imo. Props to the twitter VOL that made this



Compared to the GOAT VOLS logo which is no longer used

It's still May and we're already scraping the bottom of the barrel with these offseason threads

Bevel my shite up fam.

Also, "Ole Miss" more or less adopted the script as their logo after their mascot was deemed unacceptable for depiction IRL.

I also really like our word-mark. I like the classic script we use for baseball-related things, too. Instead of going all "school colorsy" on the stadium and branding, baseball went for classic "ballpark" feel with everything, and they're the only sport that uses the Old English "A".

The green of Baum provides a nice backdrop for the Cardinal & White.

I will add that most UT fans probably don't know that the beloved Power T was slightly modified by Johnny Majors. No changes since that I know of.

I wish UT had pushed the rifleman theme more than the Smokey Dog theme. It just seems more menacing. Lord knows we need something driven by the visceral and not the focus group.
