Anyone know how we can find out how well ticket sales are going?

If its good enough for the President of the US, it should be good enough for us. Small donors make things happen.

So does that mean the soccer lines on the football field will be permanent?

Ok, that was mildly snarky, my apologies.

The University of Antelopes?

To keep this on thread, can you port that cool bad ass logo over to the logo discussion? Thanks!

I agree. That's the one i've wanted. And the Syracuse one is HORRIBLY racist. It makes the Washington Redskin look like a member of the ACLU.

Now THAT'S a logo! That's pretty badass if i do say so myself.

And for your effort, please read this, which I think you will relate to...

Well put, JM, I would say Syracuse has been a legendary basketball program for many years, lacrosse too. Anyone here tremble at the sight of an Orange, except maybe those with acid reflux?

I am giving him the respect..by trying to plaster him all over our athletic department and using him to market the school. What's more respectful than that?

Yes..but make the dane larger than the state. and get rid of the University at Albany.

Thank you SO much for doing this.

I have two dogs, thank you very much, including a rescue.

Have you ever seen a Great Dane? They're a pretty goofy looking dog and are about as sweet as possible. The cartoon logo we have, has him narrowing his eyes and sorta sneering. It definitely looks tougher than a real one..and probably slobbers a lot less. Those things are drool factories.

Perusing this site before watching some cuts and noticed that Kansas Jayhawks, Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and a few other VERY legendary sports programs, have logos that you may also find offensive and "jokey"

The opposite of that. Take the Dane with the UA from the shirt on the logo thread and plop him on top of the NYS map./

Check that, i like 1 the best.

Thanks for doing this. i like 5..but can we try the dane..without the shadow print over the Map of NYS?

Yeah, no.

How about we mix the state logo..with the logo of the dog with the UA from the T-shirt..humor me, pretty please?

Eh, its not exciting or interesting. I like the concept but not with the wording. It looks like something that's a logo for a health care provider or a state pension fun. Nothing pops, and its only exciting to us who feel that Albany should be representing the state. It doesn't catch the eye of non-believers.

How about all submit realistic ideas on how to help market the athletics department using existing resources (that doesn't involve "more money") and put together a white paper to send to the marketing guy in athletics, Voekler.

I think i have too much time on my hands at work.

Any one else with any intelligent, realistic, marketing ideas? hands? hands?

But UB is doing that right now. It's a lovely logo, but it doesnt stand out, doesn't separate us from our own SUNY brethren, let alone other schools outside of the state. Put the dog on top of it..now we're talking.

Compromise, people!

Agree with Jammaster, I think you take out the University at Albany part..leave the UA with the Dane over it..Put THAT in the middle of Bob Ford Field and SEFCU.

(Jammaster, great minds think alike. You class of '95? Maybe we shot darts at T's together)

YES!!!!

Exactly what i'm talking about. That pops, that stands out and its unique.

Where is that from? how old?

Hey DaneFan, you said on AGS that the AD said they wouldn't start construction prior to 2015 on the extension (how greedy we are, considering where we were 2 years ago). Is this from the newscast or other info?

What's the local TV situation this year? I hear the Dane Zone coverage will be better
