National Championship logo

Am I the only person that thinks our national championship logo looks like crap? I have of course bought the merchandise but the more I look at it the more weak it looks

I never liked the idea of a single logo being "the national

championship logo". At first I thought it was the city of Tampa's logo for the national championship. Then I found out it was designed by a Clemson student. I wasn't a huge fan of it, but it is in line with the last few logos for national champs like Glendale, etc., something I didn't even know was a thing until we won. I have bought a ton of national championship merchandise. Some items have it some don't. I never bought something where that was the main thing, but on a lot of things it is on them. I probably will buy a white football and that is the main thing on that, but it also has the game score and schedule.
Bottom line, like someone said before, it has grown on me. I bought a hat that was the best has because it said Clemson and national champ and year on the front. On the side very small is that logo. It doesn't bother me. As time goes by, I'm sure we will all grow more fond of it as it is something that will always remind me of this great event. Bottom line, you can shop around it, or get plenty of good items with it as a side view. I sure hope they don't make that logo the stadium commemoration to the championship though. I hope we do something more along the line of FSU with their national championship signage within the stadium.
In the end, it has grown on me. And bottom line, you know you're having a good year when the big complaint is your national championship logo!!!
Go Tigers!

I agree in the sense I will wear anything that says Clemson and National Champion on it. Gamecock wife I think is growing tired of it

Yes, I can imagine. One other note, the logo for Bama's win

in Glendale is really plain. It doesn't even say Alabama. It has a big A and then crimson tide on it some where and it is almost completely red. It does have a cactus or two, which I think are cool because of the Arizona landscape. Ours has palm trees I guess for Tampa or maybe our state, but I think Tampa.

The palm trees represents the fact that both of Clemson's national titles were won in the state of Florida.

Officially, it is now Regalia, Clemson Orange, and Fort Hill, but I get where you are coming from.

I think starting in the 1970's, the purple was used less

in football, maybe athletics (kind of turned to a navy blue in basketball), but appeared again later on academic stationary.

One might notice that the donor athletic paper was named the Orange and White during that period. Most people seemed to like that better. When I was a kid, I don't remember the North and the South Stands yelling "Orange" and "Regalia" back and forth. *L*
However, I do remember around the time of the Clemson Centennial in 1989 that the president at the time Max Lennon, unveiled a new banner similar to this one:
http://clemson.bncollege.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/18x24_Rafter_Banner/ProductDisplay?parentCatId=40364&imageId=980446&level=&graphicId=RV150818&categoryId=40414&catalogId=10001&langId=-1&storeId=13558&productId=400000085667&topCatId=40350
It brought back the purple briefly, as did the athletic department during the Tommy Bowden era, early 2000's with purple unis and pants. Don't really miss the pants as I recall.

It looks a lot better than the last two championship logos for OSU and Alabama.

Maybe we should give it all back then . How dare a Clemson group help design our own national championship logo and do such a poor job , according to some .

You are not the only person. When I first saw it I was shocked.
It looked like it was designed using basic software from the 80's.
It's pleasant enough....sort of back of a cereal box, 2 color drawing similar to a Fanta Orange Soda advertising.
I would have prefered a more Rolls Royce/Brooks Brothers classy thingy like our media department typically comes up with.
I thought this one was nice:
And this one:

Here are the three so far from the playoff era. They're all in the same family of similarity, but each have their own identity. I don't have a huge problem with it. I'd rather what we have than some obnoxious logo that everyone hates. This will still look classy in ten years.
