Syracuse Changes Logo

A couple years ago, all teams at Syracuse changed their nickname as well as their logo. They went from the Orangemen and Orangewomen to just the Orange. It also introduced a new official school logo, teaming with Nike to redesign its major athletic uniforms. The new logo for Syracuse consists of an interlocking S and U that is "aggressive" and depicts "speed and a competitive edge". They put their new logo on all athletic uniforms. Unity and color seem the two biggest aspects of Syracuse's move, as the university wants to stress uniformity throughout its athletics department. With Syracuse as the only NCAA Division I school to have orange as its primary color, many officials felt that unifying each sport under the same hue by name was the right decision.
I personally like the new logo better.
