To say Auburn fans are upset would be an understatement:
Auburn fans: “we would like upgraded facilities”
University: “new logo”
Fans: “what? no, we want new facilities”
University: “ok we make new logo”
Fans: “NO”
University: “we changed the logo”

Hey @AuburnU, no one likes the redesign. It's called "traditional" for a reason. CHANGE IT BACK
