New black and white color scheme

With all the uniforms, alternate uniforms, Utah red color scheme, other colors etc, should we consider changing our team name?

Instead of the Utah Jazz, just call us Utah?

We are the only statewide professional sports brand outside of the Pacers; every other NBA franchise is a city entity. We have made "Jazz" fit but it's still kind of weird. We could still do throwbacks to it with jerseys and references.

It would have a worldwide soccer brand ring to it. Like Barcelona, Liverpool, etc.

I don't know. Just brainstorming...

This is false on so many levels:

If we’re looking at “statewide professional sport brands”:

Minnesota Timberwolves
Minnesota Vikings
Florida Marlins (Now Miami)
California Angels (Now Anaheim)
Arizona Cardinals
Colorado Rockies
New Jersey Devils

You're right. I missed on the Timberwolves. Golden State doesn't count because California has a number of teams.


The Utah Jazz could go by Utah because we literally are the only major sports franchise in the state.


But that won't happen.

Because it's ****ing stupid.

And Golden State does count. It's the same thing as saying California, not st in a nicknamed version.

And you also forgot the Knicks. They are the New York Knicks, not the New York City Knicks

Anybody with a brain knows what I was getting at.

We are the only ****ing show in the state. No NFL. No NHL. No MLB.

We could scrap the Jazz if we wanted. Honestly, maybe Ryan is already thinking that.

Any team could do that. Houston Rockets could just be Houston. It would all be equally stupid and not going to happen.

And no, Utah Jazz aren't the only pro team in the state. Aren't you Mr I Like Soccer?

Major sports Cy.

Of course any team could scrap their nickname. But all of them, we make the most sense:

Jazz makes no sense
We are only major sports team in state
We already have a state name
We don't have any Jazz titles


We are unique. But it doesn't matter. I don't think we can change our rep because of a jersey or a name change. We gotta win something

I would be fine trading the Jazz name. I dont really care about it that much, but only our team got major compensation. Like lots of future picks or a player that would make a huge difference.

If these are actually our Jerseys they are pretty bad. If they are for a few games, then its fine. If its our man jerseys, that is stupid.

MLS is a major sport.
 
I’m really puzzled by Ryan Smith’s rational on this. Back when news broke that the Jazz would be moving to a black and yellow color scheme, Ryan came out and said something to the effect of the Jazz color pallet being all over the place over the years and a need to forge an identity.

So his answer to that is to come up with YET ANOTHER all new color scheme and font???

The J-Note is one of the most original, and best logos in all of sports for my money. Why not use that, along with the original color scheme in an updated way to solidify their identity? Granted, Ryan Smith is a billionaire and I’m not, but this seems like a massive over think that’s primed to backfire big time.
