If Universities Had Flags Part 5: CUSA
A guy over on the college football sub reddit has been making flags for the I-A conferences. CUSA dropped today. Ours looks pretty sweet.

Not sure the link works. Doesn't work for me, at least.

That guys been doing fantastic with all of the schools, and I really like what he did with ODU's flag. He obviously did some research and didn't just plop a crown on a blue background and call it a day. I made a few tweaks, but that's just cause I personally thought the colors were a bit unbalanced and to satiate my need to include Hudson Blue.

Liked everything right up to the wheat.
Something related to the sea would have been far more appropriate; Fish, boat, Naval ship, etc. Wheat?03-banghead

Fantastic job! Clearly spent time doing research and accurately symbolozing the schools. This person needs to make some cash.

The Seal of the City of Norfolk isn't relevant enough?

It's not bad but I think flags should be relatively simple. Not everyone can pull off Virginia's S&M seal.

Blue background, Hudson blue wavy line the middle to represent the ocean/water, an arc of seven gray stars to represent Tidewater's cities. Something like that.

They missed the biggest and most appropriate image on there.

Sea Grant university.
The bottom right was to represent the City of Norfolk. How did they miss the giant ship with all the sails? When was the last time wheat was a major factor in Norfolk?

Old Dominion is one of very few D1 schools sitting on/near tidal water. That's gotta count for something, no?
