SMU marketing shows at least two (and maybe four) different shades of blue, one of which looks a lot like this website's new colors. Hint: It's not the "web colors".

BTW, the athletic web color does not match the public affairs web color. Does anybody over there know what they are doing?

This is the most screwed up outfit I've run across in a long time. They can't even get their colors correct. This is all the more reasons why it needs to be Harvard crimson & Yale blue & be done with it. That would end all this confusion!
