    Tampa Bay Buccaneers 1 The Rebranding of Franchise: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Tamara O’Donnell Sport Branding, JOUR 536-701 Professor Cliff Shaluta November 30, 2014 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2 Abstract The Tampa Bay Buccaneers is the twenty-seventh franchise of the National Football League and have gone under a major shift in the brand recognition in recent years. Contributions such as a new stadium, new color scheme, and changes to management and leadership backed the branding efforts to change the identity of the organization with the media, fans, and city of Tampa. Malcolm Glazer and his sons headed the rebranding efforts for the franchise and would lead them into success for a number of years. As can been seen with the Buccaneers, a new image is not going to be captured overnight, but will happen through a number of small issue changes that contribute to the bigger picture. Ultimately, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers were successful for a number of years and have continued their efforts to bring a positive organization identity to the city of Tampa, FL. Tampa Bay Buccaneers 3 The Rebranding of Franchise: The Tampa Bay Buccaneers The National Football League has teams located all over the United States, covering the different regions of the country one – sometimes two – teams at a time. The state of Florida happens to be home to three of these teams – the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Miami Dolphins, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have set themselves up to be known as an organization that has a positive brand association and brand value among fans, executives, the National Football League, and the media.

There have been articles about how the music industry has transformed the way in which Americans think about African Americans. The New York Times today has a piece on how American film has contributed to the transformation of American society. There have been numerous comments on the significance of the civil rights movement in preparing for this moment in our history. There has been more than a little discussion of the role sport has played in changing the perception of African Americans in the United States.

New levels of futility were achieved as the Bucs turned in their tenth consecutive season in which they have lost at least ten games. And the Bucs don't just lose, they lose in new and creative ways. This is a team of legendary incompetence, whose poor performance over a sustained period of time is earning them a special place in the history of the NFL. To sustain this level of ineptitude is not easy. Everyone must contribute, and there must be a simultaneous run of bad luck.

  • Buccaneers' Team Travel

    PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME TEACHER ACTIVITY GUIDE 2019-2020 EDITIOn TAMPA BAY BUCCAnEERS Team History Awarded the National Football League’s 27th franchise in 1974 with the first kickoff scheduled for 1976, owner Hugh Culverhouse, a successful Florida tax lawyer and broker, hired John McKay as the first coach of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. McKay had achieved great success at the University of Southern California with four national championships in his 16 years and it was McKay who orchestrated the building process that led to the Buccaneers’ stunning early success. After losing a league-record 26 consecutive games, the Bucs broke into the win column at New Orleans on December 11, 1977. Two years later, Tampa Bay stunned the football world when it reached the 1979 NFC championship game in only its fourth season. The Bucs clinched the NFC Central title with a dramatic 3-0 win over Kansas City in a driving rainstorm and then defeated Philadelphia 24-17 in playoff action to advance to within one game of the Super Bowl. But in the NFC championship, the Los Angeles Rams prevailed with a hard-fought 9-0 victory. One of the hallmarks of Tampa Bay’s early success was an excellent defense led by Hall of Fame defensive end Lee Roy Selmon, who was the Bucs’ first draft choice and the number one pick of the 1976 NFL draft. In his nine-season career, Selmon was named to the NFC Pro Bowl team six times and was selected as the NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 1979.
