IIRC, that was added during Saban's tenure. It was "LSU" in block letters before that.

It used to be on midfield in the late 80s. Gerry Dinardo claimed that the "eye" was only a regional distinction, and he wanted bold "LSU" at midfield as it would create a national brand when on television.

But you are probably right that it showed back up after Dinardo left and Saban arrived.



Edit: Sev has corrected me, early 90s was when the "eye" first arrived.
