Here's the new Nicholls mascot "Colonel Tillou". The old colonel mascot was canned because the NAACP complained about it. They removed all references from the Civil War in it. Check it out.

Yea or Nay?

yeah, my first thought was german too. Couldn't they have just changed the swords colors if it was the gray they were afraid would reference the old rebel uni instead of creating a whole new logo?

Someone just needs to edit out the sword and put in a riding crop, and there you go.

It's not bad - reminds me mostly of Providence.

I liked the old Colonel though much Like I enjoyed Colonel Reb.

I understand the objections from the NAACP though and whatever - it's just a mascot at the end of the day.

Yes I think that logo looks very Stalin-ish in a badass kinda way. They are gonna be known as the Nicholls State Russians now

I was going to say the exact same thing. The communists in the White House should love it.

I like it, and I usually don't like these new logos.
