The eye is tight, but when we lose at home opponents like to put stuff in it like cigars and flags...Bastards.

This one



is in the public domain and is not owned by LSU. That's why you'll see Auburn and Pacific University versions of it. You can't make money off it if you don't own it.


This one



is too much of a mish-mash of colors. It doesn't translate well to 2 colors

and is hard to render in 3. Not sure if LSU ever trademarked it.

This one

is not trademarkable because it's simply words written in fonts LSU doesn't own.

That's why LSU paid to have the proprietary Geaux font created.

Are we looking for suggestions? Cause Hobbes is probably in the top 2 for all the pics of mascots I've seen so far... He's a lot better than anything those University of Phoenix rejects could come up with.

...and I'd love to post said pic, but I don't know how....

Why don't they take a picture of the current Mike and use that as a basis for a logo. Then only change it when we change Mike's, kinda morbid but would be cool.

LSU should just stick with L.S.U. in the Geaux font as its main logo. No one can look at it and be confused as to what it is. It is what UCLA, Oklahoma, TCU and other other schools have done...



I've always wondered why it isn't the LSU logo under the favorite team list here.
