There are some exceptions but we have had some really bad primary logos. And the inconsistency was really hurting us. This started to get better in the late 90s-early 2000s but the apparel and branding was so behind the times for a while.

I am glad we settled on the Geaux Font across the university. It's instantly recognizable. The updated, cleaned up tiger head is also a great mark we need to lean on across athletics.

Love the Geaux Font. It's sharp in its simplicity and those three letters tell a story.

Bump

Geaux lsu logo used on bowl game reveal sucks. You can’t even see it because it’s so small and narrow. Tiger head should be the primary lsu logo. It should also be taken off of our jerseys

I've always hated GEAUX font.... feels more like an outdated pro team logo than a college. Block lettering all day!

The geaux font is really only for print media. Our helmets and jerseys have regular box lettering.

I happen to think it looks glorious compared to other logos. It's simple, elegant, and classy.

If we change it, you’ll miss the current one. LSU fans love to hate something until it’s old and gone. Just like “Neck.” It didn’t start to become popular until it was banned.

Why not use the Tiger face logo on the helmets or what’s on the thumbnail of the mobile app. Simple, clean like a Florida or Ark type logo. Always curious that is never used and it’s the letters we have as our main logo.

There is just something so much more authoritative about sleek lettering than an image of an animal mascot.

I love the tiger head and think it should be used. But for national branding, the geaux font should always be the go-to

Geaux font is fine as a general use, but I think individual sports should stuff that has historically pertained to them.
