The new one on the helmet is not bad but it's so uniform and has no personality. I prefer this older one. It looks real, mean and out of its pissed off tiger mind.

The slight asymmetry makes Mike look crazy pissed

Current logo absolutely paid proper respect to the previously best “bullet” logo. Sailer Mike is unique but not seems like he needs a cigarette hanging from his lips.

Sailor Mike and the traditional Mike head only.

All others suck.

My purest favorite is the psycho bengal...BUTTTTT...

I can understand how it was difficult from a design standpoint. It's chaotic and asymmetric.

The one we have now means we get that attitude and ethos back, while the symmetry and slight simplification make it easy to replicate, thus increases it's longevity through marketability.


It's the best in a long time and has the potential for staying power

I think it was a group out of NY, Phoenix Design Group?
They did several universities and they all have the same style.
Yep, that’s them ….

The firm responsible for the design of Toonces.
Phoenix Design Works

AND … remember … it was signed off by someone in our building.
They also need to be flogged.

I love the look, but can't stand that Auburn claims it as well and still uses it. Went down a rabbit hole of its history a while back, it was first designed for and used by some small college in California IIRC.

The combination of toonces and Ellis Hugh - both in effect in the early 00s - was really an amazing 1 2 punch. The absolute nadir of graphic design. It's almost impressively bad that those two made it past committee
