Can we talk about the Washington St logo?

Some probably love the WSU logo, but I gotta tell you, I think it's awful. It feels forced into the animal shape, it looks more like a lion than a cougar, the letters aren't nuanced. In theory a good idea, but really poor execution.

Yeah, Mike Leach is a national treasure, but that logo is a disaster.

I always thought it was unique I don’t hate it.

I mean, look at the W. Seriously. That's how you integrate a W into the logo? It's really bad.

I never even realized it had WSU in it until you said something.

As someone who worked in advertising for almost 20 years I can tell you the person who would've brought that design to their creative director would've been fired on the spot.

Legit the worst designed logo in the entire NCAA.

Don't care if I'm in the minority, I like it...and I look for the WSU flag every week on Gameday.

Wrong it’s unique they wanted something people recognize immediately that’s what a logo is for


They were using Cougars with underline in script until that It fits in everything and like the PowerCat and Hawkeye recognizable.

You are right. It looks a lot like that goofy Wisconsin Badgers W. At least Wazzu hides their goofy W inside a cool looking cougar logo.

So you're saying that other logos are not immediately recognizable? Only a terribly designed one?

Reminds me of Katy’s shitty logo (Texas powerhouse).

Thank you for identifying yourself as someone who has no experience in graphic design

No I’m saying it’s recognizable and you can clearly see the WSU and cougar head.

Like this is any better?



Can we make the W any bigger? There's still space left on the helmet.

Old Wisconsin helmets had some style with a smaller W...not this pop-art 1,000 pt font size.

Wish I could give you 5 downvotes. I think it’s one of the best
