checkerboards need to stay on the sidelines/end zones and away from apparel
Have to disagree. I need to see fans in the stands with the checkerboard overalls. I think they're awesome.

Oh I like seeing the reds in those on game day. I was referring to when Butch put checkerboard stripes on the pants and checkerboard rat tails on the helmets

I gotcha. You're talking about on the unis. Yeah, I don't need checkerboards on my classic uniforms.

To be fair, most fans probably believe that they have the best logo and/or uniforms
True, but most are not fans of the Delta State Fighting Okra.

That top one is what I picture as Alabama’s logo, no matter the timeframe.

We all watched too many TMNT as kids

That first one is a bitch to paint

I really didn’t mind the Elephant. Toonces was LSU’s by a mile.

Gotta be honest, I'm not really a fan of any of the older Alabama logos except maybe the elephant standing with the football, and that's probably just sentimental.
I'm more of a purist - I like just the current script 'A' without the ring.

Sports wise? This USC logo that Holtz brought in in the early 2000s. I'm pretty sure it was just a thumb in the eye to the Trojans from his old ND days. We used it on the field as a smaller logo for a bit and then our basketball team started using it. Thank God it's been gone for a while now.
General school rebranding? This shite pile we started last year for no reason at all

Didn't we launch Toonces in 2003 when we won our first NC since 1958?
So the merch sold and the admins were like "people love him"

Pretty much anything OM has come up with in the last 15 years. Particularly the shark stuff

I'm not sure when Toonces was created, Sammy. I really don't mind just the head, but the rest of it is garbage.
Posted on 5/15/20 at 10:23 am to SummerOfGeorge
Don't think this was ever an official university logo but this was used on some branding in the 80's

Yes, the entire "Landshark" thing is an abomination.

"Grrrrrrrrrr"

Whoever designed toonces and whoever approved toonces needs to be beaten with large sticks of bamboo.

Toonces originally started out as a full-body drawing. While not a great piece of art, the head did match the rest of the drawing.
It was a horrible idea to separate the toonces head from its body, and looked even worse when the drawing was altered to fit other iterations of the logo.
The floating head and toonces with a cap were terrible.
