You can hate my argument all you want, but it's the truth. Maybe not so much on just ESPN, by just college sports fans, but people know the I-State logo and brand now nationally, no reason to scrap it for a tornado that looks like poo upside down.
LOL. In our defense, the 1920s didn't have the poo emoji. Ha.
Let's not get off path here. No one is suggesting that we use that mock 1920s throwback, but rather amestoplease's concept. Also, no one is advocating getting rid of the I-STATE logo, but rather adding the Cyclone as a secondary logo right next to Cy. Seems logical, right?
After all, look at so many other schools using both a "school" logo and an "iconic" logo:
Many other schools have three logos: the standard school athletic logo, the design logo, and the mascot logo. For example, Arizona State pictured above has the ASU logo, the trident logo, and the sun devil mascot logo.
Right now Iowa State has the I-STATE logo, __________ (no logo for the school nickname), and the Cy mascot logo. Does that make more sense?
