I see whenever logos are brought up you all seem to cringe at this. I'm not even for sure which logo it is but I'm guessing it's the tiger with the hat on. Why the hate? Just curious since it doesn't look THAT bad to me.

I'm in the minority because I actually liked it when it was combined with the current logo like this:

It's just as cartoonish as Florida's, so I don't know why ours was a problem.

This is it. It's too busy. The tiger is not in proportion. What's with the purple hurricane thing in the background?

It's awful by just about every measure.

That was the best version of it when they dropped the 3D lettering and purple swirly shite. The cartoon tiger head is just goofy

LSU paid some marketing company something like $2 mill to design something that would appeal to children. They made that midget armed abomination. LSU tried to salvage it by just using the head, and that wasn’t bad.
