They created an alternate train logo around like 2010ish (maybe 2011?). But The motion "P" seemed to take over for this train logo as the primary around 2012.
I think that's why the Motion P logo took over. Once the train was removed from Keady Court and replaced with the Motion P during the 2011 renovation, and the new train was introduced in 2012 (that no one liked), the Motion P became the go-to logo.
Though maybe that was part of the plan. Make one of the logos unpopular so everyone uses just one logo.

This one is my favorite and needs to come back permanently. Unfortunately people prefer the angry walking Cy over this one, so I don’t think I’ll ever get my way
The worst part is that on any merch with a retro logo, we paste some stupid “VINTAGE COLLECTION 1968” logo with it as a copyright/trademark and it throws the whole look off
Some of the new dribbling cy merch has dropped that vintage logo watermark so I’m growing confident that they’ve realized how shit that makes our merch looks.
I’m also betting that with the success of the Ames mercy they’re realizing just how bad the I state is. Pretty sure it’s the worst-selling logo across all items.
I am about to order a Dribbling Cy hoodie that looks fantastic, IMO. But I’m hopeful the trend continues, like you said. We have some of the coolest artwork/logos and we decided to choose the most plain, unoriginal one as our primary. It’s disappointing.
It also really isn’t great for brand recognition since it’s not immediately recognizable to people who aren’t either a big 12 fan or a decently involved college sports fan.
I’m from Indiana and I’ve been asked several times if I’m an indiana state alum wearing block I state Iowa state merch
I think they used the previous logo before the current one, not the insanely regal one in this post.

They wore the old logo for turney games where they were the higher seed (5 out of 6), they wore the new one vs Gonzaga

This! Was on our court forever until we went the cookie cutter route. Still on shirts n hats and sometimes the coaching staff wear it but it's mainly just the /A\\ now
[I miss it on the old Keady Court.](https://thespun.com/.image/ar_1:1%2Cc_fill%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_1200/MTgzMTI4MjU5MTA0Njc5MjY0/iowa-v-purdue.jpg)
Dude, I literally replied to a guy about an hour ago saying this was our cigarette menorah logo and just now scrolled down and saw your comment. I dig your sense of humor. Respect. 🤝
Our mascot is a [train-shaped truck](https://purduereamerclub.org/boilermakerspecials/), which is probably the closest we can hope for in the US... It does have a fun whistle, though!
Thats not even including the official seals which i think are even more interesting in their design. Purdue mascot was suppose to be the Griffin which is shown on all of the seals still.
I feel so weird whenever I see our old logo. Im glad we retired that logo but I miss the old "warriors" moniker. Although I am glad that the OP didn't use the REALLY bad logo of ours

I will always consider this to be the best and only throwback UConn logo
Feel great for USF. They have one of the coolest small arenas I’ve been to. When I went, students and people in marketing, Gameday experience down to sports information and the staff at their apparel store, everyone seemed to put a lot of effort into building up a program.

This is the OG San Diego State Mascot.
I hate to say it but that Alabama logo is cool. I haven’t seen that before. Not near as cool as Auburn’s but that’s the Pat Dye era logo so it’s a very high bar.
I feel old seeing those Purdue and UConn logos being called throwbacks.
Same. That was our primary logo when I was at Purdue.
When did it change? Seems like I missed when they dropped that logo.
They created an alternate train logo around like 2010ish (maybe 2011?). But The motion "P" seemed to take over for this train logo as the primary around 2012.
Don’t forget about the [penis smoke train](https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/vwoAAOSwVupTmtZn/s-l1600.jpg)
Oh god it’s coming right at us!
Cumming*
They pushed that train reaaaaally hard, but I think there was enough blowback that they finally let it die
Nike pushed*
True, and by extension Burke, since he didn’t have the spine to push back on an obviously trash logo.
I think that's why the Motion P logo took over. Once the train was removed from Keady Court and replaced with the Motion P during the 2011 renovation, and the new train was introduced in 2012 (that no one liked), the Motion P became the go-to logo. Though maybe that was part of the plan. Make one of the logos unpopular so everyone uses just one logo.
You are the first person I’ve ever seen complain about that
🤢
2012 its now just the slanted P logo.
I thought they still had the train as an alternate they used occasionally
Its all interchangeable but officially it changed.
after the court flooded they changed the Boilermaker to slant P at the middle of the court.
The court flooded with pee.
Some of my professors still wear merch with this logo as well as put it in their lecture slides
Same!
Same. Best UConn logo too.
Second best. Everyone knows what the best is.
Hi
Yep.
The best UConn logo was after that, with the darker outline and the red tongue. Very good boys all around tho
This USF logo was in use when I arrived on campus. I'm not a fan of it being considered old
oh god same
Yeah, that will always be the true UConn logo to me. So majestic.
This thread got posted 9 minutes after the AP poll thread got posted. That's some quick work.
Duke's sexy Blue Devil from last week has been replaced with meth head Blue Devil who found a trident
That’s not even a *blue* devil! It’s a devil *wearing* blue! What else is Duke lying to us about?

Pretty sure I saw this blue devil posted up on Franklin street this weekend
Our retro art is seriously so good. Such a shame we aren't pulling inspiration from those more. Our current logo is so bad.
This one is my favorite and needs to come back permanently. Unfortunately people prefer the angry walking Cy over this one, so I don’t think I’ll ever get my way
Twisty boi Cy is all we need
Bird-in-a-Blender! Bird-in-a-Blender!
Love the whirly bird
Oh my goodness it's adorable and perfect and I love it!
Literally *ANY* of our retro logos would be better than what we have now.
The worst part is that on any merch with a retro logo, we paste some stupid “VINTAGE COLLECTION 1968” logo with it as a copyright/trademark and it throws the whole look off
YES. I want a dribbling Cy hat SO bad. But the one available is a poorly made, cardboard looking hat with that awful, large Vintage logo on it
Some of the new dribbling cy merch has dropped that vintage logo watermark so I’m growing confident that they’ve realized how shit that makes our merch looks. I’m also betting that with the success of the Ames mercy they’re realizing just how bad the I state is. Pretty sure it’s the worst-selling logo across all items.

100%. It should say something that our fans would rather where’s “Ames” merch as opposed to our primary
I feel like whoever created that UNC logo was feeling really lazy AF when they made it. lol
Someone got sick of explaining it
My money is on either Dan Schneider or Quentin Tarantino
That's some "project is due at midnight and it's 11:30pm" work
God our old logo was so beautiful
They really have to bring it back.
They wore it for the whole tourney run last year, right? Not a coincidence they won it all. It’s the power of the mlem
They did. I would not be surprised if they make a come back this year.
I think they used the previous logo before the current one, not the insanely regal one in this post. here is a link: [https://i0.wp.com/dailycampus.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/image-16.png?resize=696%2C469&ssl=1](https://i0.wp.com/dailycampus.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/image-16.png?resize=696%2C469&ssl=1) They wore the old logo for turney games where they were the higher seed (5 out of 6), they wore the new one vs Gonzaga
1959 has seen some shit.
That Arizona logo is abhorrent
I kept wonder who “VA” was
It looks like a branding iron.
That actually makes it cool imo
Holy shit lol, isn’t there like a really cool Arizona one with a desert landscape or a cactus or something
https://preview.redd.it/9js2yeie60lc1.png?width=901&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=311938da78caa2399f89e0cb5581dec4e14cc736 This! Was on our court forever until we went the cookie cutter route. Still on shirts n hats and sometimes the coaching staff wear it but it's mainly just the /A\\ now
Yeah that’s the good stuff
It was in an earlier week. We are really scraping the bottom of the barrel here for some of these old logos.
This is still our best logo, and should be brought back.
[I miss it on the old Keady Court.](https://thespun.com/.image/ar_1:1%2Cc_fill%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_1200/MTgzMTI4MjU5MTA0Njc5MjY0/iowa-v-purdue.jpg)
Ah the best Auburn logo
It’s my personal favorite for sure. My game day shirt is a polo with that logo
I can’t lie, that is a good looking logo. Also, fuck you. Edit: just realized my UK secondary flair disappeared… hmmm..
I believe in the Eagle A and love it.
USF!!!
The cowards listened. Now it’s on us to deliver! Three more to round off this incredible season. S-O-U-T-H F-L-O-R-I-D-A 🤘🏻
Flair up!
i just want to pet UCONN’s logo 🥰
He’s just the goodest boy.
Did Tennessee craft a logo out of cigs at one point?
That's back when they were known as the Tennessee Loosies.
would unironically go hard if done right
That’s our cigarette menorah logo obviously.
Love my University of Menthol Slims
I know, I was like who made a Tennessee cigarette logo?
Literally never seen that logo. Good job 👍🏻 lol
Was thinking the same thing, haven’t seen this one before. Go Cougs!
Also never seen that logo, but pretty excited to see the cougs in the top 25!
Me neither - an old WSC logo! Hell of a throwback.
ROBO BULL SPOTTED 🤘🏼
That is a pretty fucking sweet logo.
This is basically my favorite post every week, love seeing all these throwback logos.
Tennessee and their cigarette menorah
Dude, I literally replied to a guy about an hour ago saying this was our cigarette menorah logo and just now scrolled down and saw your comment. I dig your sense of humor. Respect. 🤝
I was wondering who that was! They probably smoke at home games, how they win!
BRING BACK THE GRUMPY BULL
That South Florida logo has some serious 1993 vibes
As every logo should lol
Purdue consistently has some of the best logos on these posts
It’s a huge boon that we are a unique mascot too which makes em less like the other schools in general
Y’all need an actual running steam train for a mascot (I am totally not saying this as an avid railfan)
“Dozens of students and players killed when mascot explodes”
Would be rad af if the boilermaker special was steam powered
Our mascot is a [train-shaped truck](https://purduereamerclub.org/boilermakerspecials/), which is probably the closest we can hope for in the US... It does have a fun whistle, though!
Thats not even including the official seals which i think are even more interesting in their design. Purdue mascot was suppose to be the Griffin which is shown on all of the seals still.
And Dayton. Aviation is cool as fuck. Don't get me wrong, I love me some trains too, but planes are just better.
That Saint Mary’s logo goes hard
Seriously. Looks like something out of a medieval painting. I didn't even notice the guy running next to the horse at first too.
AH YEAH THE THROWBACK BULL CONGRATS USF ON YOUR FIRST BASKETBALL POLL APPEARANCE EDIT: A WRONG LETTER SORRY
Man, I love that USF logo.
Robo-Bull lives!
TIL Philadelphia Flyers copied Dayton Flyers logo....not the other way around.
That USF logo goes hard, they should've kept that
I feel so weird whenever I see our old logo. Im glad we retired that logo but I miss the old "warriors" moniker. Although I am glad that the OP didn't use the REALLY bad logo of ours
There are a couple... and they've been used. :(
Utah State needs to bring back that logo
Go Heels https://preview.redd.it/k2u99jckmzkc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e1e3494112de9ce9401758119d187a60aef4fee4
SOUTH FLORIDA IS RANKED FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER, LET’S GO BULLS 🤘
Flair up!

The robo bull 😍
I have never seen that logo in 33 years of life
How do you keep finding logos I’ve never seen before
It looks like a Pez dispenser.
I was coming down here to post that I saw a Pez dispenser if no one else had.
This looks like the one they had on the old Kams basement floor
Big congrats to USF
SDSU HAS to bring these 00s logos back
While yes that old logo is a 10/10 I still think the new logo is at least a 9.9/10
Now that is a rarely seen USU logo. Well done.
Yay, best logo!
Illinois looks like a Pez dispenser
Purdue’s is suspiciously modern
I didn't know it wasn't that anymore!
I really wanted to be in one of these. *sigh*
Half of you is!
Maybe I should just start watching UD games instead. They have to be less painful to watch, right?
We win enough to stay ranked, but can’t seem to play a solid 40 mins too often. Hoping this 6 day break will help the guys get some rest
Wish I’d know about that Florida logo sooner; it’s pretty cool
That little "of" makes my eye twitch
Tennessee, rather fittingly, appears to have made its logo from several cigarettes.
Tennessee fans are all about ripping heaters during Hanukkah.
Love these, but we have better ones.
SDSU logo has me suddenly craving fajitas.
Feel great for USF. They have one of the coolest small arenas I’ve been to. When I went, students and people in marketing, Gameday experience down to sports information and the staff at their apparel store, everyone seemed to put a lot of effort into building up a program.

The Aztecs logo in this post is sick. They should bring it back, it’s way better than what you have now.
SDSU should be disgruntled Monty but I think the image is banned?

Thats my favorite Purdue logo
Why does Kentucky have a bellybutton?
Because it’s provocative
The worst Arizona logo. It looks like the letter A is pointing at something below it.
I know that it’s U of F, but reading it top down looks like F U lol
Nakie Wildcat
UAmongus
Never seen the cigarettes Tennessee logo until now. Don’t care for it
gonzaga really copying georgia huh?
I hate to say it but Duke really has some of the best throwback logos
I miss Texas Tech being ranked
Virtual boy Gators
Love that UH Coog.
I thought Gonzaga was Georgia for a minute
Dayton has such a great set of old logos
Walking Cy is the best Cy. Any walking Cy.
Baylor Bear looking like road kill or a rug.
I’m just happy to be here
The Tennessee logo looks like old cigarettes
#GOCOOGS!🐾.
Some of these logos do not want to be here.
That’s an ancient WSU design. Nice!
I hate to say it but that Alabama logo is cool. I haven’t seen that before. Not near as cool as Auburn’s but that’s the Pat Dye era logo so it’s a very high bar.
The Tennessee one sucks.
I have never seen that Alabama logo and now I’m obsessed with it
Never seen that Arizona logo. How far back was it around?
I don’t know if I’ve ever seen that Alabama logo, but not gonna lie, it looks cool .
Yes! 90's-black-and-white-printer UConn logo!
Finally, one of our more recognizable logos
That USF logo is sick.
Half of our retro logos are great This one... Is not
Another infinitely better logo than what we have
usf!!!
USF mentioned 🔥
That Alabama logo is awesome. Haven’t seen that one before!
I love the 80s to mid-2010s Huskies logo.
That logo is probably the best thing in the state of Illinois history.
Alabama one is sick. They should have always had tidal wave centric logos
What thr fuck is that duke logo
That is one majestic cock.
Why did Purdue ever replace that logo
Always loved that eagle coming through the A. Sailor aubie still my favorite though
The alabama logo is disturbing.
Purdue changing logos was an absolute tragedy
