One "N" To Represent Them All: UNL to adopt red Huskers design as university's main logo

Can't they just please bring back blonde, coverall wearing Herbie and burn Lil red. And yes get rid of the Mississippi State block style ripped off logo and go strictly to the cursive script one

 

I like the old Herbie with blonde hair and overalls. I actually like Lil Red, too. I really like the Block N. I love the Stick N on the helmets. Not a huge fan of the old script Huskers, but also hate the new Huskers logo too. I wish the athletic department would use the term Cornhuskers more, and save Huskers as an "abbreviation".

 

I talked to a friend of mine who used to work for one of the popular Husker merchandise stores for several years, and he said beyond the usual jerseys, polos, hats, etc..the items that they would constantly have to restock the fastest were anything that had the old vintage Herbie Husker on them.

 

 

Who did away with that Herbie Husker? I would like to will my dislike of that person to my descendants in perpetuity.

 

When I was at UNL in the 90s, the Herbie Husker had blonde hair and the funky face, but he wore a football uniform to most football games. When Steve Pederson came aboard in the 2000s, one of the first things he did was give Herbie a makeover. He took away the overalls, beer belly, and blonde hair. He made him more buff, threw on a red shirt and blue jeans, along with brown hair.

 

So now I have a legitimate reason to dislike Pedersen. Fantastic!

I have a hat with the old Herbie on it. It's my favorite Nebraska hat.

I have a hat with the old Herbie too. I love it. I also look for t-shirts with the old Herbie, as well as Cornhuskers wording.
