Herbie Logo Changed

[B.B. Hemingway]

It's a stupid logo no matter what his hands are doing.

If they had redone the whole thing and not just the hand, nobody would have noticed or cared.

What's wrong with the Herbie logo? Hand gestures aside.

Kinda corny, no pun intended. Too cartoony for my taste or sportswear.

Bah. It's from the time where cartoony logos were often used, and "old school" logos are quite popular right now, so it'd be an odd time to do away with it. What else are you going to do with a nickname like "Cornhuskers"?

beats Bugeaters.    In that case, I guess Herbie would have grasshoppers hanging out of his mouth.

I'd be cool if they went all the way over the top and made our mascot a badass ear of corn. 

It's hard to put my finger on it, but Herbie just feels like a product of 1983, and much like Bonnie Tyler's 1983 hit "Total Eclipse of the Heart" I just don't feel like putting it on.

I've never liked the look of it. Just round and dumb and uninteresting art.

I get it. Out of curiosity, what's some CFB logos that you do like? Out on the cartoonist/mascot style altogether?

I like our old Coliseum logo, obviously. I can't think of any mascots I really like off the top of my head. Not really any cartoony ones.

Uncle Herbie scares the kids.
