But when was this logo made and introduced? Is it really a vintage logo or just an alternative logo that was made several years ago?
It was never used as the primary logo. I donāt know the origin or what years it was used as an alternative logo. It is trending recently.

not sureā¦but apparently there was an era when every college rolled out a āsailor hatā version of their mascot. Looks like the 1960s

Two things:
- Who gives a ratās rear end what this no-name jerk thinks?
- When he stated, " The world is a better place with more script helmets in it, and I appreciate Oklahoma State doing its part." he is forgetting that hoards of under 30 fans canāt read cursive.

My Central High School Wildcats had that same strutting cat as the UH one.
Not to take away from a pretty popular old fart (alright genX too) gripe, but prob not really relevant. Iām trying to picture a 20 year old squinting at a jersey and thinking āIām at a Michigan state game, but what does that sayā¦ Michigan Dlate?āā¦ not seeing it. Btw UH script is not cursiveā¦ look at that H, look at the r and s.

I donāt think UH ever used a block H as a primary logo. From what I can tell, the interlocking UH in some form was basically our first logo, dating back to a club Hockey team we had in the 30s shortly after we became a University. The letter is designed to evoke a letter sweater, which was the way that varsity letters used to be displayed before modern, baseball jacket style āletterman jacketsā became popular in the 30s.
@Woodedge compiled a pretty comprehensive history a while back.
Ugliest damn woodpecker I ever saw.
I donāt like script helmets, but heck, these are just helmets, and teams have so many different uniform combos and helmet variations that if you donāt like something just wait until the next game and maybe youāll like the next one.

No please no
If weāre gonna do script, Iād prefer it in cursive. Not that looney tunes cartoonish font. Ridiculous
I would like to see an āHā logo.
Just curious. Do any other schools recognize the word āofā in their helmet? This almost seems like a practical joke. If UH paid for that helmet design, they need to get their money back.
I believe that was a helmet that Tony Levine put out for April Fools. It wasnāt ever used.
