I’m starving, waiting for my Uber Eats and read that. Sounded delicious. Haha
There was something like that on the Hofheinz Pavilion court during the PSJ days. Butt ugly!!
Dustin, do not fall off from your New Year’s resolutions.
There is light at the end of the tunnel…just not a ketchup light.

My memory is that there were 4 of those logos a making a circle at center court. Late 1970s, early 1980s. Does anyone remember that?
A+ for @UHRedCat
I’d be fine with that. Someone on here said that for some reason the logos of the school and the AD always had to be different. To me, the 95-98 years were the 3 lone years where school and Athletics were aligned. if you look at out football pants in the R&S days, we had UH logos on our hips that were different from our helmets and much more like the legacy logo/95-98 log. Such confusion.
I do not believe there is any reason that they HAVE to be different. I would say it makes sense in branding though.
It has to do with who controls the use of the logo. Athletics controls the usage rights to main logos and dont want to have to give permission to colleges to make t-shirts ect, so they use a second logo. I worked for RHA when I was in college and we had to get permission to use the current athletic logo on t-shirts not hard but a pita.
Didn’t like this at first but like it after thinking about it.
There are a couple out there for small colleges, but UH could definitely pull it off.
That makes sense.
That was the academic logo when I was at UH. Remember seeing it in the giant class catalog (a joke in the Architecture school, was the reason we picked architecture as a major was because it was the first major listed in the catalog!). Back then I believe UH also called the main campus University Park.
Yep. But the only time I remember seeing this logo was on my parking permit.
I believe they had it on the way finding signs.
Ugly, but i wished UHCL wouldve done 4 interlocked like that
