I think some would question my fanhood because I cringe everytime I see this logo. It is so dated looking, so amateurish.
Here's the story...
Some time back in the 80's the then Yosef Club president went to his/her local high school art class and challanged the students to come up with a new logo. The rules were: 1) Ditch Yosef's pipe and gun because those two objects are politically incorrect. 2) Yosef should look like Daniel Boone. 3) Incorporate a mountain theme.
Well all the kids went home that afternoon to start working on the project. They found a picture of the Daniel Boone and the creative juices really starting to flow. But then, the best and soon to be logo award winning young artist, decided to watch a little tv. How can a kid turn down the opportunity to watch Pirates of the Caribbean sponsored by Gorton's Fisherman?
The moral of the story...TV rots the brain and ruins the creative process.

The mascot has grown on me. I know Cindy prefers the older, more manly Yosef. Regardless of how he looks, I love him!
hey, it could be worse : ) you could have a bison as your mascot and be known as the thundering herd! yeah, GREAT mascot for an overweight coed. and his name is marco? wtf? lots of spanish influence and bison in WV. someone must have been high on moonshine when they came up with our mascot.
