TCU logo and symbol, meaning, history, PNG
- Download PNG TCU Logo PNG The TCU Horned Frogs have gone through quite a few logos throughout their history.
- Today, the football team uses an arched wordmark and a horned frog emblem.
- Meaning and history The team has used several comparatively short-lived versions of the script logo until the “Flying TCU” emblem, where the “T” was extending out over the “CU”, was introduced in 1977.
- It was replaced by the arched wordmark, which was suggested by the team’s head coach Pat Sullivan in 1992, during his first season on this position.
- Interestingly enough, he invented the new logo as part of a bigger plan to replace the expectation of losing, which was then inseparably linked with the TCU team.
- Athletic Frog symbol The primary athletic TCU logo features a grey horned frog with a black outline.
- Although the picture is far from being realistic, it is given in great detail.
- The reptile’s mouth is half open, as if to menace an invisible enemy.
- Alternative emblems On some occasions, the so-called University Frog is used instead of the Athletic Frog.
- The university emblem depicts a horned frog as seen from above.
- While the colors themselves stay the same, they may be used in a different way (for instance, the frog’s outline may be not black, but purple, or the letters may be not purple, but white).
- The wordmark and its font The arched wordmark featuring a custom all-cap sans serif typeface is probably the most recognizable of all the Texas Christian University logos.
- Color The most noticeable color in the TCU logo is the so-called TCU Purple, which has the number 268 in the Pantone Matching System.
- The additional colors include grey (429 C in the Pantone system), white, and black.
