<F>antastic story. Thanks for posting.
Might see if Stumpy will let FUBeAR change his name to <F>UBeAR.
He only charged $999 for tax, tag, title, undercoating, shipping, and handling last time.

High schools all over the state have been lifting it for years. Guilty parties include Wando and Laurens (there are others, but I can't remember them at the moment). It's a fantastic logo.

A few in Georgia I know of are Lincoln County, Peach County (Louis Ivory's school), and Jefferson.
Obviously, Furman doesn't own geometric shapes, but I'd be interested to know the history at some of these schools and how they came to their logos.

Typically, the schools have a coach with some kind of ties to Furman and/or Coach Sheridan. I believe Fort Dorchester had it when John Bagwell coached there for example.The Jackal wrote: ↑Wed Sep 27, 2023 11:31 am'Din Djarin wrote: ↑Wed Sep 27, 2023 9:30 amHigh schools all over the state have been lifting it for years.

Both Laurens and Wando adopted it when they hired coaches with Furman ties. Rock Hill uses it as well, as does Lower Richland.'Din Djarin wrote: ↑Wed Sep 27, 2023 9:30 amHigh schools all over the state have been lifting it for years.

In 1964 the Pittsburgh Steelers used the US steel symbol in their helmet logo, it has 3 hypocloids, or diamond symbols. That's the only symbol close to what Dennis designed.
Also, this might be a me thing, but there are two types of Furman alum to me - "Diamond-F" folks, and "hypocycloid" folks.

Noted that you specified "Furman alum," but if you consider this possible rift more broadly, does the Diamond F derivative stylized letters faction have a dog in the fight?'Din Djarin wrote: ↑Thu Sep 28, 2023 8:41 amAlso, this might be a me thing, but there are two types of Furman alum to me - "Diamond-F" folks, and "hypocycloid" folks.
