Bears Alternate Logo

The Baylor Bears have a long and storied history of athletic success, but their logo has also been an integral part of the team’s identity. The original logo for the bears was introduced in 1914 and featured a bear head with “Baylor University” written across it. This design was used until 1976 when it underwent its first major redesign to make it more modern looking. The new version included a shield-like shape surrounding the bear head, which had now become much larger than before. It also featured two stars at either side representing Texas state pride as well as gold lettering reading “BU” inside of the shield shape - standing for Baylor University, naturally!

In 2003 they decided to update their classic look once again by introducing what is known today as their alternate logo or "Mascot Logo". This iteration kept some aspects from previous designs but added several unique elements such as green trim around both sides of the bear's face along with white fur on its ears and chest area that gave him an intimidating yet friendly appearance all at once! Additionally, there are three stars above his head symbolizing loyalty and strength while honoring tradition through the use of colors like green & gold (which are school colors).

Today this alternate mascot logo remains one of the most popular logos in college sports due not only to its visual appeal but also because of how closely associated it is with past successes achieved by Baylor Bears teams over time - making them even more beloved amongst fans everywhere who proudly wear apparel featuring this iconic image!
