Cougars Wordmark Logo

The Houston Cougars wordmark logo has been around since the late 1990s and is one of the most recognizable logos in college sports. It features a bold red “H” with white trim, an orange outline, and two stars above it representing Texas. The logo was created to represent the school's athletic program as well as its sense of pride and spirit for its teams.

The original design was based on a classic cursive font that had been used by other universities such as Arkansas State University and Oklahoma State University during this time period. Over time, slight modifications were made to give it more character while still maintaining its traditional look; including adding additional colors like black or grey into the mix which can be seen in some versions today. The current version also includes a small flame at each end of the "Cougars" text underneath which symbolizes fire within you when wearing your team's colors or going out to support them on game day!

Overall, Houston Cougars' wordmark logo has become iconic over years due to its timelessness combined with subtle changes throughout history that keep it fresh yet familiar looking for fans everywhere who follow their beloved team through thick-and-thin times alike! This is why even after all these decades later – people are still able to recognize what school they're supporting just by seeing this single image alone: no matter where they may be located geographically speaking across America (or beyond).
