Golden Eagles Wordmark Logo
The Southern Miss Golden Eagles have a long and storied history in the NCAA. The school’s wordmark logo has been around since the early 1960s when it was first introduced to represent the university's athletic teams. Since then, it has become synonymous with Southern Miss athletics and is one of the most recognizable logos in college sports today.
The original design featured an eagle head with wings spread wide over a shield that bore “Southern Mississippi” across its center line. This logo remained largely unchanged until 1997 when it was updated to better reflect modern aesthetics while still maintaining its classic look and feel. The current version features an eagle head within a circular shape containing "Southern Mississippi" at its top half, along with two stars on either side of the bird's face representing both North American eagles species: bald eagles and golden eagles (the mascot for which this emblem stands).
Over time, this iconic symbol has come to embody strength, courage, and pride for those who proudly wear or display their support for Southern Miss athletics—on t-shirts or hats; banners or flags; even tattoos! It also serves as inspiration during competition—a reminder that no matter how difficult things may seem on any given day at practice or game time—never give up hope because anything is possible if you put your mind towards achieving success like our beloved Golden Eagles do every season!
No matter what changes are made throughout history regarding uniform designs & team colors etc., one thing remains constant: The spirit behind our beloved wordmark will always remain strong as we continue to fight hard each year against all odds just like our feathered friends soaring high above us…Go EAGLES!!
