Has anyone ever seen the logo of Howard University? They straight up sole the Bills logo and wrote the word Bisons on the stripe thats on the buffalo. I've never seen anything like it. I had a triple take when I saw the logo on the ESPN ticker. Lord knows the Bills aren't in the news right now.

Are you trolling?

They were given permission by Ralph Wilson to use the logo a long time ago.

I didn't mean offense, so please do not take any; it was not directed as much at you as the entire board - with some pretty strange topics coming up. This topic comes up every couply years and it usually starts some debate which is just silly

again, sorry bro.

Howard University's bison logo is one that is waived high and worn proudly. According to facilities manager Isaac Darden who has been a part of the Howard community for about 40 years, John Dupri a former Howard alumnus, who majored in art and member of the football team drew a version of the bison crest for Howard.

 

His artistic creation did not go unnoticed but instead was coveted.

It was so highly favored that the professional football team the Buffalo Bills took the design for their own. Since Howard did not have the logo copyrighted, it was lost to the Bills.
