    BYU had adopted a Y as part of their logo 6 years later in 1978. However BYU used strictly the Y as their logo. Yale used the bulldog and a Y.

    Yale did not start using the Y as the main piece of their logo until 1998.

    The Y "logo" is he stretch oval Y, which has nothing to do with Yale and looks nothing like the Yale Y.

    The block Y that does look like the Yale logo is from the block Y on Y Mountain. Not sure when that went up, but it is not derivative from Yale, although they definitely look similar. As far as I know, this iteration is not an "official" byu logo. It is just a Y.

    The other "block" Y that appeared on the bib uni helmets isn't a Yale config. Doesn't look like the Yale Y.

        IPU is correct. We used to do that "U" hand signal all the time growing up in Utah, especially in junior high school.

          LOL. People outside Utah still think it's Yale when they see a Y. Sorry, but it's true. BYU is widely known, but not the Y symbol.

          The whole thing with the "Y" began when early Cougar students gave up on putting "BYU" on the hill above the campus and called it a day with a "Y." That's kind of like George Mason University going with a big "M."

            No need to apologize.

            So, you're suggesting that when people see a team wearing this helmet, they automatically conclude that it must be Yale that is playing.

                No, I won't go that far. The probably just wonder where Young University is.

                  I'm sure the mix-up was a lot more common during the Crowton years.

                    It's actually a very appropriate abbreviation for BYU:

                            See? Even Jarid admits that the hand gesture is lame.

                                Smack about it is as lame as the missing B-U on the mtn.
