The name “IUPUI Jaguars” refers to the varsity teams sponsored by Indiana University – Purdue University Indianapolis, in Indianapolis.
Meaning and history
1972 – 1998
The original logo just says ‘Metnos’ in abrupt cursive letters. The coloring was burgundy.
1998 – 2007
The crawling jaguar featured on the 1998 IUPUI Jaguars logo seemed to be under the pressure of the heavy lettering placed above. Hardly a surprise the team decided to update the emblem and move the lettering below.
2007 – 2017
On the 2007 IUPUI Jaguars logo, the creature is also depicted in an aggressive style, with its mouth open.
2017 – Today
The next logo uses the same image of a jaguar’s head, but without the neck or anything else. The only other element is a big word ‘Iupui’, written underneath in burgundy letters of a blocky serif font.
