I always figured we should at least have football Willie covered up, like Brutus at OSU.



Basketball Willie is a lost cause -- unless it's the extremely rare year he can actually dunk.

FWIW, new Willie head looks pretty great. Same design with darker gray fur. Subtle, but effective

Anyone notice how ridiculously shiny it was, though?  Someone needs to lay off the dog shampoo!

No.

Willie is a versatile mascot, able to dress up like a basketball player, football player, a fuckin soldier, or an astronaut.  You don't get that kind of flexibility with the stupid arms/legs. Plus the arms/legs make them look cartoony and stupid.

Was at the game, so I didn't see it on camera, but my source (elite cameraman) compared it to someone vacuuming a couch (suede) and leaving streaks in it.

I was at the game and could see it from under the SW scoreboard.  It did look like someone had vacuumed tracks in it.  Looked just as bad when I watched it on DVR later.
