UTSA Roadrunners 1980s Ringer Tee
When the student body voted on a mascot for UTSA, the pro-roadrunner crowd based their sketches on the Warner Bros. character from the Wile E. Coyote/Road Runner cartoon. For obvious reasons, UTSA didn’t go that direction when developing Rowdy the Roadrunner, but after his reveal in 1988, he was apparently compared to the Kansas Jayhawk. This design features UTSA’s first roadrunner logo, which debuted in 1980; we assume that a silhouette of a roadrunner didn’t draw nearly as many comparisons to other well-known cartoon birds of its day.
