Fun fact about FSU's [old] logo: the Osceola face profile was of LDS convert
Tommie Wright who was an FSU faculty legend in his own right.

I met him when I was serving on FSU campus at an institute event. As soon as we met him he turned his head and opened his mouth to give us the classic side profile seminole logo shot. He was an FSU music professor for 59 years and composed the FSU fight song in 1950.

He passed away in 2014 and his memorial service was at the LDS church right across the street from FSU campus on Stadium Dr (312 Stadium Dr, Tallahassee, FL 32304) (its been long rumored that FSU wants to buy that property, but the church has held strong).

FSU has since changed the Osceola profile face in 2014 and it's no longer Tommie Wright.
