Brutus Buckeye is an anthropomorphic Buckeye nut derived from Ohio’s state tree and is the mascot of the Ohio State University. He is most known for his simple but iconic appearance, with a brown oblong head (resembling the nut) and his red and grey shirt with ‘Brutus’ spelled out in the middle.
Brutus Buckeye is a beloved school athletic mascot in the NCAA and has been known to appear in video games and commercials. He wears a grey university cap, red and grey-striped sweater, red sweatpants, and grey gloves.
About Brutus Buckeye
Brutus Buckeye's persona was created after two Ohio State students convinced the athletic council to consider giving the university its own mascot in 1965. Knowing the trend was bringing a live animal into the stadium, the idea of a buck deer was deemed impossible. In the end, the official state tree of Ohio, buckeye, was chosen.
