Three cheers to North By Northwestern for breaking the news that Willie the Wildcat has received quite the makeover.
Personally, we're a bit confused over here at gossipdesk. His fur is darker and his eyes are lacking in color, saying goodbye to that drunken glint that once rested in them. He's missing that endearing gap-toothed smile, which has been replaced by an impossibly human set of teeth (cosmetic surgery?). His eyebrows have been shaved. Also, what's with the plumage protruding from his face? C'mon, this is worse than Osama bin Laden's newly dyed beard!
Given all these changes (which maybe reflect the newer, darker, post 9/11 world, blah blah blah), I'd stay away from airports if I were Willie the Wildcat. Good luck getting through security with this look...
And oh yeah, go cats!

He went from endearing cartoon mascot to scary-looking furry. I am not a fan. Although I hear the furry community considers him the "most fuckable mascot of the Big 10," which is, uh, something, I guess.
