Fair use rationale for Image:University of Houston Logo.png
Image:University of Houston Logo.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Rivalry updates
This article only mentions two rivalries: Rice and Texas. Rice is a historically important rivalry but has slipped in importance since Houston joined the American Athletic Conference, and Texas hasn't played Houston in almost 20 years. I think we should update the rivalries to reflect the AAC era:


 * Cincinnati Bearcats - This is a very young rivalry since the two schools have only played in the same conference for 6 years now, but ESPN always mentions a "budding rivalry" whenever the two schools play in basketball.


 * Memphis Tigers - Houston-Memphis football and basketball games always get some of the most attention of AAC conference games. There isn't an official tradition like the Bayou Bucket for these games, but Houston and Memphis always seem to play each other at the end of regular season in those sports, which is typical of a rivalry game.


 * SMU Mustangs - Only other AAC school in Texas and a long history of playing each other that goes all the way back to the Southwest Conference. We have an article for Houston–SMU men's basketball rivalry, which has a notability tag but if we could expand it to beyond just basketball, we might get enough sources to establish notability.


 * Tulsa Golden Hurricane - Also a long history. Note that we already have an article for Houston–Tulsa football rivalry, and like SMU that article could be improved by broadening the scope to more than just football.
