Let me tamper down my geekout mode, but those are really really sharp.

Perhaps they were afraid of the Grammar Police of Bobcat Attack.

The opposing team sucks!

Agreed - what's the "point"?

Does look pretty good though.

Do you find the period or the exclamation mark unnecessary? Both? For consistency, you can't have one without the other. Of course, that leaves us with the punctuation-free inner ring...

I kid. Mostly.

Personally, I think the "We are Ohio." was added for emphasis...as a subtle jab to a certain school 70 miles up the road. No "U" needed - we are OHIO. PERIOD.

For that reason, I love it!! Not to mention they look unbelievable. Excited to see in person at volleyball soon.

Looks good. It would look even better with a scoreboard hanging in the center of the banners.

Most Memorable Bobcat Events Attended
2010 97-83 win over Georgetown in NCAA 1st round
2012 45-13 victory over ULM in the Independence Bowl
2015 34-3 drubbing of Miami @ Peden front of 25,086

+1

I just hope the addition of the banners doesn't mean that the hopes of a center-hung scoreboard are gone. A scoreboard with the banners would be absolutely BIG TIME.

Where does it say We Are Ohio? ... Which begs the question, Why doesn't it say WE ARE OHIO!

The banners look nice, but ... Welcome to Ohio? wtf? No.

I meant welcome...whoops.

It makes sense. Outer one says "Welcome to Ohio"...inner says "Home of the Bobcats". Just saw on Facebook the picture has 600 likes, so I'd say prevailing opinion is

Now that I look again - it is "Welcome". Kinda cheesy....

The period, because punctuation is not needed for either phrase but the exclamation point works because it ads emphasis to the action stated.

I liked the flags.

Flags were strange and seemed out of place. It was almost too much color going on IMO...

I liked the flags better than the look of nothing up there last year, but this is better than both.

If this means no center court scoreboard, I don't care as long as at some point there is a scoreboard/video board upgrade.

I am really fine with the proper pucnctuation and agree with the sentiment that it is OHIO ....PERIOD!

Banners look great.

branding is important and consistency with the proper message is equally as important. Great idea, great execution.

never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
