That shade of green looks terrible from a distance. The 2008 - 2010 shirts had a brighter, more attractive green.

I've been telling people for a few years now to go back to white.

Love it!!! Perfect way to take a little stab at O$U without actually doing it. Especially appropriate after the NCAA Tournament and Michi-gone. First time the O Zone shirt has actually had some creativity to it - in the past has always just been the logo. I could see students gobbling these up (and some of us old folks trying to get our hands on it!).

I hope that you produce an "Old Zone" version; I think it would be a great fundraising tool.

It's too bad we can't get some white versions of the shirt and have those people sit in the "O" part of the stands, know what I mean?

It would be like this:

Only after halftime, it would look more like a "L" or an "I" because everyone would be leaving...

If anyone hears of them making one, please post. I think there's a lot of "Old Zoners" that would like to get their hands on one. Might just happen to wear it next time I'm in Columbus!

Funny, on another thread the phrase "marketing war with Ohio State" came up...

I wish the words/graphics were a little bigger. Otherwise, solid.

I too prefer a change back to white, but if you're going to be green, be the actual OHIO green.

I am sure Marshall fans will just love seeing the student section wearing them

Best. Shirt. Ever.

I hope we're finally getting the gusto to start coming hard after "State". Someone's got to make an Old Zone shirt for this!!

Cincinnati has been on a similar strategy for a couple years:

I really like this shirt, because it attacks The Evil Empire for another one of its thefts. Ohio is the Buckeye State. In Columbus you would get the idea that that university on the Olentangy has exclusive rights to that name. But one small example: Anthony Thomas, the candy company, makes Buckeye candies, and virtually all of the boxes containing this product are adorned with Ohio State imagery. In my wife's family they've made Buckeye candy for years using an "old family recipe" and it has nothing to do with OSU but is reflective of pride in being a native of the great state of OHIO.

Depends on how they read into it. If they were watching the NCAA tournament (Marshall to check in on a rival, PSU for a conference opponent) then they'll have seen the whole idiotic Brady Hoke episode. If they did, they'll probably think it's a jab at Ohio State.
