Just the right amount of pizzazz in my opinion. A modern and classic look at the same time. Very well done.

It�s ok. The MAC logos are way, way, way too big.

I don't like the MAC logos, their placement and their size. Maybe that was a directive from the MAC office?

I'm glad there's nothing along the sidelines between mid court and the three point line. Nothing stupid like that red paint stroke at Miami.

Love the design but the green is not the proper OHIO Bobcat color and is much more a Kelly Green.

Agreed. I think it looks great.

It's the same green used in the Attack Cat logo, so....

I apologize for sounding pedantic, but according to the athletic site the Ohio green started out as an Olive green but evolved into a darker Hunter green. I believe Marshall uses a green that is a closer match to Kelly.

It�s not the appropriate color per the Pantone shade that is adopted as official.

PMS 336c

Which is Hunter green. The Convo seats are Hunter Green.

In 1995 OHIO adopted PMS 336c which is Hunter green. Which changed from Kelly Green of the 70�s and 80�s. Problem is with Kelly Green is it�s not an official dye color and it�s hard to match Kelly�s. Hunter is a consistent color.

Looks nice.

Now can we be certain the players won't be wearing Kent State golden shoes or worse during the games as was the case last season? (other than a charity game) Black, white or green should be the law of the Bobcat court.

The original OHIO green, after changing the colors from Blue and White, was Dartmouth green, but I guess there aren't many others on this board who can remember the 1897 season!

I really doubt the chair color was selected to match the official Ohio Hunter Green. Darker means they show less dirt/wear. And it undoubtedly was a standard color available from the chair supplier.

The green used in the new court graphics matches the color used in the Ohio Attack Cat logo, which has been around in various iterations for what, 20 years? It makes sense.

What's next, BobcatSquared and Alan complaining that the brick pattern strobes their rods and cones?

Congrats to all involved in the new design. I love it.

Actually SBH, the green in the logo on the attack cat on the floor is not the correct color either. That�s my point. I would think a person with your background in marketing and media would understand brand standards. Willing to bet if you created an add for Ford Motor Company you�d use the correct color blue in the oval.

The finished product definitely looks better than the individual pieces in isolation. I'm glad the "bricks" are very subtle and not really noticeable from distance.

I'd still prefer the old school green state of Ohio, but think this is an improvement over last season.

Is this more important than hand driers and soft pretzels to the game day experience?
