Besides College Bookstore is there anywhere to get sweet 16 gear?  The choices are alittle underwhelming.

Why do we sell anything with gold on it?  That drives me nuts.  You want to fight for branding and names, but you sell stuff with green and gold?  The most basic branding is color and we keep making stuff that has gold on it.  I don't understand.

I hate how there are so many things out there that have gold too and also how much stuff is floating around that has our arch Ohio w/ the attack cat along with "BOBCATS" in black underneath.  I refuse to buy any of those items.

Anyone else notice how we only have one of the three different designs that are being sold?  Guess they are not banking on selling many Ohio shirts.

College Bookstore has some decent shirts they have designed: https://cbsohiou.3dcartstores.com/Basketball_c_210-1.html

I went in CBS yesterday but they didn't have any of the Sweet 16 shirts ... they had MichiGone and the Brackets Busted shirt. I'm going to check again today... I want one of the black Sweet 16 shirts.

Good point, but I'm thinking that in my euphoria over getting to the Elite 8, I will have forgotten that I spent $18 for a Sweet Sixteen shirt and I'll go buy an Elite 8 shirt too.

I actually tried to order a Sweet 16 shirt. It said it wouldn't be available until March 28. I then changed my mind, figured if they lose to UNC I could order the Sweet 16 - if they win, well, just wait for NCAA National Champs gear to come out.

Went up to CBS a few minutes ago ... the Sweet 16 shirts will be available today. They already have a couple of styles in the store and are waiting for FedEx to bring the rest.

From the Chicago Tribune (and a good article, btw):

The College Bookstore sold 50 percent more than its best Christmas sales in a two-hour span, manager Andrew Stout said. T-shirts like "Hoops We Did It Again," "Michi-gone" and "16 Teams but Only One Ohio" are selling out online before he can get them on the rack.

I sincerely hope that the athletics department -- once they have a chance to catch their breath -- tallies up the increase in website hits, the value of media coverage, the reach of social media coverage, the uptick in merchandise sales (and corresponding licensing income to the university), the alumni donations and the increase in applications to illustrate -- once and for all -- the value of an athletic team performance such as this.*

The "16 teams but only one Ohio" is very cool.  And, can be expanded beyond just the sweet 16 as a slogan for Ohio.

Starting in 2010 I decided to always buy the MAC Tourney Champion hat, it is easy to display and will last longer than any t-shirt I will ever buy.  Really wish I had the hat from our win over UB for the Championship.

Great for them.  They have always been my favorite bookstore in Athens and they seem to be the best corporate citizens.  As far as I know the only true blue locally owned bookstore in town.

Tom Boeh used to be totally stuck on the phrase, "There's Only One Ohio."

Expecting two more shirts in the mail today.  Our daughter ordered from College Bookstore after the "MichiGone" win and then had to order again after Sunday's win.  She said she will keep ordering to keep her parents' wardrobe current as long as it takes!  GO BOBCATS!
