Just saw a BROD's Instagram story that shows what I assume is picture day. Looks like the Cats have new white jerseys. Couldn't get a great look at them but not sure if I like it.

New home and aways. Not a fan of either. Looks like they tried to go more modern and got rid of the traditional stripes.

I agree. I was sort of "meh" when I saw them. Maybe they'll grow on me.

Looks like something from one of the branch campuses.

Awful. OHIO should always be on front.

Bad idea

I agree. I hope the old ones are still part of the rotation.

I hope these are some kind of practice jerseys or something. They are downright ugly. And, since I was a kid our jerseys have always said simply "Ohio" on the front. Who the heck is in-charge? This is happening under Cromer's watch, and comes right after her brilliant contract with Albin. Something is not right in the roundhouse on Richland.

One thing that never fails on this board is compaints! You can always count on complaints!

And, occasionally, just every now and then, a complaint is justified. This appears to be one of those times unless these were just some kind of experiment and nothing that will ever see the light of day.

Nope. The backdrop was photo day. Those are at least SOME unis you’ll see. I didn’t think the greens were that bad. Will 100% agree I support Ohio on the front vs Bobcats.

I never complain. I just make constructive criticism.

when you can't find anything else to complain about, you can always complain about the unis...

The LAST thing I'm concerned about is what we wear...

Ask yourself this....when you watched Ohio upset Virginia in the NCAA tournament on national television, would you rather see OHIO on the chest or Bobcats?

When you watch Ohio play at Kentucky and LSU on television this year, would you rather see OHIO on the chest or Bobcats?

It's all about branding.

I think that the new court was met with near universal adulation.

There are lots of Bobcats. There is only one Ohio. IMO, We should not be wearing "Bobcats" most of the time unless the uniform also says Ohio.

Much better!

So are we wearing the ugly white "Bobcat" uniforms at home and the beautiful green "OHIO" uniforms on the road? I'd donate to a fund to burn the former and get new white uniforms with OHIO emblazoned on them. Just some friendly constructive criticism.

We have given up on branding years ago when we fail to enforce the banding catalog that was created and adopted. But to answer your question? When I am watching OHIO play Virginia, Kentucky, LSU, the only thing I give a shit about is did we compete? win? Thats all that matters to me.

I don't like using the mascot on basketball uniforms unless you have a truly unique mascot. So in the MAC, that's pretty much just Akron, Kent, Central, and maybe Toledo.

OHIO on the road
BOBCATS at home

This formula has been used by teams everywhere, at all levels, for so long. People complaining about this are being babies.

Guess these folks have never seen half our teams play over the years.
