Anybody know if they are doing the motivational videos that they did for football last year?  And when do they normally post them on youtube?

Is Daronce still working with you guys?

EDIT:

Sorry for the delay!

Here's the new updated version.

Thanks and enjoy!

Thank you!  Not only do I look forward to the week's upcoming game, but also the motivational video that comes after it!  Gets me fired up!  Great work. 

So that's what Amstutz is up to these days. RV by the Maumee.

Ashley Hartzell and the Ohio Broadcast staff,

I only hope you take this as constructive criticism.  First off, I really did enjoy the first installment of yours (Wofford Motivational Video).  I  was very impressed and it had me wanting more as always. But alongside our football team's performance against Toledo, your "Toledo Motivational Video" was a major disappointment.  It takes little creativity to take some highlight footage and add in some alternative music to it.  It looked like you just threw it all together at the last minute. 

You have big footsteps to fill as Dorance constantly brought goosebumps with his work last season.  It was obvious he took pride in his work and did a great job at bringing some intensity and passion through his videos.
I know you may have your own style, but one thing that Dorance did well was including some kind of motivational speech at the beginning of many of his videos.  I would try and imagine yourself in that locker room watching the video and ask yourself what about a video would help get you pumped up?  Maybe I'm asking for too much as Bobcat fans and myself have been blessed to have such a great broadcast team that takes pride in their work every week.. We are very lucky.

Anyways, I hope Ashley and whoever else works on these videos will step up their game this week as we really need some extra motivation.  I want to see em' Bobcats come running out that tunnel fired up with some much needed passion.  I often show these motivational videos to friends and they are always impressed.  Not only does it get the team and fans pumped up, but it's a great representation of the quality and passion that Ohio University brings to the table every year. 

P.S. If you get anything out of this....at least understand that people do actually watch your videos and enjoy them (minus this week).  Thank you and I hope I wasn't too harsh.

Sincerely,

Buster the Bobcat

Ashley / Bobcat Broadcasting,

I for one would like to go on record as saying you're alll doing an unbelieveable job in general!  Bobcat coverage has grown leaps and bounds (in both quantity and content) in the recent past.  If I had been able to look ahead and see what's provided today 5 years ago I'd never have believed it..  The professionalism and the passion shines through...Keep up the great work! 

Dave I am sure you are more than welcome to put one together, most of the people doing this are volunteers to begin with, so feel free to pitch instead of bitch :)

Evan,

I think you always do top flight work, as evidence from the national awards that you win on what is becoming a regular basis!  Ohio University is lucky to have you!  You and your entire (very small) staff deserve a great amount of credit.

Evan,

That was just my two cents as a fan.  Glad to see you responded in a professional manner to clear things up.  I was just a little afraid of this team not having any emotion or passion out there and I didn't want you guys over in video production to lose it as well.  These videos deserve plenty more positive recognition for the work you all do.  Sorry if I made it seem like I was attacking you. Keep up the good work and put some spark back into this team!

oh, I thought you were talking about the motivational video with Toledo highlights in it.

...hard disk failure...

That's what she said...

Oh you said "disk." My bad...
