If the Zips show signs of improvement, there's no more excuses to not show up. There will always be lots of excuses to not show up. I'm hoping one day the primary excuse is "the damn Info is sold out again." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the football record in recent years, nearly as much football has been played in the JAR as in Infocision. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some schools try too hard to get noticed and do crazy stuff with their floors and fields. NIU's dark floor with the weird eyes, Kent State's giant lighting bolts and Eastern Michigan's gray field are all terrible. I really wasn't really even a fan of our most recent court with the kangaroo heads in the key. Follow the KISS theory. Keep It Simple Stupid. We have a nice new logo. Let it shine. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is simply gorgeous. The break in the blue with the gold is a nice touch, especially with the blue A in the middle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both have the same blue A, blue endzones/baselines with gold type and name of facility on the sidelines. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the two tone wood, but this still looks nice. Wonder what's still covered up above and below the A logo? FirstEnergy logos? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see what this road map looks like that has convinced donors to shell out so much money for the facilities. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akzipper Posted August 24, 2022 Report Share Posted August 24, 2022 New logo looks good at the top of the scoreboard. Wish they could get some $$ to update that screen. Just fill up the whole thing with a video board like they did at Progressive Field. Those ads and old school scoreboard at the bottom aren't needed anymore. Just program stuff like that into the video graphics. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
