While I do like that McConnell tower green light graphic, it's gotta be the battle flag, no?

according to the other thread, the battle flag isn't getting any love.
Too bold, I suppose.    It got my vote though.

McConnell Tower/Trees, while easily recognized from this image, will be hard to decipher from different angles, upside down, etc.    It'll leave alot of people squinting at it, saying "what is that thing?"  

And I love me some battle flag, but to make the whole court look like that? Looks like the worlds biggest corn hole board.

battle flag will look awful on tv/internet games.  Look at the crap Colorado St, Oregon, and some other schools that have super colorful or super busy floors...it is terrible.

I voted for the Battle Flag.  On the contrary, I think it will look great on TV before the game or during the wrap up.  Our Battle Flag is unique to college sports as is our nickname. 

The sooner people get used to seeing a truly competitive university icon the better.

Thanks Jim

Diving Eagle.  What about making the lanes the Battle Flag?  I have gone back and forth and thought it would be too busy, but was curious about other's opinions.  Also, what if we went with the Diving Eagle and added small Battle Flags on the court opposite where the conference logo is placed?  Curious what others think.

Good compromise.

I have weak skills when it comes to that, but I would welcome anybody else taking a stab at it.

I agree with this point on the BF. I think it is a cool concept, but not sure it would look good from a viewers perspective. Might be hard to distinguish where the court is and the sidelines. I think Diving Eagle was getting the most love on social media.

I like diving eagle. Battle Flag covers all the court and I like to see wood. Just don't think "light the tower" would do to much unless seated right in front of it.

I normally love the battle flag design.   But, I think it is too big and would look washed out on TV and in the stands.

Personally, I would love to see the battle flag incorporated as a smaller feature in one of the existing designs.   Maybe something like this:

With a design like this, on TV the battle flag would really stand out because most of the action centers around the key.   Just MHO.

      A Volleyball Coach To Consider??

      Not sure if we'd hire a guy...as we replaced Jalie with a guy. And I think they like to have at least some women's head coaches. Found this guy....at Arkansas State. They're 26-5..... https://astateredwolves.com/sports/womens-volleyball/roster/coaches/brian-gerwig/980

      How 'Bout Some Blame For The BOR?

      I'm turning into Scotty after this weekend. The team had broken me.

      The Band

      I personally think that the playing music over the PA at times when the band would typically be playing has negatively impacted the cadence for when and how the band plays during the games. I don't want to be all old man about it, but if I want to listen to the stuff that is played on the PA system (majority of which I actually do like), I have about 10 different devices I can play that on myself. When I go to a college football game, I want to hear the friggin' band play during timeouts and between plays, when appropriate. It's college football, not an NBA game. When I look back at attending games at Fouts as a student in the 90s', I absolutely remember the band playing, and I enjoyed it then just as I do now. If they were playing other music, maybe they were, but I would have no memory of that whatsoever. Additionally, I know there has been some other negative thoughts about the band overall, and not that I have been in band since I played trumpet as a sophomore in high school so I am no expert, but I was absolutely blown away by the halftime performance this week. I know majority of it was a rehash of other bits and pieces that had already been done this year, but damn that was a strong close.

      yes! 12 seed, 30-win, Will-Wades-been-to-6-straight-postseasons-including-S16, McNeese! Y'all (not necessarily you GJ)! Take off your football glasses. There are incredible programs dwelling in these off-name conferences. We have useful metrics that can validate their quality of ball, regardless of name/conference affiliation.
