I plan on flying the green and white from my hotel window and also in the arena. Let's paint Cleveland green!

Of course it is.  Any use of the word Ohio, in any version or representation, is theirs, because you know, they are the oldest university in the state.  Oh wait.......

It has a swallowtail-shaped pennant. The only state flag in a pennant form.  Why yes, I did ace all of my fourth grade Ohio History tests in Tom Walker's class, why do you ask?

That's awesome. If you really want to drive the point home I think you put that on all our uniforms.

Lets start a movement to get the flag on the official jerseys. I think Ohio University has taken giant steps in reclaiming our rightful name. 90% of the time we are referred to as Ohio in the media. Now as fans we should start to incorporate the state flag (pennant) into our fandom! Flying it during the NCAA tournament would be a great launch pad for our effort!

Kind of off topic, but College Bookstore should make versions of the state flag only instead of red white and blue have the colors green and white. The Crew already sells these with a yellow C where the O is in the state flag with yellow stars and black/yellow stripes. They look pretty sweet and are pretty popular. A Green and White version would be pretty easy and I think they would sell pretty well too.

A Green and White version would be pretty easy and I think they would sell pretty well too. This past week as I was walking to my office I noticed the big computerized Times Square-style sign at the corner of Broad and High in Columbus.  They were running some ad for Huntington Bank that included something that looked like trash cans doing script Ohio on a football field.  The ad was in Huntington's colors -- green and white.  It was quite an improvement over how script Ohio is usually done in Columbus. We will get by. We will get by. We will get by. We will survive.

There is literally no reason for us not to do that. Ill bring mine for Cleveland for sure. Now if we could just get the Ohio outline back on the floor at the Convo like the old days...
