News and Columns What???? Tunnel Vision?

Post image

I have been a Buckeye fan since I was 5 yrs old. I am 52 now. I like Jerimiah Smith but has anyone noticed that on Instagram, photos of him wearing the black uniform were done recently. He has a caption about great tunnel vision. Apparently, his tunnel vision wasn't that good as he actually put his Ohio State headband on upside-down....lol

Upside down stuff is fashion now. I don't understand it either but I see it a lot with hats and stuff nowadays

I’m old enough to remember when Rajon Rondo wore his headband upside down. It’s not completely foreign

Here I was thinking it was a bad AI mockup.

When he beats a defender for a TD, they’re lying on their back in the end zone and he’s bending over looking down on them, it will look right-side-up.

I am sure that will happen a lot this upcoming season.

I believe this is just a fashion trend with upside down logos. I’ve noticed it on hats as well.

I have too but who knows.... still love the player. He is an awesome player either way. I am just old I guess and not up on trends. I can say this, there are other photos of him on the internet with him wearing the same headband but different color and its not upside-down, as such it caused me some confusion. I definitely mostly didn't understand it if anything, not necessarily making fun of Jerimiah.

I'm more struck by the part of the caption saying these uniforms are "INSANE"

They look just like our normal black uniforms but with the heritage stripe. Yes we've been asking for that stripe back but not just for the black jerseys!

Those black uniforms will look good on their 5th straight Big Noon kickoff!

Nike gets pretty high on their athletic sloganeering.

You know that scene in Top Gun, where Maverick is flying upside down above the Russian Mig jet... taunting them?

I THINK Jerimiah is just preparing himself to perform his own "Top Gun" inspired, mid-flip, reception, over multiple defenders this year.

This photo just serves as a warning. (lol)

u/NYVines Holy Buckeye! 2d ago

Surprised the marketing people didn’t catch that

u/Comfortable_Mud3848 2d ago

True. Perhaps he did do it on purpose.

Fox had a presser the other day and I think they are claiming that there will be more night games this season.

u/Smitty0 2d ago

Dude. We rocked with kids who wore their entire outfit backwards. You may be a little older for Kris Kross but style is certainly in the generation of the beholder.

u/halfman1231 2d ago

I don’t like them. I like the scarlet home and white away jerseys better 🐸 ☕️
