No problem with a fellow Irish alum getting his due...
He deserves it afterall.
Besides, LeBron is big Ohio State fan. What's not to love about a partnership between the two?
He could be our Snoop Dogg.

My point exactly. Why would you put a LeBron symbol on a Buckeye jersey when he was never a Buckeye in the first place?? He is from Ohio, but it just makes no sense to me.

Not crazy about the logo. Not crazy about the entire idea. I think as a Buckeye fan...someone who follows one of the most storied and legendary programs of college sport, I've just come to hate all change in uniform as a whole. Now, if it comes down to helping the performance, you have to do what you have to do. As far as the LJ logos...he hasn't even won a champioship yet. At least let the guy end his career and retire first.

Jordan didn't go to UC and they wore his "Jumpman" symbol on their jerseys.
It's just a brand logo. It's not like the "Ohio State" has been replaced by a 2 ft. picture of LBJ.

He is a buckeye. I'm telling you, if the rule would have been in place when Lebron was in high school, he would have been a Buckeye.
He is a HUGE Ohio State fan(always has been) and he loves the bucks. Pretty much everyone from Akron is a buckeye fan. Huge fan base their, even in the Catholic schools.

I agree with Cornerback6. He hasn't done anything in his NBA career. Now if it was a Dwyane Wade logo for Marquette I might have a different point of view. He already has a Ring and a Finals MVP, and his jersey is already retired at Marquette.

Good luck with that LeBron James Logo on your jerseys, I hope it doesn't cause you guys to make free throws at a 68% clip, and not come through in the clutch.

Great day to be a Buckeye

I remember hearing this as well. That if he hadn't gone pro he would've been a Buckeye.
But even so, I don't really think that's the point. I think it's just like the Air Jordan line...just because a team wore Air Jordan shoes doesn't mean that they had an association with MJ. Just means they're sweet shoes.

For those of you who don't care at all about the uni's...let's follow in Oregon's football team's footsteps.
OSU is a historical program with tradition beyond tradition. I HATE change.
