Good grief.

Everyone should send emails to the people responsible for this, it is embarassing.

And your huge problem with it is what?

I think its cool.

I agree with Ntalkers I think its cool and being apart of the 07 class I am proud of it

I think it is a great idea, those are just some rather cheesy conceptual drawings. I am sure the finished product will look much better.

Personally, I think it is horrible placement

this looks better



or this one

A simple standing pose would also look better IMO...

Good idea, not so good execution

Looks really cool.

looks awesome!

Looks good to me.

I wonder if they'll use a DAAP student as the sculptor

Cheerboy and Ntalkers are right on....bring that awsome thing to campus now!

I love the concept, I just think the image at the bottom does not look like a Bearcat. It looks like a Panther from Pittsburgh.

That is why it says "conceptual model". The final statue will most likely look more like a real bearcat.

I like the idea. I remember when the Zoo used to bring the binturong to campus for gameday.

I've seen rats on campus, and that doesn't look like a rat.

They brought the bearcat up to Calhoun hall one time. We got to pet it and it smelled like popcorn!

"This young binturong is the hope of the entire world that American mammals will change and be made better. This young binturong is capturing audiences of furry mammals black and brown and red and yellow. If you look at the Bearcat binturong's audiences and look at the effect of his presence, those mammals are being transformed." - Minister Louis Farrakhan Sun Feb 24, 2008

"The Bearcat binturong has brought me back to the University of Cincinnati and I'm not even a mammal. It is because of the binturong that I fully endorse both Mick Cronin and Mike Thomas. My macrame' UC logo afgahn is back on my computer chair. Build that statue now." - BannedDon of East Enterprise

when alice use to come to games.. i was a young lad.. even younger than now.. not that i am old.. but we would come in next to the bowling alley.. my uncle(a UC student) would get me a big bag of m&m's and a few mt. dew's during the game.. EVERY single sunday morning i would wake up sicker than a dog.. but those games always started with me looking at the binturong before the kickoff..
