Back to Back Championship Rings
I cannot say this is the official ring idea, but here's a picture I was given of at least an idea of a ring. Like I said, I cannot confirm this as official, but I was told it was a "sneak peak". Enjoy because I think they are pretty bad a$$ looking!!!

Re: Back to Back Championship Rings
I think the ring is cool, but a gripe I do have is that if I were not on the team in 2011, I would feel weird that my NC ring also has a year that I wasn't a part of on it.
I think I would prefer a year by year ring (or a b2b ring on TOP of a year to year ring)

I believe the ring has some major influence from captains and seniors, so as much as I agree with your statement, they may not have thought of that during the decision making process. The one gripe I have is the 11 small diamonds that surround the trophies. Why 11? This was championship number 10... Year 2012... Maybe they are predicting something...

If they are like last years ring and meant to have significance they should have had 8 and the 2 large ones on top of the trophies.
Re: Back to Back Championship Rings
Probably a stupid question but does it matter for the true freshman or redshirts that werent here last year? Do redshirts get rings anyways?
Re: Back to Back Championship Rings
At least they fixed the bison head logo. Would have hated to see the one they first brought out with the logo changes.

They get rings...they work hard in practice and help the team get ready for that week's opponent.

So do they get back to back rings even tho most of them werent around for the first one?...thats what i was getting at.
Re: Back to Back Championship Rings
I guess I wouldn't have a problem with it... They were on the 2012 team... maybe leave the back to back off and keep the 2 trophies? The upperclassmen probably want to recognize the significance of back to back not many teams can do that. Really though to me it's not that big of deal.

I think the the back-to-back design signifies what the team did, not the individual players. My guess is yes, they all get the same ring.
