Yeah, I was wondering about that too -- Perhaps the "da" guy didn't show up and they were just left with Dajuan is bomb? That's the thing though, it was all on one sheet of paper, so it's not as though they forgot to hold up some element of the sign. I'm thinking Hoyals05 is right, though it was not in the YA section. My bad, I remembered wrong (although there were some YA's in that section though)

Some of you may be living a sheltered existence. I think its clear what "Dajuan is bomb" means.

If mods wish to delete this comment, feel free.
Particularly strong marajuana is often referred to as "bomb" or "bombing". It is a positive comment, as stronger weed is more desired than weak weed. I'd bet a good sum of money that this is the root of the sign.

"for everyone going to the bball game on sunday...:
Okay so basically my friends and i came up with this genius cheer for the upcoming Jacksonville game and every game after that...It goes "DaJuan is Bomb!Dajuan is Bomb!Dajuan is Bomb!..." like the event tagline says, this is a good cheer because:
1. dajuan is bomb, so it's a true statement 2. "dajuan" and "bomb" kind of rhyme, so it's really catchy 3. dajuan doesn't have a cheer yet, so that sucks
we're so pumped about this cheer and made signs and everything for its initiation at this sunday's game. i also told dajuan about it and he's totally on board. however, we need YOU to spread the word and join in on sunday. Last game i tried to do this cheer by myself...and everyone looked at me like i was crazy or something. okay thanks, can't wait, see you sunday!!"
^that's what my facebook "DUJUAN IS BOMB!!!" invite said
I'll let you and try to explain the method to the sophomore girl madness
And I wager these girls wouldn't know a bomb, from a bong, from a bowl, from a bud when it came to drugs.
It's just a really, really bizarre cheer.
I like "that's the way da-juan it, that's the way da-need it" 80s jingle from the DC Sports Bog so much more.

It strikes me as a little bit ESL.

Jimmy is right. Looking at this event, these girls are members of the lightweight crew team and are the ones who showed up in their uniforms

3. dajuan doesn't have a cheer yet, so that sucks DaJuan doesn't have a cheer yet? Well I'm sure that's news to the people in section 104 with two signs - one says "Da" and the other says "Juan". Interesting thought about the drug reference, but after reading that facebook invite, I'm not sure that's what they were going for.

Yes, upon further review perhaps I have just lived too much of an unsheltered life...
