I am not a fan of the new commercial, nor am I defending the previous one (though I know how and why it as shot the way it was). I think the new one could've been done better. It's clearly rushed to market.
At least the previous one was shot on film and had a consistent video treatment. I wish they would've taken this version into post-production and spent some time stylizing it appropriately (there is a discontinuity between the different scenes which makes it look amateurish).
Having said that, the video is meant to transition quickly. It is the intended pacing of the commercial and is supposed to build with the cheer. Besides it is based on the Nike drum commercial, which as the same quick cut style.

Just a comment - I'm not an OSU fan, but I saw their commercial during the Rose Bowl (not this one, but it's very similar - ) and I liked it a lot (and I still think that a GU-focused one (with people holding up HOYA and SAXA signs) could destroy it.
Even better, I found this one - . THAT one gives me chills every time I watch it.

Say what you will about our commercial (I like it a lot) but I just saw the NCState ad which has a but! ugly redbearded guy narrating and ends with the comment, "Researching a better hospital gown, good thing they have somebody doing that!" WTF??? That means that somebody/everybody in the approval process agreed, "Yeah, that is the impression we want to leave the audience with - Come to NC State, where we redesign utility garments." Says a lot about the school, none of it good.
The ACC ad on the other hand has every ACC hoops coach pirating the We are... cheer - We are...the ACC? Really? I am sticking with the nice work GU put out there
