New Uniforms?

Post by Alasdair »

Any news on the new Nike Uniforms and what they might look like? It's getting close to Football season and I'd expect they'd had at least ideas or designs already.

I'd personally prefer to go back to Blue tops, what do you want them to look like?

I'd prefer a blue jersey and getting rid of those awful Buffalo Bills sleeve stripes.

I have a feeling we are going back to the blue jerseys, we probably should

have them in pretty soon.

I cannot agree with Rayburn more!

Gotta love the stripes. Need stripes back on the pants. There is no better uniform than our "whites". Would like to see the return of the blue jerseys (WITH stripes) though.

Pieces need to be in the right colors.
So at least 3 jerseys, 3 pants, 3 helmets for the season a red, a blue, a white
with some design but not too much
and I would mix them sometimes.
I might even braid in a tiny bit of gold that would help in outlining some things to help them pop.

White pants only. White helmets only (do you have any idea how long that battle was fought?). Todd Graham used up all the "tiny bits of gold" when he was at Rice (he had family down there).

Too much white is too girly for the men on the team. To me it's like white ice skates and clothing for the women. It's just too feminine. So NO white shoes for the football men!!

You'd hardly notice the gold braiding I would add.
You've gotta GO FOR THE GOLD.

I would have them looking so good.

White would be fine for helmet and pants, I think Red or Blue shoes should be whats up.

I wouldn't mind something like this, with our current helmet design. I'd also like the jerseys if you took the red out of the shoulder stripes, and just had the two white stripes on the shoulders... Just my opinion though... Frankly I liked the uniforms we had during the Hawaii Bowl with the stripes on the pants... I just think thicker pant stripes would go best with our helmet...

I would like our colors/uniforms to be the same as those worn in the 1983 Cotton Bowl. Those unis correctly used Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue

Agree with enlarging the SMU letters on the front. Doubt we'll see blue jerseys as the primary home color- apparently JJ is very superstitious and soured on the blue jerseys after his first season here

Would it be a surprise if he made it so the jerseys were black? Or would that seem something normal from him.
