Had these images sent to me by a friend with a creative pulse.. Thought they were pretty sweet so I wanted to share. I'm a big fan of our current Creme and Black uni's, but the standard home and away jerseys still don't do it for me. If we ever get away from Adidas, I wouldn't mind something like these getting a look... Any feedback or requests are welcome

I think we would be unmercifully clowned if we rolled out Cowboy Hat Herbie

Putting a jumpman logo on our stuff doesn't make it any better IMO. Being a top tier Adidas school is probably better than being a middle tier Nike school because the real cool factor is determined by winning, not brand.

I was actually thinking about this the other day.  I can't believe how many schools out there with Nike contracts have had their logo/uniform design basically destroyed by Nike with their horrible template uniforms and extremely bland logo designs with their spiky serif fonts and mascot designs that all look the same.

 

Thank God we have been able to retain most of our branding identity with Adidas.

 

We have this:

and we don't have to suffer with Nike shitshows like this:

I play NBA 2K pretty much to do this. I will throw some of mine up at some point.

That new “Herbie” is an abomination & looks like Randy Travis on a bender...

Why would we switch away from Pepsi?  The partnership with LinPepCo is solid and mutually beneficial.  Mere taste differential between Coke and Pepsi is not a good reason to switch, as there is a great number of people who prefer Pepsi to Coke. 

Yup I’ve pretty much given up to drinking water or Mountain Dew at the games.  Pepsi is pure garbage.

The thing about Pepsi is that it owns Gatorade.  Gatorade is what the athletic department is after, not pleasing everyone that their tastebuds are satisfied with their choice of beverage.  The line of Gatorade products they provide the department is top notch for elite athletes.  Powerade is garbage so I would rather the athletes have what they need to compete at their highest and best abilities during games, practices, workouts, and just in general.

Hi, @cyinne I don't recall ever seeing a post from you here, but yet you have 98 posts and a +38 rep.  Are you coming over from the women's hoop board?

 

Doesn't really matter I guess...welcome!

Thanks @49r  Yeah, I used to post there some but it’s been a minute.  I just lurk now....  I just don’t know why this struck a cord with me and moved me to post about it...  probably won’t see me post much, but I’ll drop in from time to time.....
