Uniforms?

I remember hearing that this year's basketball squad will have new uniforms. Any idea when they'll be leaked/revealed?
 
I don't have any idea on the timeline, but IIRC, they're supposed to be the Nike Elite uniforms. So expect something similar to Kentucky, MSU, Duke, etc.
 
In other words, expect a ridiculous amount of gray.

No, not those. Something like this, with the back panel designs. The rest of the uniform is pretty normal.

Not into the tight fitting uni's that are coming out. Look like the guys are wearing spandex shirts half the time. Give me an updated classic look from like the 90's that will set them apart from the rest and maybe get an edge in the cool factor with new recruits.

Recruits like the tight jerseys. Nike doesn't design based on their ideas, they design based on what customers want. It's not 1994.

Edit: This came off rude, sorry bout that.

I'd say whatever the current recruits/players like to wear, is the direction we should go. For better or worse, gotta keep up with the times, instead of letting old farts like us decide what the team should wear.

That was pretty harsh haha How do you know recruits like the tight jersey? Thought the uni look from the throwback game linked below looked pretty BA. Think kids would jump on the thick banded shorts and simple piping that goes on with those.

They probably would look funny though if you are trying to do the whole leg tights, full elbow and knee pads, long sleeves with full under armur look some guys try today. Can't wait till that goes the way of the Allen Iverson finger sleeves

So because you thought the throwbacks looked pretty BA, that means recruits agree with you? Also, Iverson wore the arm sleeve, too. They're still around, and I'd be willing to bet they don't go anywhere, anytime soon.

Hey man - I just spitting my 2 cents on a uniform thread on a sports forum. No need to go all project runway fashion police on here. Just trying to make discussion.

The uniforms like what Iowa is rumored to be getting are very popular. If recruits hated them, the top programs in the country wouldn't be wearing them. That's how we know these are popular. The fact that you found the throwbacks to be awesome (which I agree with) means nothing.

But the list of stuff you threw out there as crap is pretty widespread among college players. I'd say that suggests you might not be in touch with what they like for their uniforms.
 
I don't care what they wear. Just wish we could skip over fb and get on with bb. Gonna be a fun ride.
