I think collegiate block should look like Clemson's. And if anyone is wondering, this chunky font isn't a historically accurate part of Miami's new throwback look. In the 80s and early 90s, Miami had normally-proportioned block letters with full serifs. This is an issue when each manufacturer has a "college block" font. They still try to change parts of it to make it their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think that Adidas did a bad job with theirs. oh ,my god ,i strong recommend you to have a visit on the website ,or if i'm the president ,i would have an barceque with the anthor of the articel .

Clintau24 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Check out that first photo. I figured the collar stripe went all the way around. I didn't realize it tapered off like that. "I believe in Auburn and love it!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DCarp1231 Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Maryland has removed the black shoulder stripe from their red and white jerseys while introducing a new black uniform in the same style as the red and white. They have also removed the "MARYLAND" thigh stripe as well as "MARYLAND" from the back of their helmets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discrim Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 I wish Miami had kept their previous number font. I thought it looked good on whatever jersey they put it on, and it would've been a nice nod to the 2000s teams.

Look for it next year, after this basketball season they are redoing the court at the Peterson event center. I can almost gaurnteed you they are waiting to put the new court in to make the final announcement. The Will then use the throwback colors. They already started using the lighter blue and yellow on the side walls of Heinz Field last year. The change will be coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maine football borrowing a page from their ice hockey counterparts. But this is somewhat weird, because the pants' striping is way too wide (a la Montana-era 49ers) and the entire uniform is on a Mach Speed knockoff template. I don't know if Nike allowed New Balance to lend their template. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siege Sports straight copies Nike so it's less about Nike objecting to the cut and more about the materials used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's okay. We have a Red Raiders team who predominantly wears black to balance the universe. It's kind of like how Sean Bean dies in every movie. It's like the universe recognizing that his name should rhyme - but doesn't - and tries to ALT+F4 him to balance things out. 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.
