It's official...Miami also leaving Nike

I don't see these as much more than concept sketches to get the creative discussion going. I do think we'll see a final product incorporate some of these aspects and possibly all but as others have stated there will be some cohesion and uniformity that we are accustomed to. The throwback is promising but I'm also dreading the horrible warped stripes of tech fit.

I really like the bottom row. Looks like traditional striping. The top row is just gosh-awful. Giant U logo on the pants, no green whatsoever on the white jersey and BFBS. Here's to hoping that the bottom row is primary and the top row is worn once and never to be seen again adidas alternates. Even though I bet we'll see them wear black just as much as they would wear orange or green.

When has adidas ever gave every school a good design element?. Gigantic basketball short waistbands, highlighter zubazcamo, sleeved basketball jerseys and tire tread patterns on football uniforms. I really don't expect more. This is just adidasfail #3400

C'mon Adidas. Like, at least if you're going to give a design element to every team, make it a good design element.

Bottom row looks like they went with the 1980's-1990's three stripes on the sleeves but possibly not on the pants. No stripes on the helmet is a mistake. Very few few white helmets look good without striping. That giant U on the top level, it looked like crap on teh Army All Americans and it looks like crap here. Not sure if they are keeping the green helmets too, but the black uniform is horrible and should never see the field. The one thinng I'd be hopeful for is that Al Golden is conservative when it comes to uniforms. If we see anything garish it will most likely only be seen once.

They love those type of logos don't they?

You both got your wish, bottom row will be the main uni combos. Top row, upper left all green with the orange numbers was scrapped months ago; will not be used at all this year. The all black will be used at least once with possibly a black helmet (groan). Release party in Miami Beach on July 18th.

I mean that's not too bad, right? The orange facemask will be a little jarring at first, but they should only be using a dumb black uniform once. I am a little confused why they would have two white jerseys though? Isn't the white one on the bottom row a "whiteout" jersey? Only the number color and facemask changes right?

I understand it's all about $$$ but Miami and Arizona State have made huge mistakes going to Adidas.

No. They only made a mistake if they left money on the table.

ASU left specifically because of how much of a pay raise they were getting from Adidas. It was more than double what they were making with Nike.

Then it was the right move, aesthetics or not.

This was Michigan's impetus for moving to the three stripes. They're so fed up with Adidas that they're about to walk from the sweet escalator clause that entitles them to the highest contract nationwide. Further, they'll likely take less money than the '09 deal to switch to Nike/UA next year.

Obviously, schools have different endgames in mind.

Miami and Arizona State are getting the best football jerseys on the market. The extra $$$ is a bonus.

LOL. A lot of players at Adidas schools have to put a covering on their shoulder pads the same color as the jersey because the sleeves keep riding up leaving the shoulder pads exposed. How can they be the best jerseys when they don't fit and function as they're intended?
