P.J. Fleck said in a recent Facebook Live interview that Minnesota will be getting new uniforms in "a few weeks", and that “just like anything we do, they’re probably going to upset some people.” #ChromeAlert

When will chrome not be a thing? It’s such a terrible “color” and only matches when you put those shiny numbers on unis which also look terrible. My goodness why do teams like wearing mirrors on their heads? And I’d imagine it’s a nightmare for equipment managers to keep them polished so smoothly?

When millenial potential players coming out of high school stop thinking it looks cool/intimidating. Same as it is with most college uniform fads/trends

Anything new is "cool".. When something else comes along, it'll become the new fad

Not that it really matters,  but the kids coming out of high school aren't millenials. Heck, the players coming out of college aren't technically millenials either.

 

Now back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Sources close to Tennessee say they are ditching the Smokey Grey uniform and will only wear black cleats

Wow.  I actually didn't mind the smokey grey set.  For a team as traditional as Tennessee I thought that alternate was tastefully done and certainly not outlandish in any way.

Honestly i love chrome helmets when done right. The problem is they're rarely done right.

Has this been posted yet? Possible UVA leak with new striping on the jerseys and helmets, in addition to a custom number font.

It’s alright. Guess it’s a bit of a throwback to this era:

(This one was apparently a throwback worn in 2008)

I prefer the original stripes without the dividing gap.

RichO - “Pictures posted by recruits are at least 99% not new uniforms.”

 

aawagner001 - “Let me show you the 1 percent.”

 

Lol! I could jump that to perhaps 2% by reminding y’all of that time when the return of Georgia’s black jerseys were leaked during a big recruiting weekend. This was summer of 2016.

Or this past winter/spring when I documented Georgia transitioning to the Vapor Untouchable based on recruiting visits (check the uniforms hanging in the background).

Always stay alert! You never know when you’ll spot something new.
