Concept - Rowan Football


WJMorris3

Recommended Posts

Went to the Rowan football game today, and these were the uniforms I saw (pic not from this game.) They actually wear these at home, and their opponents wear white.

So I figured I needed to give them a better look. Here's what I'm proposing (they keep their current gold helmets with ROWAN on the side.)

Critique and comments would be most appreciated!

Oh yeah, mah gawdson da Professa....yeaaaah Grayson!!! :D i keed, i keed. i still can't find evidence that Wyoming had a yellow alt before changing to their current gold. that said, maybe it's the abundance of brown helping out, but i'm not repulsed by this.

this is actually the college i graduated from this past may. i've never seen the yellow jerseys, so that's new to me and i actually think they wore a few different uniforms while i was there, never seemed too consistent. the whole time i was there we wore brown at home, but the yellow isn't too bad. they always had problems matching yellows on the helmet, jersey, and pants, so the uniforms never really looked that good. a lot of people at the school hate the brown and yellow, but i think it's different and works fine for a d3 college.

the only thing i would change is the name on the jersey. we always went by the profs (another thing a lot of people don't like, but i think is unique), so i wouldn't use professors, just seems odd especially after going to the school.

one thing i would like to see the school do it create a new logo using an owl. we have one now, but it's pretty outdated and can't really be used for athletics to any great effect.

awesome to see my school on here though, never thought i'd see it. good job on the unis too.

I know that Professors is the official name (if we can believe the NCAA program) and that they usually go by Profs. Was just having fun with it a bit. We do need a new owl. And finally, we need to find lace and beads for the current jersey, as they look like the Chiquita Bananas out there.

who are they playing with the 5 stripes on the arms??

I never saw any D3 teams have "unique" uniforms while I played at Carthage. Pretty much everyone looked sharp cause they stayed away from piping (which can look good, but sometimes doesn't) and they went with simple designs. Logos on the other hand....played the muskies...and yes, they had a fish on their helmets!

Anyway, I like what you've done here will. Nice work!

On another small college note, watched the New Hamshire/Georgia Southern game, and UNH had white uniforms, blue numbers, with a light silver drop shadow(I think). maybe it was the rain, but it took me the entire first half to realize the drop shadow was there!

KC, to us and others, Rowan, the Packers, and the like wear chromatic gold helmets. That's opposed to Notre Dame, who wears metallic gold helmets. PCGD, this picture was taken at the game between Rowan and The College of New Jersey.

Rowan was known as Glassboro State prior to the late 1980's but I can't remember the year they changed.

Some people on this bolard have told me to do just that.

will moris (and others) why do you call rowan (and green bay) helmets gold, when that's yellow, wille the oposing teams has gold helmets. Green bay has yellow, Notre Dame has gold, it's a difference between yellow and gold.

I think we say gold cause it sounds better than Yellow. yes...its more yellow than gold, just sounds nicer. I usually call Notre Dame's "Old Gold"

Notre Dame calls the metallic gold they have "Vegas Gold" for the record.

just has a better ring to it..."green & yellow" doesn't have the ring of "green & gold" and I guess you could consider the metallic and chromatic golds sort of like the difference between powder blue and royal blue, or something like that.
