SoxSteeler Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Here are some photos from their photo day. I like to see change every now and then and Kentucky seems to be one of Nike's gueine pigs. However i think i like the last design better. The old ones had a more traditional cut and style. These aren't horrible though. The only flare to them are the clavical stripes which are pretty noticable but look alright when there isn't trim around the arm holes. I'm really glad they kept the same number and alpabetical fonts.Patrick Sparks was sick, thats the reason for the empty chair.Newcomer Rekalin SimsOur three 7-footersI think the best thing about them is the way the front numerals and school name are located in relation to each other, very central and easily identifiable but unique in that they are so close. I first saw them a couple days ago and they grow on me everytime i see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoxSteeler Posted August 28, 2005 Author Share Posted August 28, 2005 i thought all evidence of the converse years was destroyed, or at least i was hoping. There were some pretty bad ones in the 90s. The last design had been around for quite awhile, i knew a change was coming sooner than later.The think the blue aways will look pretty sharp too.As far as i know this is the first time they have altered the cut of their jerseys since going to the V-neck. I'm glad they didn't go overboard like UConn and other schools a few years back with the baggy muscle shirt look. I never want to see that again.

Intimidator85 Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Not bad. The piping could have been a lot worse, but they are at least toned down. The damage done is negligible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJD802 Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 I agree with the earlier comment. The stripes on the front shoulder area definitely looks like a WNBA or women's uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing dramatic, but CU's uniforms are now similar throughout all of the departments. Georgetown will be getting new uniforms, which could even be in the school colors (gray and navy). The non-team colored teal, black, and white uniforms killed many fervent fans. Georgetown Basketball will represent the Jordan Brand and wear the Jumpman logo, not the swoosh.

slapshot Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Not bad. Seems like a good (if only slight) update.The name and number seem like they're really low. It is just a shorter collar, or do they seem low to anyone else? Back-to-Back Fatal Forty Champion 2015 & 2016 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
