AndrewG70 Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Speaking of Under Armour football uniforms -- ever notice that Maryland is (I believe) the only school to wear Under Armour football uniforms (jerseys, pants)? It should be no coincidence since the founder of Under Armour, Kevin Plank, played football for Maryland until the 1995 season. My brother was a teammate of his for four years.

Was he a marketing major by any chance? The success of the Under Armour brand is marketing/advertising genius. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pittfan11 Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Wasn't Maryland supplied by Nike before that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VandyDelphia Mike Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Wasn't Maryland supplied by Nike before that?Yes.And their basketball team was still Nike, at least last season.Yes, I know. Old picture. But they haven't changed. For good reason, too; Maryland's are some of the nicest uniforms in all of collegiate basketball.

Jigga Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I just saw their new commercial where there's some pop warner football team, it's pretty cool.

Blue Falcon Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I can't stand those Under Armour commercials. The first one made it look like they were a bunch of guys in a prison workout room. Then again, with players like Darryl Henley, Rae Carruth, and OJ Simpson, maybe that's not such a slight after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamingboy Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I hate Under Armour Commericals. Particularly when they are shown again and again and again. I swear, by the end of the show I was watching, I thought I was going to run out onto the streets and yell to the sky "WE MUST PROTECT THIS HOUSE!" Insert Witty Signature Here.
