Mr. Wang Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 I know Tulane has used Russell Athletic for the past few years. From this picture, can anyone tell who is making this years set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackKnight1 Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 The logo on the uniforms is Aeropostale. They, Aeropostale had there logo on UConn's football uniform a few years ago. It's pretty funny with all the logos on uniforms now that really very few of those companies actually make the uniforms. Most use an athletic uniform company to make the uniform and have them put the "sponsor" logo on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Wang Posted December 6, 2005 Author Share Posted December 6, 2005 Aeropostale? As in the company that is very similar to Abercrombie and The Gap? Thats very strange. Also, the Tulane football team wore Russell this season, is there any type of guidelines as far as different teams of the same school wearing different companies?

Not really...usually, it's got a lot to do with the sneaker endorsement contracts signed by the coaches...Example: Virginia Tech wears Nike for football, but wears adidas for basketball.

sacker12 Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 Also, North Texas had uniforms with the New Balance logo on them. And, New Balance doesn't usually make uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true - it has really been only the last 7-8 years or so that the big shoe manufacturers have gone in for the "all sports deal" with a school in place of the individual shoe deals with the coaches. Typically the "all sports deals" are either with a school who is perennially in the top 25 in both football and men's basketball, or with a school who is considered "elite" in one sport or the other (like Kentucky for men's basketball or USC for football).

TBGKon Posted December 6, 2005 Share Posted December 6, 2005 USF uses SportsBell (or BellSports) for football and Nike for B-Ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Wang Posted December 6, 2005 Author Share Posted December 6, 2005 Aeropostale is a mall-based specialty retailer of casual apparel for young people. The fact that they are making NCAA Div I basketball uniforms is a little strange. Whats next, J Crew is going to make the jerseys for Florida State football?

sacker12 Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 USF uses SportsBell (or BellSports) for football and Nike for B-Ball Yes, USF does use Sports Belle. They used to be big in 1A football until they became the uniform maker for Adidas. Then, most of the teams that used Sports Belle became Adidas schools and stuck with Adidas even after they quit getting uniforms made by Sports Belle.

Not nearly as big of a sham as indoor soccer. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't mean it isn't played exclusively by snooty white guys.Is the indoor version considered a sham, kind of the way indoor soccer is?Depends I guess. Here in Canada, field lacrosse is quite secondary. Indoor lacrosse at the ACC regularly attracts 16-17k, and the Pepsi Centre in Denver is sold out for most NLL games. I can tell ya the players are far from snooty considering they are cops, teachers, students etc.The MLL...well I think 3-5k is avg...and the games are quite boring.
