willieg21 Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 Hello from Maryland, USA. Don't know if anyone broke this yet, but apparel maker Under Armour (You've probably seen the TV commercial with the football player yelling: "We must protect this house!!!) has signed and exclusive deal with the Univ. of Maryland football team to provide their uniforms for the 2004 season. (Goodbye Nike). So it looks like there's a new kid on the block. They're supposed to debut this spring. When I get a pic, I'll post it!Under Armour will pay the University 2.4 million bucks.Willie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yh Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 It's refreshing to see that Maryland has decided to update their time-worn uniforms. I mean, how long has it been since those old duds have had a facelift. It's got to be at least 2 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fusebazell Posted January 19, 2004 Share Posted January 19, 2004 Hopefully, Underarmour will be a crappy jersey. Just hate maryland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chazberg Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 So are the jerseys just gonna be skin-tight white long-sleeve shirts then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KCScout76 Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 How about gray "white-beaters" for unis, with the #s, hand written in red marker? I hope they keep the "traditional" college look and not go for some 22nd century "JETSON's" look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 So how many different companies are making college uniforms for basketball, hockey & football?At last count, theres Nike (Bauer/Nike too), adidas, Reebok, SportBell, Aeropostale, CCM, Russell Athletic, New Balance and Champion. How many am I missing? Do Starter or Converse still make them? How about And1 and Fila? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puckcool22 Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 Aeropostale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slapshot Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 Yeah, Aeropostale makes UConn's football uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiznit1083 Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 Yeah, Aeropostale makes UConn's football uniforms.Yeah I noticed that. I buy a lot of clothes from them and they have the little "A" logo. I saw the Huskies play and thought the unis were nice (thought they were made by Nike), but then I noticed the little "A" logo on the sleeve and thought there is no way they make unis. Well, they do. Very strange to see this kind of clothing company making college uniforms. It would be like Abercrombie & Fitch or Eddie Bauer making college unis. Very strange.

Joshawaggie Posted January 20, 2004 Share Posted January 20, 2004 i really liked those maryland ones, too bad they are gone, and probably for some 'innovative' crap.josh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pflava Posted January 21, 2004 Share Posted January 21, 2004 The only thing I don't like about Maryland's current (now former?) uniforms is the helmet. When your school has a cool logo, you should use it on the helmet and not the script of the nickname or school name. Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Duke.......please pay attention here.

Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Duke.......please pay attention here.I think Florida and Illinois' helmets are classic though, and both look better than they would with the logo. Maryland's was good too, it will be a shame to see their look go. Oh, and this is a little OT, but why do Maryland and the Ravens both have logos woth the same red-and-white checkers and yellow cross-thingy? Is it just something to do with EAP living there?
