UCONN in Silver

Recommended Posts

It seems like the jerseys that are suppose to be silver seem to be of the same flat type material that the silver pants are for the Buckeyes currently. If they were of a silver that the Buckeyes wore before the flat silver, then I think they'd look good. Whatever you do, stay away from the trashbag Maverick color jerseys. I agree that they come across as a dirty white or at best a really light flat grey.

Normally I have no beef with a team wanting to provide an alternate look. Thumbs down to UConn, though, on several levels:

  • As previously stated, suffers from "Patriots alt" syndrome, in that they come off as dirty versions of their white set.
  • The style is new for this season. UConn is already treating the world to two new looks. Why bring out yet another that dilutes the identity even more?
  • As a Big East school, UConn comes off as biting off of Georgetown by putting on grays at home.

The throwbacks earlier in this thread would have served as a sufficient alternate, but for the hoop squad in Storrs, that just did not seem to be good enough.

You guys think UConn's are bad, check out the plate of hurl Marquette is sporting there. Seriously, when are teams nowadays gonna knock off the crap and get good looking unis?

I think without a doubt besides the shoulder yoke things, Marquette has one of the nicest unis in college hoops.

Really? I do respect your opinion, but my opinion is that those unis are terrible. the shoulder yoke needs to go, the numbers need to somehow match the word mark at least in color (make them white), and the Barber Pole-painted-Denver Nuggets needs to get out. I hate barber pole striping on jerseys. They look all ghetto and not professional, or even colliegiate for that matter. Marquette, to me, looks like a streetball team, which isnt good.

UConn football has my favorite uniform set in all of NCAA. They should standardize the rest of their athletics to follow that theme.

Yes, the football team has great unis. Although, for some reason I like the bball team having the small amount of red in it. Must be just because that's what I grew up with, when I started cheering for them back in the early 90's.
