TFoA Posted May 21, 2008 Share Posted May 21, 2008 Could someone call UAB and tell them that they're like 4 years behind the times with their design? Broncos piping = out of style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimsimo Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Those are just plain cheesy. The Bama and AU fans (and even the Troy fans) will have fun with these.What was wrong with what they had? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oz615 Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 What was wrong with what they had?I'm wondering the same thing myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacker12 Posted May 22, 2008 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I wish they stuck with what they had. But, since the old design was during the Watson Brown era, I guess Callaway wanted to go with a new design. They still could have stuck with the logo on the left leg, though. They just look too plain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish a team would break out something that ties in their mascots. Even the NFL doesn't do this. Just making a design and putting a logo on doesn't make it inclusive. I think the Chargers are the only team that really does this in any football level. Maybe I am wrong. Sorry to go off topic there but inclusion of the dragon ala the NY Dragons older pre Nike unis would have looked great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacker12 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Mainly, I was just trying to imply that they could have done something to the uniform to make it stand out a little bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
autrojan Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Being from AL, notice how all the major colleges are now wearing other threads than that of an AL company, Russell? Why is that?UAB still sucks, though. GO TROJANS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

footballfiji Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 Being from AL, notice how all the major colleges are now wearing other threads than that of an AL company, Russell? Why is that?UAB still sucks, though. GO TROJANS!Probably because there is less pressure to do so now. When Berkshire Hathaway bought the company they've slowly began to move most of the production out of Alexander City, Alabama and to other, more cost effective, places. Also most of the corporate business is done at the Atlanta headquarters and not in Alex City (which is probably a reason that UT Chattanooga and Georgia Tech are both still Russell Schools).Russell has developed a unique niche for small colleges and high school and they will probably stick to that for the time being.
