Thad Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 From the Media Guide:ASU AND NIKESince 2007, Nike has been the official apparel and footwear provider for Appalachian football.In addition to its state-of-the-art footwear, the Mountaineers? uniforms and off-field apparel and coaches? sideline wear are all producedby Nike. For the second-straight year, Nike will provide ASU with an ?alternate? third uniform to be worn during one home game. This year?salternate uni features a gold jersey and will be worn by the Apps when they host North Carolina Central for homecoming on Oct. 10.Beginning in 2009-10, all 20 of ASU?s varsity programs programs will make the transition to Nike footwear and apparel.Oh my.

hecticbro Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Half of the other teams with yellow or gold in their color scheme have done this. It's nothing too shocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sacker12 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 My understanding is that the alt will be a yellow version of the current road jersey. I say that because it is easier to imagine the yellow and white being swapped. Black pants will most likely be used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sodboy13 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I like it, but I don't like it as much as their Denver Gold-style throwbacks from last year.

Billy B Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I like it. The black-gold-black is exactly what I wore one game last year and it looks pretty sharp. And it looks like #5 is wearing a girdle with his pants a few inches above his knee and no knee pads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thmst30 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 I think I like them OK. However this better be all Nike has planned for us. I don't want App. St. to become the Oregon of the FCS. So far they have done us right though with these alts, and the very nice throwbacks they made for us last year. Nike does scare me though when they are in control of jersey design.

Red Wolf Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Not bad at all. Now, if they'd gone with gold pants as well like Southern Miss in last year's New Orleans Bowl, that would have been bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
