tmacsports Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 What should have been (in my opinion). What have made it easier to mix and match. Add more white to orange. Got rid of two tone masks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razorback447 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 A couple of OrSt pics I hadn't seen posted before: When I just glanced at that second picture real quick I felt like it was Syracuse, Virginia Tech and Oregon St uniforms on display.With that being said, all three of those uniforms are really growing on me. I'm definitely a fan of the black and white looks and the orange looks pretty solid as well. Better than I thought that it would look when I first saw them.

29texan Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I like the white one. Blue? Not so much... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8BW14 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I like the white one. Blue? Not so much...The blue would be much better if they had just gone with a gloss helmet and made the blue part of the husky clear so that it matched the helmet. Why would that have been so hard?

aawagner011 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I am getting word through the Twitter grapevine that West Viriginia will be unveiled in 20 minutes. Take it with a grain of salt but that's what I've heard. At the very least it will happen sometime within the next few hours if that source is wrong.

nuordr Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 boring generic crap.I am disappointed in these uniforms....I hate plain pants! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
illini1 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 boring generic crap.I might be the only one, but I actually like that number font. I think they should have created a custom font to match the WV logo though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razorback447 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 I love that yellow helmet. Wish the white one would have had a blue facemask. I think that would have tied it in to the uniform much better. It just seems to be a little tooplain as it is now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they should have created a custom font to match the WV logo though.That would make sense though which is usually not how this is playing out anymore.Is it just me but does the WV Blue uniform look purple while the helmet looks blue.

TimEOBrien Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Not terrible (aside from pit stains), but pretty damn lame. Again, Nike stripes = highlight their uniform cut = lame.I would've preferred they do something like this request I did (note it was a request, the pants suck IMO but that's what he wanted...)

I don't think it is though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8BW14 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 So I know this is kinda off topic, but after seeing what these schools have been doing with Nike this year, and being an Illinois fan, I shudder to think what will happen to the Fighting Illini in 2014.

I have generally had a very favorable opinion of Nike designs but 2013 has been a severe disappointment for me. Everything seems very generic and "paint by numbers." Protocol these days seems to be to fill in the half-circle sleeve panel and apply a custom number font with some arbitrarily selected bs reason for the typeset's inspiration. The blame truly lies with the teams for accepting such subpar work. None of these teams even look remotely different from one another. While I think there are some definite flaws in the set, the only new identity refresh that I think works is Oregon State. That design at least conveys something unique and sets them apart in terms of design. Cal, UNC, West Virginia, UCF, etc all look like generic cookie cutter templates that fit the requirement of "kewl design, recruits will love them!" I have to hand it to my school, UGA. At least with our "rebrand" (if that's even applicable- just a new secondary logo and fonts) we stuck to our guns and recognized what it means to convey the Georgia brand. The fonts are the only shift in identity and even then, they almost look like a rounder Chicago Bears throwback model. I love what we did- changed to all new materials and kept all collars, cuffs, and signature striping the same. Only 1 helmet, 2 jerseys and 1 pair of pants.
