Solid work here CAB! Nice to see something different. Creighton is by far the best one...the rainbow Bucks-style striping works great. The Baylor paw on the shorts is very clever, and the winged shorts for Oregon looks good. The only one I'm not a fan of is Purdue...I feel like their identity garners bolder striping. Your concept is a little dainty to me.

Kansas: The Jayhawks are basically the guinea pig for Adidas right now, rolling out a new look almost every year. I think a program with as much tradition and history as Kansas needs a consistent uniform set. IMO, they had it best with their 2008 championship unis. I took that basic look and made some minor adjustments, including a new western-style font, which I think fits them better than their current font.

Wichita State: Yet another small school that is getting much more media attention after seeing great success in the tourney last year and could potentially go undefeated this regular season. I gave them some clean, modern uniforms with a simple wheat motif on the sides. I worried that it might come off as a tire track, but I think most fans would get the idea. I loved the "Shockers" wordmark seen on their Final Four unis last year, so I decided to use that one both the home and road jerseys.

I'am diggin the wheat motif on the sides. If they look too "tire mark" like, just curve the edges and that should solve it. I'd add another row to the jersey part...kind of reminds of adidas from the front with three lines when they are a Nike school.

Also, I like the way you have the shockers in all gold on the front of the black jerseys...but the school always has gold outline and black filling when on black garments.

Lastly, you got to add WuShock somewhere on the shorts.

Louisville: Again inspired by the school's football uniforms. Louisville is another school that has fallen victim to Adidas's ridiculous trends like zubaz and sleeved jerseys. I wanted to give them a consistent look that is simple, yet modern.

Colorado: Similar to Louisville in that I believe they need a clean, modern uniform. I tried to give them a look that fit well with their identity of italicized fonts and conveyed the motion of a charging buffalo.

San Diego State: The Aztecs' current uniforms are about as plain as can be. That's not a terrible thing, but I think a team called the Aztecs should have something at least a little lively. I kept it simple but still gave them a subtle Aztec pattern on the shorts. The other major change is the wordmark. I think "SAN DIEGO STATE" is just too much to try to spell out on the front of a basketball uniform.

Louisville and Colorado are solid, no complaints.

For SDSU I would add the shorts striping to the jerseys, which are REALLY plain right now.

I did originally have that design on the jersey, but SDSU already has a very simple identity and I didn't want to stray too far from that.

What if you did SDSU like this:



SAN DIEGO

2

STATE

Also, on your alts, I'd make the wordmark white and the number black with a white outline. Everything would be easier to read that way.
