The white helmet, Husky logo, and blue facemask looks really sharp.

Give me that helmet, blue tops and white pants and it's a great set.

Proverbial throw in a B1G patch too.

Yes.

Blue jersey, white pants ... Classy.

UConn basketball jerseys have pretty much always had red as a secondary color, and football tended to use more gray. I'm sure that in re-branding UConn wanted to standardize a single logo across the board as well as a single color scheme. Because of that, less gray and more red for UConn football. I do agree, though, that the new unis went a bit heavy on the red.
Revisionist history. During the Skip Holtz years, red accents were prominent. It was Randy who made the decision to chenge from red to gray accents. FWIW, I fervently wish that UConn would ditch the white helmets & go back to N.F. Blue permanently. We are not Penn State, & we shouldn't try to imitate PSU on fashion design. Blue is MUCH more classy.

Agree generally Coach, I but like the white helmet in this design much better.

I'd like to see the new helmet for sale. There's a sports store near me that just got the "new" (2013) helmets in.

Think you're right about that - last year someone posted this other replica mini that looked to be just for merchandising purposes.

(I actually like the Schutt versions better than the real gameday ones. They look clean and sharp.)

That is a really weird shape for a helmet. Looks like a Beluga whale.

yes we had red in the uniform back then, but for years we did not... If anybody was up in Storrs when I was ( Fall '88 thru Spring '93 ) you know what I mean... at times when I was there we didn't actually use National Flag Blue in our uni's...

Back to the red in the uni comment.. the red was prominent in the unis during the Skip Holtz days, but not that prominent... not like those ridiculously over the top red face masks on these new unis.. It's just too much IMO... 1) We're not the New England Patriots 2) When we bleed we bleed Husky Blue, NOT Rutgers red....

I'm done....

At this point, I don't care what the uniforms look like (although these new ones are growing on me). As long as we're winning, we can be wearing fishnets.

Nice. Expensive though. Never a white jersey available. One number.

Interesting choice of number ...... maybe Kemba, KFree or Johnny Gwynn still have football eligibility?

How many true sophomore DE's #s are on D1 jersey's this year? I am now expecting double digit sacks from Luke Carrezola.

It is the 2015 season. That is the number representation.

A lot of schools are going w/ generic numbers post O'Bannon (not that there aren't exceptions).

I sure wouldn't mind double digit sacks from LC!
