New Uniforms for Tourney

[Zarathustra]

The best scenario I can think of is for the team to wear the white uniform for the next six games.

I see what you imply there... well done...!
But if we have to wear Navy Blue...( three times ) the result will
still be a "W". GO HUSKIES!

I like them. But what's more impressive is the amount of analyzing that's being done over a uniform.

I don't want to sound too much like an old curmudgeon, but having just voted yes on a school referendum in the little district where I live in northern Wisconsin that's going to see my property taxes rise by $100's a year if it passes I hope the uniforms are being paid for by one of the school's corporate sponsors and not by the University or the state. Seems like Connecticut has got some serious financial issues going on from what I read.

Personally, I like the RED U but I like the modeling crew even more!

One reason for different uniforms is an expanding stock of things to sell.

Someone who bought a uni 2 years ago now may spend again to get this one.

Me likey. No uniform is going to be universally loved, but I think it's great and they look cool. As one poster put it, thought, it's not what's on them, rather what's in them that counts. And as long as they aren't those silver/grey ones, I think most of us can rest easy on the mojo front LOL...

Imagine if you are an Oregon football fan.

Would rather have CONNECTICUT on the front. UCONN denotes them representing the school, CONNECTICUT the entire state.

 

[Big Fan]

Well they'll only have to wear the blue ones if they play USC and maybe in the Final 4 of there aren't any upsets

Won't fit with the school's branding.

In game I keep doing a double take because of that dark left leg. Weird, just weird.

On the way uniforms, it's a big red stripe.

Hopefully we get to see it. I'm fairly confident, but terribly superstitious.

I keep thinking I see compression shorts on just one leg.

 

[MooseJaw]

Don't care for them, the one leg with color is so Jr. High

 

[RockyMTblue2]

I keep thinking I see compression shorts on just one leg.

Exactly!

 

[MSGRET]

They can wear this uniform as long as they play like they did against Arkansas St. for the rest of the Tournament.

I agree. I like the jerseys, but the pants look like the legs are of different lengths.

Call me crazy, but I saw those shots and immediately thought of 1995:

Ahem. Thirty years ago this happened.

Paige - ing 1995

 

[CL82]

I wonder if we will keep them for next year.

Personally, I wouldn't mind a uniform that incorporated 12 stars, one for each championship. For a while we did do that, though it was more of a fabric pattern than obvious stars.

 

[Stagnant]

Hated the uniforms. Especially the blue ones. But I may need to reconsider now that we have accomplished so much with them.

 

[Centerstream]

Pretty sure that's the old one Paige is holding. If you watch it, she changes the shirt to the new one

Oh...we're supposed to watch a video before posting our comments? What a concept. Is this in Nan's pinned rules thread?

 

[Nyskier]

I really like them, especially the blue ones. Especially now!!

 

[Superhuskies]

HATED THEM
NOW LOVE THEM

 

[ucmiami2]

All good!
No bonfires need to dispose of them!

(I really don't care as long as they are composed of Blue and White as the primary colors, with only a smattering of red as highlighting. I really disliked that color rush phase that Nike ran for a while.)

If we went to stars, over time the uniforms would look like the American flag.
