New Uniforms Will Be Out Tomorrow

[3uconn]

@AmoreCourant: Shabazz Napier will be among athletes modeling new uniforms Thursday #UConnmen

Seems good that he will be one of the people doing it.

How did they keep them Top Secret without an early leak? Amazing!

Those are Adidas uniforms. We have nothing to worry about as Nike designs our uniforms.

I thought the original press release for the new logo last week said new uniforms wouldn't be out until the Fall? Was that only for football?

EDIT: nevermind....

The University of Connecticut will host a media opportunity with Director of Athletics Warde Manuel on Thursday, April 18, 2013 as UConn formally introduces its new “graphic identity” program for athletics.
For the public, the new UConn graphics also will be debuted on Thursday at 1:30 p.m. in Gampel Pavilion. That event will feature UConn student-athletes wearing new uniforms and apparel and the new UConn football helmet design will be unveiled.
Athletes who will model UConn’s new look include:

Representing Baseball, Connor David; Men’s Basketball, Shabazz Napier; Women’s Basketball, Bria Hartley and Kelly Faris; Men’s Hockey, Brant Harris; Field Hockey, Alicia Angelini; Football, Lyle McCombs and Yawin Smallwood; Men’s Soccer, Andre Blake and Mamadou Doudou Diouf; Women’s Soccer, Andrea Plucenik; Softball, Dana Hughes; and representingVolleyball, Marissa Prinzbach.

I agree.. Please no zebra striped shorts or camo or anything like that..

Crazy conspiracy theory: maybe Shabazz is waiting until this ceremony to announce he's coming back next year? It would certainly be a kick in the crotch to see him model a uniform just to bolt into the draft and never actually wear it in-game.

see above. the LVille uni's are addidas. UCONN is Nike sponsored.

Football jersey change is a little more dramatic.

LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the new football uni's. The bball ones are decent too. No complaints here.

 

[upstater]

Here the Women's:

Red "U" please, not red outlines on numbers.

 

[GlastonTim]

Not a fan of the Nike logo over the U, looks like puncuation, am I now supposed to pronounce it ewconn?

 

[Lefty2one]

Disappointed there weren't greater changes to the basketball uniforms. The football ones are DOPE though. Love them.
