New Uni's next year?

No. NO! Nononononononononono!

THE LAST thing we need is YET ANOTHER LOGO. Pick 1 or 2, and live with it.

Block C
Men's UC
Women's Basketball C
Baseball C
Husky Dog
Twig and Berries
Etc etc etc

Those 1998 helmets scream I-AA, appropriately.

Just recalling a simpler time when I could watch see the south end of Memorial Stadium from my window on 6th Floor Ellsworth.
 
Now that the cat is out of the bag (a.k.a. Rich Lagow's tweet), what are the chances that new uniforms will be unveiled at the Signing Day Event next week at the RENT?

I would think low. Larger athletic department re-brandings like this, especially by Nike (see Arizona State) and/or Under Armour (see Maryland) are part of a larger press conference that has the new logos, and the uniforms of various sports teams, not just football. These usually get a ton of press, so I HOPE UConn is going in this direction. See the video at the bottom of the link below for an idea of what I am talking about

I think I'll just drop your treat in the bowl and....run!
 
I won't lie - maybe it's my hockey roots, but I've had uniform envy for the new Northwestern unis and their "Habs Stripes" (and I HATE THE CANADIENS).

Something like this in national flag blue:

...combined with these helmets, or something close:

Done.
Helmet definitely a good look, but the uni, not so much...

while thats a great insider idea cap, i struggle to believe they would ever have the leadership/creativeness/balls/fanvision to think of something like that. if we did do that, then its a huge sign that someone in there has woken up and gets it...

Yes. Should be its own event. We had one a few years ago when we went killed Connecticut from the front of football jerseys. It wasn't a big deal but still got national press.
 
Rather have white helmet with blue C....black sucks and is not a UConn color, but would probably work here at UConn being 10 years behind the curve on everything.
 
Lagow's latest tweet: "All black unis would be legit"

Of course, it's not a deciding factor in him coming to UConn, but more interest and excitement is always a good thing.
 
Personally, I'd say white helmets look classy.

you know... I tend to disagree with alot of what you post but I'm totally with you here. White helmet 2 or 3 times/yr would be awesome!!
 
i want all balck unis with a cute puppy husky god on the fornt of the jersey. no numbers or school name
 
Chrome has been done to death.

We need to set a new path.

How about carbon fiber? Gorilla Glass? Copper? Diamonds? Formica?

I like our uniforms, but I think a change is a good thing. I'm not crazy about white helmets, but let's see 'em before we complain.
 
Fur fur fur! Lets put fur on the uniform, done and done. Our players would intimidate anyone who tries to dump red paint on them and shout, "Fur is murder." I could see smallwood and vann laying out someone in a "fur-y!" Plus it will keep our players warm during the late season games at the Rent. Practical and we would become new york's team in terms of the fashion world.

I don't know if you were being 100% facetious or just mostly, but carbon fiber would be BADASS.
 
I love the idea of a faux-carbon fiber weave pattern in the helmets.

The greatest looking piece of sporting equipment I have ever owned is a naked carbon-fiber road bike.

My second choice is copper because, well, what the hell. It'd be horrific, but by God, we'd be noticed.
 
Pepband: what a contrast in the photo. Lame-0 Northwestern uney with stripes like junior high tube socks from the '70s, and an awesome Husky helmet.
Good work though
