Landlord Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 That's an unofficial mockup by some amateur site that makes uniforms for NCAA videogames. Nothing more, nothing less. Our regular uniforms wouldn't change at all, or very very very minimally, in concept (jersey cuts and materials would change, obviously) with a provider switch. As far as alternates, it's hard to overemphasize how badly Adidas has failed in this regard. The black ones were good, not great, but the ketchup bottle getups surrounding it in years were about as bad as you can get. We love our team so much that as a fanbase, we've tried to will ourselves into liking them, but they are what they are. Awful. 2 Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 According to the linked article earlier in the thread, Nebraska said the total compensation (money & gear) package from "competitors" wasn't close to what adidas offered, so I dunno. I don't really doubt it, but I'm also betting the money was 90% of that package. Perlman was publicly on record saying he was disappointed we didn't get more money from Adidas with the new contract. Unless Adidas decides to treat us like absolute unequivocal royalty and makes a monstrous offer, I hope they just bite the "oh darn we're getting .75 million less per year" bullet.

Not even the same angle. That's just poor attention to detail when they already know how poorly people are receiving these new designs. Quote Link to comment
Hammerhead Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 People are OK with changing the N on the helmet? I am definitely not one of those people. Quote Link to comment

We will likely have this tire-tread garbage on ours this year. This isn't even an alternate. Quote Link to comment

zoogs Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I actually like those UCLA uniforms. And in serious, I loved our matte helmet all-reds last year. They were cool. I have complaints about the uniforms here and there, but that's just because I'm a fan. It's unlikely that any company will be making primary or alt uniforms that are *exactly* what I want, and on the whole I'm not too picky about that either. Some years will be better than others. And I have to say, our 2015 unis are a step up from the last couple of years. In fairness to Adidas. Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I've liked all the alternate helmets, and the uniforms were okay until last year. I could put some duct tape on a red jersey and it would look like an authentic jersey from that game. Quote Link to comment

You can't see that "tire tread garbage" if you are more than 10 feet away from the uniform. 1 Quote Link to comment
Red Five Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Maybe Nike could give us a corn pattern inside the numbers like Florida's gator skin numbers. 1 Quote Link to comment

It was pretty subtle last year, and the year before in fact, but the new UCLA uniforms it's extremely visible and doesn't even look like a one color jersey anymore. Zoogs, what are you talking about our 2015 uniforms? We don't have them yet. Quote Link to comment
