Yeah I noticed that. They played Rutgers, who wore their scarlet. Looked like 10 players from the same team on the floor.

Not a good idea for a 12th place team with a forsaken coach.
Besides being ugly, yes............................
You need more than a new ugly uniform to win. You need at least a mediocre coach and players who are mentally tough for a full 40 minutes.
Other than that, they're a great waste of money.
I want to see those UCLA blue uniforms instead of that. They really wearing that tonight? SMH.
These are about selling merch and regardless of first place or twelfth place…IU merch sells
You are absolutely right. But tradition vs. tradition tonight. Save those uniforms for the Penn St game. National television tonight. Not on BTN or Peacock. Just my opinion
My opinion is that we should Never be using any of these "special" uniforms for Any reason...
Our uniform is our Uniform period... If we're consistent in that approach no one can have a valid complaint.
I'm also of the opinion that we should leave off the National Championship "stars"; this group didn't earn those and the closest they'll get to a real one is by buying a ticket...

Long, long ago….I played in a pickup game at the HPER building against a group of 5 guys who wore better designed, homemade uniforms than these.
I agree. It's a Contract with Adidas. Why where them tonight? Maybe that is the deal. I'm just saying it's first time UCLA has ever come to Bloomington. Wear the cream and crimson. Save the Adidas uniforms for Penn state. Go Hoosiers
Lmao 🤣
The Hyper is or used to be the best pick up basketball in the state. Great players. So fun.
You are correct.
This is a big game for the BIG as it is the first intra league matchup of it's two most prominent programs. The ACC has Duke and UNC, the BIG now has IU and UCLA.
This is an abortion. A clothes hanger, back alley, sepsis inducing abortion.
Whoever is modeling these uni’s comes well “packaged”. Good for him/sad for me.
Horrible. Why does IU mess with it's brand equity? Bad decision, horrible uni.
I played there every noon for two years. Probably the reason I did not graduate on time.
The really good news is these unis are so pathetic, no one will even notice painted nails. 😂
Red and white for Valentine’s Day. What else can I say? Oh, it’s game day, so “Go IU”, too!
Playing tonight in special pants tells me there’s too much in the bank for too little in the tank.
I liked the old way when home teams wore light and visiting wore dark.
Im old and still hate alternative uniforms in all sports at all levels. Wear the school colors. What at home and crimson on the road.
OMGAnything is better than those damn adidas uniforms that they made years ago.
I quite caring about uniforms 15 years ago when if you even mentioned putting the names on the jerseys or updating them people lost it.
I could care less what they wear as long as they win.
Probably wearing them tonight because UCLA is also Adidas. Are the Bruins wearing a "different" uni tonight?
Yeah... they suck and are just part of adidas' design template as seen on Nebraska last night with their N in place of the IU and some kind of white stripe design instead of that red, black, orange white zig-zaggy crap.
Man...marketing at IU needs some help. Am I alone here that one of the reasons I'm gonna watch the game on my phone, during my sons game tonight... is for the historical and nostalgic..."coolness"... of UCLA playing in Assembly Hall. They need to be wearing their traditional baby blues, and we need to be wearing our traditional whites. Damn it.
I honestly might not watch the game now because of this.
UCLA isn't even an Adidas school any more. They're Jordan brand now.
