new black uniforms

[TR32]

I like tradition, I don't think they need to change, and I don't think we need to talk about it, but....

since it seems they may have made a concession to the fans over the backlash for the 'fear of god' unis, I gotta say, these are much better. Numbers are clear and they have a clean look.

 

[frikkenfrakken]

Not bad.

 

[tbone6004]

Love the black jerseys. The script Indiana is so nice. A third jersey that should be used every year.

 

[NWfor3]

Love the black uniforms and the Indiana script!

 

[trailrunner]

I like the script lettering too

 

[Tammany Hall]

Looks good. I like alternates that have some part of the design that relates to our traditions, such as script Indiana. The Fear of God jerseys had nothing to do with IU, which is why they stunk.

 

[Warison]

We look like Louisville. But more apparent is: just as long as you win, no complaints.

Nothing is sacred in today’s world. Everything is for sale. Just buy it. Annnd win…

Would not be disappointed if IU made these in a red version for their regular away unis... and I'm as old school tradition uniform as they get.

 

[IUfan1957]

Not a fan, black's okay on the gridiron not the hardwood👎

 

[CG Paul]

As an alternate uni, it’s pretty good.

 

[kurt cloverdales]

shorts are to long for lucy, it thought Larry bird's shorts were too long

 

[zeke4ahs]

Like them

 

[YOTHN]

I loved them! Give them 10 years and they'll be traditional unis. Tradition is only the past, people.

 

[asindc]

Not for me.

 

[kraft cheese+macaroni]

Maybe we can wear Old Gold against Oregon.

Case in point. Nothing sacred here. Tradition is only the past. Whatever that means. No reason to stay true to yourself or what you’ve always been. Just find new ways to sell what you are. Yay!

 

[Warison]

I don’t see any reason to f*ck up perfection. But I’m over it now. Sell that sh!t. I just want to win.

IUs basketball uniform is a very recognizable uniform and looks good. Why screw with it?

And why let a coach who is on his way out make that change?

 

[812jmac]

These are hands down the best alternate unis we've had. (Granted, that's a pretty low bar...). Love the script text, but would like the text to be slightly bigger and tilted upwards from left to right, with the number offset to the right. Not too dissimilar to the Bulls away jersey during MJ's rookie year.

 

[Bucket Getter]

I’ve gotten belittled more than most for crapping on that first atrocity and semi-freaking out about those idiotic fear of gawd awful. But I’ve gotta say, the script and state outline on both pant sides kinda won me over. Didn’t mind that at all…even in a color more appropriate for little brother up 65. Bucket’s better half even agreed. And she’s a traditional stickler way more than me.

Wow, no need to be so incredibly dramatic. It's simple, tradition today is what happened yesterday. UK started changing their unis, it was mocked, now you can tell what year the team was based on those unis. That is part of the UK tradition. Same with Fab 5 long shorts with UM.

In the end, if you win, you'll have a tradition regardless of what it is you do. It's pointless to whine about it.

Don't care if they put the names on their forehead. Just win.

 

[Hoosier Clarion]

Decades spent building a solid brand. Then dilute it? So much for MBA's in marketing and advertising. Silly 2+2.

It's not dilution, it's addition. Marketing and Advertising 101. Hence why they do it.

Let’s get Nike to do a one-time only uniform to match the Oregon floor. Since we’re going all out on ugly.

If they’re going to do that….did you ever see the movie ‘Let’s Go To Prison’?

That would get peoples attention!

While the football team was reeling off 10 straight wins at the beginning of the year, was anybody talking about the uniforms?

Kind of an odd statement to make since they also didn’t wear anything out of the ordinary.

Had they worn black or something odd before the Maryland game, it probably would have caused a lengthy thread on here.

Why have school colors if you are not going to stick to it? Enough with the fashion show. jmo

How many national championships and conference championships does the football
program have? How many times over the last 50 years have people seen it in national TV?

 

[daddyhoosier]

I think they should do like a soft yellow with honey comb pattern, then replace Indiana with an otter swimming in its back but at slight angle. Then pair matching otter socks with purple Adidas that rock hot pink accents. Use a game ball that has Mike Davis' face on one half of it. The hardwood could be bears riding tricycles with aliens looking down from above while eating fast food. They can embed Easter eggs in the floor scene too so if people get bored they can try to find all seven.
