The Uniform Thread

[Art Vandelay]

This whole move has been a masterstroke of brilliance by Nike. Think of how many schools that are now doing alternate uniforms and helmets each season. I wonder how much money Nike has made off of this.

I've often wondered how much if, any do sponsored schools pay for shoes and equipment. I'm sure it varies from school to school. I assume big programs like Oregon, Texas, and Alabama get whatever they want for free. I don't know about places like BYU or OSU

It took me a minute to grasp why Oregon would be wearing Orange. The article is about Oregon St. So, it appears that Orange Ducks are off-limits but not Orange Beavers.

I guess that explains the lack of effort by the design team.

HFN, please accept my deepest apology.

Note: I'm not offering my deepest apologies, just my deepest apology. That would have been overkill.

I don't get it. What is wrong with those Beaver unis?

STOP THE PRESSES!!!! This story is a shocker.

Oregon has another new ugly uniform. The poor overworked Oregon uniform designers at Nike were probably able to get a little time off this week. It must have been easy copying Syracuse.

Gross, worst uniforms ever. Also, Vic didn't know there were two schools in Oregon.

Edit: Vic I accept your apology at whatever depth it reached.

They're confusing "the new black" with black, it seems.

I've thought that the Beavs updated logo looks a lot like the dramatic chipmunk. They should just go for it and change their logo to the actual dramatic chipmunk.

Tons and tons of $$$$$.

Nike stock has been a great investment since I bought a few shares almost two years ago. Apparently owning 10 shares of stock on eTrade doesn't get one into the employee store though.

Here's a decent read on the alternate helmets and the costs to the fans, i mean, schools.

Interesting. I had no idea it was such a cost expenditure.

Oregon State may seem like a redheaded step child to Oregon, but Uncle Phil is still a big Beaver Believer and supports them financially as much or more than anyone else personally. NIKE employs thousands of OSU grads with their design degrees.

Northwesterns wounded warrior uniforms will have blood splatter on them. I think this is taking things a bit too far.
