Title: Uniforms
Post by: AlumKCof93 on February 25, 2010, 10:15:27 AM
Now that we finally won a game with the baby blues, its time to ask which color uni do you like the least.  For me, it's the navy blues.  I hope we can make the baby's the standard road jerseys.  I'm guessing this will be a minority opinion.

If the baby blues had the same lettering for "Marquette" on the chest as the others instead of the block-lettering they currently have they would be PERFECT. We should wear them as our primary non-white jersey.

The white is just too plain for me I guess.

the lettering is definatley the problem with the baby blues, the version they sell to fans with the same Marquette logo as the other 3 is much better.

I can't stand the shoulder piping on our jerseys (or any uniform), all the jerseys would look way better without it.

Also, have to make this the baby blue (sorry, I don't know how to upload it).

The only thing I worry about, with a jersey change, is the lack of distinctiveness.  These really set us apart and were often talked about (UniWatch on ESPN loves them).  Reminiscent of the crazy uniform days of the 70s.  Lets hope if we do change going over to Jumpman that we don't get a homogeneous look.

Totally agree.  I love the fact that our uniform doesn't follow Nike's cookie cutter designs.  Marquette has a unique  and stylish look and I hope they continue to be trend setters in this category and not just follow suit.

I gotta agree with MUDish on this. Our baby blues should have been almost exact copies of those beauties we had back in the day. The retro block lettering just didn't seem to come from any of our old uniforms and looks out of place. Also, the color is much different from the almost teal of the past. I guess teal doesn't exist anymore (except for sarcasm, of course).

I agree with this. Yous, particularly, looked good in those things. But it was only the injured guys wearing them...at least that's what I thought.

PLEASE keep these uniforms!  I LOVE em!  They are unique, distinctive!  why would we want to be like every other team in the country.  We have a history of cool uniforms!  The baby blues rock!  The whites are nice but so unoriginal at home, 90 percent of the teams in the country wear white at home.

There's gotta be a line drawn though, don't you think?  When does UNC become Jordan U?  I've ALWAYS been a Jordan brand fan and I think it's awesome that Marquette is a part of it.  But I wouldn't want us to lose our identity just so we can celebrate the anniversary of Jordan.  Too much and too far, imo.

Actually thought to myself today I'm glad we were wearing the Baby Blues last night and Jimmy got Sport's Centers #1 Play of the Day - as we were seen in our coolest, hip-est, jerseys.  Sounds dumb to say as a grown man, but teenage kids (recruits) certainly can be influenced to a degree on uniform and shoe brand...I think our Baby Blues are very distinctive, hip and urban.

Maaayyybe UNC could get away with that since its actually where he went, but what are the other schools celebrating?  Notwithstanding the fact that those unis look sweet, changing your colors to commemorate a brand? weak.

As for the silver Jordan unis, I say:

UNC = pretty cool since they spawned Jordan.
Georgetown = pretty cool, since that is within their color scheme.
Everyone else = LAME.  Stick with your colors!

However, those silver shoes knock me out.  I gotta get my feet into some of those.

Post by: Marquette_g on February 25, 2010, 05:17:14 PM
I like the whites the best, I feel they are the only ones where the piping is an accent and not a distraction.

I also don't think they are that unique as I feel they share some pretty close similarities with Georgetown and Depaul in our conference alone. 

Please bring on the next set.

Excellent. Now with the baby blue uniforms and silver jordans next year, we need only change the font on the jersey to read, "North Carolina".

Dump the baby blues - they're not MU.

Except, they are MU.

Also, I believe this thread/poll is misleading because you've got people listing baby blues first, then in their explanation they're talking about how much they love the baby blues.

I will wager that the players, to a man, think the baby blues are by far our best uniforms.

First of all I LOVE LOVE LOVE our uniforms not just because I'm a marquette fan but they really look sweet (side stripes). I would hate to do what all the other teams are doing with those funky designs on their back. Also, I like the baby blues AND the block lettering (just so they all aren't the same) but for the people saying that we have to get rid of the navy we just can't. We aren't trying to become a UNC so there fore we have to keep the navys. I kind of wish wed stick to the yellow just for about 5 games a year for the big games. Is jordan really going to make us change styles?

I wish for one game a year they'd go for the final fours year throwbacks.

Baby blues are the best. Gold are the worst. They give me a headache.

That's why we should wear them as much as possible, to throw off the other team by making them sick when they have to guard us!  It's about time that Marquette had a uniform outlawed by the NCAA for throwing off the opposing team.  It's been over forty years since that happened, and its time to do it again!!!
Title: Re: Uniforms
Post by: The Pickle on February 25, 2010, 07:14:58 PM
I like we are having Jordan sponsor us but agree with keeping the distinctness (if that's a word) of our uniforms.  I just hope we don't do the HUGE shorts tight-a$$ tops like Syracuse and Kentucky.  Those uniforms are just stupid...

I like the baby blues. It's the history behind them. I heard Marquette has more combinations of uniforms than almost any other team (including their warmup combos) any truth to this?
Title: Re: Uniforms
Post by: wojosdojo on February 25, 2010, 10:39:44 PM
Well in the first place not too many teams have four jerseys (MU, ND, WVU, Ducks, Cal, Maryland). But I only saw the guys wear those jordan blue/lightblue warmups this year. Last year I think they had 3 though.

I would really like to see us go back to the lettering that is on the baby blues on all unis right now, and lose the paneling on the shoulders, but NEVER lose the checkering on the sides--AWESOME.
I also might add that I am a big fan of the black shoes/socks combo with the golds and navys, and wearing the whites with the white and baby blues.  Since Jimmy's incredible buzzer beater, I dislike the baby blues a lot less.
I agree, too, that I hope our unis don't get too "Nike-fied" like Kentucky, 'Cuse, Gonzaga, et. al., those look awful.
