I'm just curious when we're due for new jerseys. I mean ours used to be super cool and unique then a ton of other schools got the same style and plus we've gotten out of the Crean/Buzz era now that took us into the retro style so I'd like to see something new and flashy. Any info on this?
I'm a fan of what we have right now. We have four different sets (white, yellow, dark blue, powder blue) that allow us to mix and match during the season. I'm also a BIG fan of the piping we have down our sides. That, to me at least, is really cool.
I wouldn't mind creating a new version of this design:

Nah, like the current ones too much to change it.

Those look like the basketball versions of the Packer's throwback jerseys. Pass. It looks too dated. I understand you're going to update it, but it doesn't have anything appealing to update I think. What they have now is decent. Let's throw some more ideas out there. It doesn't hurt to look.

I love what we have to but it's not unique anymore. From my time deciding on MU (08-09) to my JR year everybody knew us by our uniforms in the very least but now Depaul even has the same style. i think it's time to put it in the books as a success and start fresh.

I agree with this completely. I'd be open to updating them again like we did when we switched from Converse to Jordan, but still keeping the current flavor. I'd also be open to switching to some other retro inspired uniform like the George Thompson-era one pictured above...
Gotta stay flashy.

What is the exact rule on the untucked jerseys? Is it possible to make a version that can be tucked in but still honor the name on the bottom style?

The Golden Eagle logo can be changed. It doesn't do too much for me.

You could put the name across the front and/or back of the shorts if you have to tuck the shirts in. I can't really think of a way to do that that wouldn't look stupid, though.
Of course, I'd be all in favor of bringing back the bumblebees. I bet the uniform rules have been changed so many times by the NCAA since the 1970's that they could find a way to get some form of the bumblebees approved now.
We could be the first team to rock camo jerseys as our actual jerseys

Wouldn't be surprised but would that be appealing now days? I doubt it.

That looks like the beginnings of a soccer jersey. It's too .... rigid and European in styling.
I like the general design of our jerseys, except the MARQUETTE across the front is pretty basic. I'd like to see that changed, possibly to the swoosh style like we used in the 70's.

I saw a freshman boy at mass last night wearing an MU baby blue jersey (over a short-sleeved t-shirt, otherwise it would be inappropriate for mass ::) ). The best part was the multi-colored bars on the side were prety faded. To me, that means he wears it so much, it had faded from all of the washings. I then felt better about the future of America.

As I recall in the Danny Pudi film, the NCAA has a ban on untucked jerseys.
Speaking of Danny Pudi, he has a cameo appearance in the Captain America 2.
There was a team last year (I can't recall which one), that enabled their players to customize the "ink stain" design on the back of their jerseys. I'd give up our current ink stain design to allow for some individuality for the players.
As for the piping...I'd like to see four sets of unis with four different sets of piping...one consistent with the current design, one with the urban camo design of the doc rivers days, one bumble bee, and one that is off-the-board new.
These please--white w/navy lettering, navy w/gold lettering, gold w/navy lettering,
and instead of zig-zags, just make the side checkers skinnier:

Not sure what the NCAA regulations are about tucking in jerseys, but I'd trade our current valour blues
with a tucked in version of the Bo Ellis ones. Simple, throwback, awesome look.
Also, no camo BS, no black, pink, and no matching lettering/jersey colors. Let
Oregon be Nike's Frankenstein-ish petri dish uniform experiment.
All of the ones you are posting are so ugly. Much different times.
What about a Marquette version of one of the older Indiana Pacers jerseys?

Either that or we can go with something like the Golden State Warriors logo of the Bridge. We'll just use the Hoan Bridge instead. For the alternate jersey, we'll put the Hoan Bridge on there when it's under construction and have it littered with construction barrels, cones, and heavy traffic. No would be able to copy that trendsetting idea.

6th street bridge would be better since it connects Africa and Mexico
Bring back the Bumblebee's, I always thought the other coaches excuse that they about they made their players dizzy was Bullsh!t. They didn't seem to effect our players and they had to look at them while playing too!
What made our uni's great in the 70's is that we weren't trying to relive the 40's and 50's. Let's stop looking back and look ahead.
Tell Nike they have a blank canvas and ask them to come back with 5 sets for 2014-2015 (2 home / 2 away / 1 "both"). Some might look hideous, some may look great but I would love to take some real chances and get back to our heritage. And to me that heritage is constantly creating heritage rather than re-living it.

Agreed. Let's go with blue and gold metallics that shine like the Oregon football helmets.
All in favor.... say "I" .

It's not a matter of the Nuggets ripping them off, it's a matter of your nuggets getting ripped off when take these things off. Look how tight they look !!!

Hahahaha we should employ some of the biggest hipsters in NYC to come up with a new skinny uni design.
Why the hell would we consider anything other than letting Bo Ellis design our jerseys?

Why not just add a net set? The jerseys they have now are great. How about just a couple new alternates they wear multiple times.

That would be the best scenario.
I think we should update them a bit, and add a set that has a script "marquette" across the chest. I really liked the Kansas and Memphis versions this year, almost like a baseball jersey font. I doubt it will happen as the current format is branded on everything else, but would be cool.
Does anyone know where I can get a Long Sleeve Marquette Warriors shirt. (XL) New!
The days of a school designing its own uniforms are done. Now it's shoe and apparel companies that call the shots.
I believe the bumblebee jerseys are banned as well, but I would support bringing those back if the rules were changed.
maybe we could copy another legendary Milwaukee team's uniforms?

Is there a statute of limitations on a jersey ban? After seeing all the wild stuff the NCAA allows in football, I have a hard time believing the bumblebees would still be a problem.
