Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow.

(the rest are pretty hideous too, but ND's? Holy cow)

If they are allowed to wear zebra shorts, I demand we be allowed to bring back the bumblebees.

I wouldn't even rate them top 3 most hideous in that picture. UCLA, KU, UC are absolutely brutal if you are factoring in the shorts, too.  Hellen Keller come up with these?

It says they will wear them in conference play in March.  However, is the green color a home or away jersey?  Either way they will stand out.  We should counter with the Camo Baby Blues! It would be a painful game on the eyes.

But seriously...is McDonald's sponsoring them during the Shamrock Shake season?

[Ellenson Guerrero]

ND's is the best of the bunch, but boy am I glad we are a Jordan school...

[TJ]

The Notre Dame Doublemints!!! 

I laughed.

[Montana Warrior]

The look is bad!  A blend between Pirates of the Caribbean and tricked out Pajamas.

[lab_warrior]

Adidas somehow has made uniforms that make
Nike's "practice jersey" unis look great in comparison. 

BARF.

Everyone is talking about them.  Mission accomplished from a marketing standpoint.

[WellsstreetWanderer]

 Shorts look like the first 80 degree day at the beach in Kenosha.

Mission fail from a sales standpoint.

Those are truly embarrassments.

Idiocracy anyone?

[lab_warrior]

Can we bring back the Kentucky denim unis?

Does not matter what your or some other 35 plus year old alumni thinks, it was is what a 15 year old prospect thinks.

Nelson says...

[Ari Gold]

aquaflage is really popular right now

You are absolutely correct.  Though I think there is a happy medium.  I love Oregon's football uniforms as do the kids.  I have a hard time thinking the kids will think these are cool, but I'm an old geezer compared to them.

The shorts remind me of the 1980's print pants, puffy parachute type that some folks wore.

[The Love House]

Expect to hear a lot of this during the broadcast ...

"WHAT??? I can't hear you - your shorts are too loud!"

[MUMonster03]

They say everything comes back at some point and apparently zubaz become addidas basketball shorts.

Also, are those really sleeves or are they just zubaz undershirts?

[brewcity77]

If I was a fan of a team with adidas uniforms, I would be writing administration demanding a change. This is two years running that they unveiled a special March uniform that was absolutely hideous. Those god-awful things Baylor and Louisville were in last year were just as bad. Someone there needs to be fired.

[mu35577]

This answers 2 questions.

Yes those are sleeves (ala the NBA-Warriors recent jerserys)

and 2. Will start during conference tourney play

[MUMonster03]

According to this article Louisville, hasn't even been told the details of the jerseys. How can you have no say in what the jerseys that you're school is going to wear will be like?

[Groin_pull]

I expect more from traditional powers like Kansas and UCLA. They should be above this kind of crap. Guess not.

[ErickJD08]

I think this was mentioned but they all look bad.

[MileHigh]

There is a petition...haha
