Uniforms

[muhoops1]

Oh, no,here comes another of "my brand of crazy" thoughts....Was it Public Enemy and Chuck D who wrote, "My 98 Oldsmobile?" Model #, not Year. Since MU is sure to up the tempo a bit, would it  behoove our game day experience dj to honor the 98th season of Warrior hoops with a little ChuckD noise??...."smoke is comin' ...when I buuurn.. rubber when my wheeeels turn."

Suckas to the side I know ya hate my '98....you gonna get yours.

Maybe it's time we do what the NBA is doing:

I disagree, there's a reason why teams all over the country have copied our uniform.

Jordan is still the premier brand in basketball. Plus now that Jimmy MF Butler is signed up with Jordan that we should stick with the brand.

I'm hesitant to start advocating for a uni change because there's always a chance that we'll end up with a dud. Though looking back through history I would say that we haven't had any duds, especially the hideous baby blues.  

Have teams really copied or does Jordan brand only have one look?

I have thought from day one our current uniforms are duds, especially the hideous baby blues

When it originally came out it was in collaboration between Crean/Marquette and Converse. Jordan Brand wasn't even involved yet. It was a spin off of the look from our unis from 71 to 74: http://wiki.muscoop.com/lib/exe/detail.php/the_marquette_jersey_project/7174road.jpg?id=the_marquette_jersey_project%3Astart

There's a reason that everyone copied the look. It's because it was the freshest uni when it came out. It's just getting a little stale now.

I forgot about the converse involvement, at least we agree that it has gotten stale.

I still think our baby blues are only outdone on ugliness by whatever atrocity Adidas is rolling out, from the neon to the diapers.

We will never agree on this. I heart the baby blues.

I honestly feel that the baby blues are amongst the best looking uniforms in all of sports and even if they do change it up hope they are kept as an alternate

[DUNKS45]

I like the baby blues too

[Silkk the Shaka]

Traditional is different.  Always liked the 2001-2003 home version. Very Duke like.

NO. If we are going to make a change, it should be to something unique and trend-setting again. I don't want to be Duke. I want to be Marquette.

Same!

It's really too bad that these days you pretty much need to go with a major company. For the most part, it's adidas, Nike, Under Armour, or nothing, and with the advent of AAU all of your recruiting is tied to which brand that is. Al's partnership with local distributors in the 1970s allowed us to have the freedom we did and led to some of the coolest designs CBB ever witnessed. You just can't do that anymore.

Juan Anderson designed the uniforms his high school team used and modeled them on Marquette. I always wished he would have had the chance to design a uniform here. Unfortunately, as the shoe companies have more influence, uniforms have become more, well, uniform. Even when we see new, different uniforms, it's not just one team wearing them, it's the 5-6 flagship schools for the brand.

The only way to stand out is if your biggest booster runs one of the shoe companies (cough, Oregon, cough). Otherwise, it's pretty much just fall in line.

Agree!!!

[willie warrior]

Nothing beats the Bumblebee psychedelic uniforms that hallucinated the opponents into submission. A close second would be Belushi on SNL with his bumblebee costume.

Totally agree.  Love the baby blues!

Wojo and Presutti in Oregon today, at the Jordan facility.

I am definitely not a fan of when teams wear those jerseys. Louisville can keep 'em.

[Skatastrophy]

As long as we aren't going the direction of their "Hare Jordan" line. That shizz is ridiculous.

[LAMUfan]

crazy shoes are ok by me.  A jersey like that would not be cool though.

If something like that was the side trim instead of the strips I'd like it.

[LAMUfan]

not a bad idea

[Skatastrophy]

I'd prefer something closer to this

than this
