When you realize you need to change your uniforms and logo? Why can't we get this done? www.post-gazette.com/pg/05105/488599.stmI was going to post this in Drums' thread, but I thought my item unworthy.

Well it looks like we will finally be going back to dark blue and gray next year, Thank God!
I've seen a drawing for the dark blue road uni and although I only got a quick glance I was so relieved to see dark blue with gray letters and numbers. I just hope we also use gray home unis with dark blue letters and numbers, not white unis.
They better follow through on this and honestly they should have a press release with the designs like Pitt has done. We need to communicate better with the public and release news like this for the loyal fans who follow the program

I was in the Yates pro shop and the manager happened to be there so I went up to her to complain about the fact that they didnt have any dark blue facepaint left, they had tons of that hideous light blue in facepaint.
That somehow carried over to a discussion of the use of that color in general and she mentioned the new uni's they would be ordering for next year. She had an ordering catalog from Nike and she showed me a little drawing of the design of the dark blue unis. I only got a quick glance, but they looked cool.

i agree -- our athletic department should issue a release about our uniforms when they are ready, its good publicity.

it seems that the hoyas are going through the same problems that many major universities are currently having. Kansas is working on coming up with a clear symbol for the university. (they have about 10 different versions) they also just released the official shade of blue for the university. it will force the football team to have lighter blue jerseys. consistancy is the key and that is something that needs to be addressed here. i think some of them happen just because of apparel providers, Pitt switched to adidas recently and Kansas will use adidas starting June 30.

After all these years, Nike still won't commit to a university-wide sponsorship and as such every team is on its own uniform-wise.

Any word of Georgetown ever negotiating with Adidas or another company for a contract that covers all sports?
How much longer is Basketball under contract with Nike?

With JT on the board (or at least he was), it'll be a good long while before we dump Nike.

We just became a member of Team Jordan as well, I can't see us breaking away from Nike in this lifetime.
