I think they look pretty good for throwbacks. I mean this goes back to the 20's.....they aren't supposed to look modern are they?

I would like to see them use these for one home game each year. Would be a nice tradition, and a great way to honor Trice.

6 years ago they started at $250. we got ours for $280


Hmm. Bowl games. Big wins. Record crowds. Sold out Jack Trice Club. Record season ticket sales. Improving economy. SEZ improvement looming. I see prices going higher this time and making the $280 look like a steal, especially for a Jack Trice era throwback.

I would buy a replica before a game worn(if they are truly replica jerseys and not just that crappy T) Then I would have the name and number st to trice's..... I think that would be much cooler..... and cheaper!

These jerseys are way better than our normal ones. Screw throwbacks. Let's make them our regular uniform.

Yeah, I feel like I would be surprised if they sold for less than $1000 now... maybe I'm overestimating, but we will see.

What makes the most sense is that we use these against Iowa every year. We then have our normal home/aways. Supplement those with a Oregon-esque uni with a storm cloud into a metallic cardinal/gold helmet. Those to be worn once on biggest national broadcast game. Supplement that with everyone's all white with white helmet to be worn against OU or OSU road game. Then everyone is happy.

If the ******** and moaning about the (NCAA REQUIRED) numbers on the front of the throwbacks is any indication, no one will ever be happy with anything.

Y'all are why we cant have nice things.

Wow. I'm actually extremely disappointed.

a) The white numbers ruin the whole uniform (I understand the rule- still sux)

b) The throwbacks should be worn against Texas so that Jack's story gets NATIONAL exposure. No one outside of the state cares about this rivalry.

:sad:

You don't like the white numbers? So you must not like the Earl Bruce era uniforms either.

I'm going to throw this out there and if people take issue so be it

These should NOT even be considered for our regular jerseys, and there is no way they should be used for the Iowa Game every year (why would we want to tie a jersey Trice wore to a rivalry he never played in)

These should be worn and used on a very irregular basis for huge games. If these are used every game they will lose the significance of how they are tied to Jack Trice and what that story means. It would be sad to take something so awesome and make it the mundane everyday jersey that ISU wears. These jerseys should be a tradition at Iowa State that is a tribute to a great man, that are a reason to tell the story any time they come out of the tunnel. Not just another jersey.
