Just my thoughts, but not digging the walking Cy on the shoulders. It's a bit too much.

This uniforms thread reminds me of the "walk out music" thread. A bunch of 40 year old white guys arguing about what is best for the program. When you should realize, neither of those things are for you. They are for the players and future recruits.
Do I like rap music? Nope. Do I like crazy colored shoes and jerseys? nope. But I'm not a player and Campbell still won't recruit me bc apparently great hands don't make up for a 5.1 40 time.
If the players dig black jerseys and get pumped up to rap music and if those things give recruits a "cooler" perception of ISU then I'm ok with ditching AC/DC and the yellow and red.

Who you calling white?

It's not a bad example when they also use the hell out of gray, which is NOT one of their school colors.

they actually have grey listed on their style guide as 'OSU SILVER' and incorporate it into a lot of their logos.

Request for the uniform mock-up designers: Use these white helmets w/ alt logos from CycloneUniforms, with cardinal jersey and gold pants (with whatever overall uni-package template you think suits it).

personally, i dont think it looks good with the helmet, jersey, and pants all being a different color, especially with the stark white and not having white incorporated anywhere else. white pants might be the only way to make this work at all.

Yeah, there's a reason the white helmets were rejected the first go-round:

The horror.

Agree, the tri-color doesn't work too well. It might need to have white numerals and a white pants stripe, not sure if that does the trick.

The road uni looks fairly sharp. Again a hurdle is the tie-in, slight tweak could help making numerals white, with stripe on helmet and pants gold. (so overall effect doesn't bleed out too much of the gold).

When this markup was released a decade ago I was opposed to white helmets because it looked awful - and white pants didn't come until later. When white pants was added to the rotation I opened up to the idea of white helmets. Now I like them - as long as they don't do something stupid like gold pants cardinal jersey white helmet.

I'd been wanting the all white combo for years, and was so glad to see it last fall. Unfortunately the game was an absolute turd.

Just throwing my two cents in here as well, but Josh Knipfel's picture on the main page shows him wearing a black cap with the cardinal and gold I-State logo. Black is certainly trending right now. Certainly could be a smoke-screen but I don't think that's the case.

I wouldn't read too deep into it...I've had a black Under Armour cap with the cardinal and gold I-State logo for about 3-4 year now...

recruits like new
powerhouses don't have alt uniforms
white and other non-traditional colors
gold vs yellow vs mustard
...but our original colors
49s or USC talk
walking cy logo
campbell likes black
look at toledo
if X school can do it so can we
nike contract
kids don't like under armor
so-and-so did cool mock-ups
trice strips


rinse and repeat

You forgot "I don't like this thread but I feel it needs my opinion anyway."
