I think they need a little more gold -- otherwise they look really nice.

The dark red and white threatens Oklahoma just a tad, for me.

I like the tornado side stripe. If the football team uses that as a basis for a redesign next year, provided it is classy and not overboard, it could turn out really well.

Does anyone want the basketball and football jerseys to go hand-in-hand with design details? I wouldn't mind it.

For those complaining about the narrow shoulders it’s about movement not looks. The wide shoulders with small armholes on a tight jersey can be restricting. Narrow shoulder straps completely frees the shoulders for unrestricted motion.

A college buddy of mine that’s a college assistant has made comments that players far prefer playing in their practice jerseys to game jerseys. He’s said for awhile game jerseys went the route of fashion and forgot about function.

I absolutely love these. I hope they can do something like this for the football uni's, I'll be impressed. Maybe they can somehow pay homage to Trice like they did Hilton.

Like these? (saved from an old thread by @amestoplease)

- Tornado on the helmet
- proper gold
- "Trice stripes" on the sleeves/pants
(sorry to de-rail BBall uni thread - but gotta promote these!!)

Nike needs to release the $40 replicas like they had back in the late 90’s early 2000’s again. I’ve got to have the Hilton Magic. Classic look, the wide shoulders look like HS girls uniforms so glad we got an upgrade.

I agree the shoulders are an improvement! I had gotten so used to the old ones, the contrast is striking. I think they will look better in action than Haliburton's photo. I'd have picked round neck vs the deep-V neck. Narrower shoulders seem to be a nationwide trend based on all the recent before/afters on uniwatch.

I think a gold piping stripe with the cardinal would have completed it - as UCLA does, and would be less like Oklahoma.

If they make them the same I vote they only wear helmets for the Iowa and WVU basketball games.

here's my obvious guess at what the cardinal version will look like.
