Sea Turtle Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 Since we are apparently rebranding, we should: Bring back Hurryin'. It's got a cool runnin' rebels ring to it that I think recruits will like. Bring back the Bison mascot. We are like the only team that doesn't have a mascot. I think the kids in the stands would like it. New jerseys. Names on jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 I think our jerseys look fantastic but have no problem with names, if the players like it. As much as I like our jerseys, I would be happy with some alternate options the way the NFL does it. Maybe something with Hoosiers on the front and a more cutting edge style. Just my opinions.

Hoosier51 Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 With the guys they brought in there is no way they put the names on the jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogue3542 Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 I think a good way to do names on jerseys would be to have them on alternate jerseys that are worn for a few games per year, but leave them off the regular uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
13th&Jackson Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 Not a fan of putting names on jerseys yet, but I could do away with the warmup pants. At some point, some traditions just become embarrassingly hokey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCHoosier32 Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 good God. one of the only things i like about the hire is to bring back IU bball tradition and culture. so... let's not add names to jerseys or do special jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoyeCowbell Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 I don't mind the thought of names on jerseys. The jerseys themselves could use a refresh... the current design isn't balanced correctly, IMO. The piping on the shorts is waaay to thick and there isn't any on the top! Looks clunky. I like the idea of alternates. Script Indiana on the front as an example. And please, IU Sports Shop/Adidas: allow fans to buy more authentic, good gear. There is so much cool stuff that is not available to the public. That's a HUGE missed opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have felt that the candy stripe warmups have looked out of style for a long time, but I get that to some it's tradition. That's OK, I don't feel that strongly either way. By the way, I attended IU from 78-82 and was a fan before that, almost as long as the warmups have been around, but thanks for asking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm 39 and still hold them near to my heart, even though I have never owned a pair. They look good on the players and a few of the coeds. Imo. And back when Cody and co brought us out of the ashes, they were everywhere. They are and can still be multiple generational. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUJoe Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 I know names on the jerseys is controversial, but I don't know how you fully convince recruits IU is at the forefront of NIL while telling them their names can't be on their jerseys. And I'm one of the old guys saying that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IUALUM03 Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 These were from a guy on Twitter and I loved the design of them. A bit mixed on the black, but they were all based on uni's of the past for IU and our various logos. Gives an idea though on how you can pay respect to the past, while also modernizing our branding going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
