Kids love the unis and hat matters . Old farts that won't get with the times hate it. Very simple.You must not have played sports. If kids don't like the uniforms, they will say it loud, they will say it often.
A bit overboard Cali, "the old uni's sucked, the old uni's sucked". How bout you like the new ones better. I have a hard time believing when you watched Brian Leonard play you were saying to yourself how awful the uniforms were.Old uniforms sucked beyond belief. Generic rush to make something different than the Shea error.
The new uniforms are way better and just went for a winning season in the B1G. Keep them...for now. Go to something else in a few years that aren't our old uniforms. They suck and are old.
Once again, the old uniforms sucked.
If you want to see the numbers, get better seats.
Kids love them??? Than why has recruiting declined since they got them?Kids love the unis and hat matters . Old farts that won't get with the times hate it. Very simple.
You don't make sense . The kids love them but no kid chooses a school because of the unis you knucklehead. Stupidest reply of the year.Kids love them??? Than why has recruiting declined since they got them?
The knuckleheads are those on here that do say the unis matter in recruiting. You haven't been paying attention!You don't make sense . The kids love them but no kid chooses a school because of the unis you knucklehead. Stupidest reply of the year.
They "have" to love them. You think it is in their best interests to say anything negative when money is changing hands?
There's a seven page lets go Mets thread, this is about uniforms. 80% of the board thinks are new unis suckThere's a reason baseball is dying and the old uniform people will never get it.
What a jerk off you are, spit directly in the face of the players and coaches who orchestrated the most important win in the history of our program. The next time you see Brian Leonard or Ray Rice, please remind them of the no-name school they beat that Thursday night on national TV.Cali nailed it in this thread.
The only reason that anyone thinks the Schiano uniforms were good was because the football beat a no-name school one night in 2006 while wearing them. There is nothing redeeming or inspiring about them.
This white bus guy is a real winner.Forget if you like the current unis or not but the biggest BS lines on this board are:
The player's love them. No they don't. They love wearing anything the school puts in front of them.
They help in recruiting. Ha. The biggest joke ever posted on here.
Battle scars are cool. No they are a joke to everyone who earned a real battle scar in college football.
Only old people hate them. The majority of lifetime RU fans that I know under 25 think the single color is awful except white on white.
The chrome helmet is great. Only for the basement caller dwellers who want RU to wear 12 different helmets in 12 games because they want a to collect them.
And the biggest lie on here is from those that Rutgers actually has a say in the matter. They signed that away for big $$
Salmon is the new Scarlet...lolTo those who long for a return to the red 2006 unis - Red is NOT our color. Scarlet, which is three parts red to one part orange, is our color. In 2008 the uniforms were properly changed from red to scarlet. The new uniforms are also scarlet, as they should be.
They only look salmon when the sun reflects off of them from a distance because of the material. The actual uniforms aren't salmon at all.Salmon is the new Scarlet...lol
Salmon is the new Scarlet...lol
How can you not love these uniforms?
Ours look pink at night, no sun.They only look salmon when the sun reflects off of them from a distance because of the material. The actual uniforms aren't salmon at all.
Sure - which is kind of the point. Whether the kids love them shouldnt be a consideration unless we really plan on going bold like Oregon (and really Oregon has staked out that ground. Maybe MD could do the same for Under Armour). Lets put it this way - did the kids ever complain about the old uniforms? When we inevitably move to something else, will it be because kids complained about these uniforms?You don't make sense . The kids love them but no kid chooses a school because of the unis you knucklehead. Stupidest reply of the year.
This....in 2006 we had REAL football uniforms. The spring game unis with those numbers and small lettering sucked. If they adjust the red and make the lettering/numbering more visible I'll be more tolerant since I like the white and black ones enough. Yeah, I'm an old guy, but what's it to you?Right. No history. Only the Empire State building was lit up for RUTGERS and the ENTIRE NATION TUNED IN
This is f*cking Rutgers football below. The Power Ranger uniforms will be associated with getting our asses kicked in the AAC and our start in the B1G.
Somebody with a vision and bravado like GS will bring them back, next time around.
Some of you are just ridiculous with your comments about going back to the old unis. When you make this statement each and every time I continually ask myself which unis are you talking about.
It is not like the schiano era unis were longstanding before the beginning of time. I remember when we used to have NJ on our helmets. If you look at some of the other national brands those traditional unis have lasted the almost their entire history so you cannot really compare any unis we have had to theirs at all. If you are discounting our history with unis then we should also remove the "birthplace of college football signs" as well.
We had an opportunity to make a change for a new era of RU football and so far so good under the flood watch. These uniforms have some flaws but we identify with them now. I always hear compliments from people I bring to the games.
Works for me. I like the top photo better because I prefer the larger RUTGERS lettering. The is all about aesthetics. Some of the NFL unis are good and classic to me--Packers, Giants, Raiders, Chiefs, Bears, Colts even the Cowboys whereas some of the newer ones--Titans, Cardinals, Broncos are kinda ugly. It's not about recruiting or what kids like or what Nike is willing to underwrite. It's just about what I like.So this is perfect for you old school guys?
Hell no! Those things are F-ugly!So this is perfect for you old school guys?
80% must be really old.There's a seven page lets go Mets thread, this is about uniforms. 80% of the board thinks are new unis suck
Oh is that why so many kids on The East Coast stay up to watch Shaq, Kobe and The Lakeshow for so many years?No I got more. Baseball eliminated an old tradition by moving the start times of games later, and lost their future fanbase in doing so. They took the current dollar and forfeited the future hundreds.
My point, which you missed, is that change doesn't always = progress.
He'll yes. I can read the numbers!!. I'd be happy with the Salmon jerseys if the had numbers you could read from 50 feet away.So this is perfect for you old school guys?
Maybe not perfect because I think those look better with white pants, but yes, that is absolutely an ideal football uniform.So this is perfect for you old school guys?

I can't think of anything more ridiculous than to say you don't care about being able to read numbers and names…I grew up in an era where we memorized every number of every player on our favorite teams.
My daughters meet players and establish favorites, and have no idea when they're on the field because there's no number or name to associate with.
"# 10 is the QB honey" "I can't see their numbers daddy"
I'll live with the new unis, but it's ludicrus for even the biggest fan of the new unis to not care if you can see names and numbers…absolutely ridiculous.
