how much of a press box expansion could they have bought with the $1k that these uniforms cost?

Somehow the fortunate  few who survived the spring flooding will still fill jack trice to watch those black uniforms lose 7 games a year.

Minimalism is hot right now and all, but those are the most nondescript black uniforms I've ever seen.

No one here hates isu as much as I do but those uniforms are great. You guys are forgetting how horrific their colors, font, and uniforms generally look. This is the same school who were happy when their uniforms were compared to McDonald's uniforms. This is an amazing improvement, I actually like them.

I always thought their throwback uniforms looked pretty good, and thought they should keep them around a little longer.

However, I think their best look was the USC-ish copy. Not sure why they didn't stick with this combo.

I don't get why they don't just change their colors to something less offensive to the eyeballs.

If that's the same thing as black is always better than mustard yellow and maroon argument I guess I'm a tuck then.

ISU uniforms: A history

Prob mid-80s, woof




Looking very Pitt Statey here in the late 80s early 90s (prob not as good as Pitt St tho).



Mid 90s, let's turn the cyclone into a bird!



Late 90s early 00s, let's keep the bird, but also update the color scheme/ numbers and stuff. These actually look decent for the era. Prob would be better with white numbers on the red unis tho






Mid 00s, let's be the Chiefs kinda. Yay Nike!





Late 00s to pretty much now, forget the Chiefs let's be USC!!





Unis stayed pretty much the same since, except some rando colors and white helmets sometimes.

AND NOW THIS!!!

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

TF was going on in that first pic w/players wearing different colored helmets?

And what were the dog bones on the collars halfway through supposed to be?

I would say ISU has done a better job creating uniforms than KU, and they have the worst colors, while KU has about the best you can ask for.

Those are mid 80s era.  They had All Big 8, All American players where yellow helmets while everyone else wore red.

Quote
Criner awarded players gold hemets if he thought that they deserved to be considered for the All-Big 8 team. Even the players disliked the idea as the guys with the odd helmets tended to be targets of taunts and extra hits during the games.
