There has been no confirmation from the University at all on uniforms.  KU's contract with Adidas is up this year so there will have to be new negotiations before anything jersey related is decided.

@AndyJ0seph God I hope you are wrong. Can you confirm an extension with adidas then? Contract expires in July.

@DirkDiddy Can't confirm that, but there's zero smoke that Nike is interested.

Apparently an associate AD at KU said that no decision has been made on the uniforms yet.  He confirmed that these uniforms pictured are real though.  What I took from it was there are several different versions being floated around no decision is made.

Guys, Starter used to be super popular when I was a young pup.  I haven't heard much from them lately, but I know a large amt of KU'ers that still have those Starter Chiefs jackets.  Could be a good match.

GCJ, what do you say?

This is a great idea. I wore a Starter jacket to school in Middle School and it was bad ass.

Starter was definitley badass for quite some time, a market leader in fact, then fell far behind companies like Nike and Adidas. Don't know how Starter lost its significant market share.  :dunno:

Obvs he does.  I mean, they have been wearing shitty brand for 5 yrs now.

Tradition is built by sticking to something.  You don't get it simply by signing a super elite brand with a super elite contract for super elite unis.

Sheahon must know they have serious money problems.  Only reason they would cast aside the traditional uniforms would be to solve money problems.

Honestly, I don't hate those unis. Not saying it wouldn't suck to be a Russell school but GT's stuff looks better than most of the stuff adidas has out out lately.

Yeah, a match between Starter and KU would be ideal for both sides. KU has a strong enough brand to at least get Starter out of the gutter and into the homeless shelter, and Starter would have to try really hard to sabotage their own product to actually be worse than Adidas.

Anyone notice the old jersey McGruder was wearing for the 3pt contest the other night? I think the white ones were my fav, but we only wore those style for like a year before they made the most recent transition Jake's last season.

It was longer than a year. They switched around halfway through big 12 play during The Beas year.

I bet it was really close, though.

Also, that is a pretty fishy comment.
