Just watched it... Yikes. Looks like a high school video club put it together. Didn't fire me up at all about this big news.

Honestly, with this roll out and what I've seen so far... I have a really bad feeling about this all of a sudden.

Really? I couldn't be more excited about Under Armour.

I would be shocked if the football team isn't in all black next year at home unless there's a white out.

Man this changes everything!

Who needs a new conference? Who needs a New Shoe?

Not us, we have new unis.

Agreed

Also, if football were to do white for home, then would we wear black away and force all of our oppnents to wear their aways in their own stadiums... doesnt add up for football, im guessing itll be the exception to the whites at home rule.

If that was the case then we would be almost exclusively white all the time. No one wants to see that. Black at home, white on the road, red alternate for football. No more dozens of helmet designs throughout the year, just keep it relatively simple.

That is a really odd response to a deal that more than doubles UC's compensation...

Is that true? Jesus. This staff has had a hard on for white unis since they got here. Dumb, dumb, dumb...

Call me a traditionalist. Our home jersey should be black with black helmets baring something special.

Going to be really awkward in those black outs and red outs if UC is in white. I hoping there's a little flexibility there from UA's side.

If we're wearing white homes for football, we'd be one of like 3 teams in NCAA to regularly do so, and white isn't one of our colors like the few others. I highly doubt that's correct, even given the document.

I appreciate the financial side of it. Heck, I even love the apparel side of it. From what I've seen so far, their gear is really nice and I'll be buying it up.

However, the uniform preview in the form of the branding architecture document was disappointing. I'm not really feeling the stripe with the triangles. I mean, that's the best they could come up with? UC has been around for nearly two centuries and they pick a feature from a building that was built very recently? That script Juncta Juvant looks stupid. It does.

And I personally hate the white uniforms. I can tolerate the black pants, black helmet, white jersey for away games, but hate the all white.

My response was referring to our new uniforms, not the deal itself.

The line about the home whites apply to all sports EXCEPT football, which is nothing new.

Only LSU wears whites the majority of the time at home for football. I think GaTech did for a spell but don't any longer.

Move along, nothing to worry about here

Was the sound screwed up for anybody else or was just me? Torture to get through the whole thing.

The Juncta Juvant is amazing! You need to get an eye for style

Exactly. As someone else pointed out, football is a different case.

I'm more excited about the triangle element.

Here's a link to the contract:

these are going to be sharp....oh, and we are getting $5mil/year. They look even sharper when you factor that little nugget into the equation.

I like that Under Armour has to hire two interns from UC each contract year. What a cool experience!

UC is on Under Armour's campus today... Follow along on Instagram

Anyone else really looking forward to how the uni's will look this year? I cant freaking wait to see them, wish we had a timeline...
