Here are the alternate uniforms Michigan will wear if it makes the postseason (not sure if they'll be worn in BTT): pic.twitter.com/Pakhw03yF0

At least it's not zubaz.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:41 AM ^
I was hoping we would make the NIT. Now I am hoping for a bonfire.
Those look like a bad Christmas present from Grandma, who thought she was getting you just what you wanted.

...probably a good thing he's no longer AD.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:58 AM ^
I didn't think it was possible for me to hate Dave Brandon any more than I already did, but here we are.
Those are awful. Only one man could pull off that look, and he's been dead for a long time.
February 26th, 2015 at 11:33 AM ^
I can't tell, but one of us--either you or me--has no idea what sarcasm feels like.

Why drag Brandon into this? Hackett is the AD now. If you have criticism, fire away at him. But what you're doing here is lazy and a really old bit.
February 26th, 2015 at 11:25 AM ^
those were stolen from cornell; with a few color changes.
February 26th, 2015 at 12:31 PM ^
At least these are hilarious-bad instead of just bad-bad.
February 26th, 2015 at 12:35 PM ^
use of hot air, of course, but they seem to maintain our basic look without violating any major principles of the universe. Caveat always that you have to see them ON people. . .
. . . and I would like to see them with black shoes. Sorry, I came up in the Fab Five era.

Are the shoes really going to be all white? That would seem very lazy of Adiddas to not give some color in e shoes.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:08 AM ^
they look like bad swimtrunks...
February 26th, 2015 at 10:49 AM ^
But sadly, true
February 26th, 2015 at 10:08 AM ^
For all the teams. Much like the awful zebra stripes uniforms from a couple years ago, we could see Michigan wear these in the BTT.

Michigan looks the worst of those.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:38 AM ^
They all look the same except for Indiana, who kept their classic look. I guess you can notify Adidas not to mess with tradition.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:37 AM ^
wide waistband stripe on the shorts? Looks like one of those "Which one of these does not belong?"
February 26th, 2015 at 11:26 AM ^
the top of maternity pants.
February 26th, 2015 at 11:56 AM ^
That the Texas A&M one looks like someone was wading into the water, then changed their minds as soon as the cold water....
February 26th, 2015 at 10:08 AM ^
Adidas, LOL.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:24 AM ^
Maybe we should decline the invite...
EDIT: The more I look at these the more I like the individual elements. Big block M is cool, wolverine logo is awesome, and the retro stripes are nice. If they would remove the color blocking and make the striping more cinsistent you have an awesome jersey.
In other words, I'm asking Adidas to show restraint, which we all know will never happen.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:10 AM ^
About these is the wolverine logo on the front (or back). Would love to see that more on the uniforms.
February 26th, 2015 at 11:53 AM ^
is also good. Get rid of the two-tone swim trunk style and it's a good look. That two-tone ruins it all.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:10 AM ^
I'm not crazy about the shorts.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:11 AM ^
I"m really tired of all this uniformz bs. I'm sure there are a few suckers who will always buy the new crap but I'm sure those people will always be buying Michigan gear anyway.
Get off my lawn!
February 26th, 2015 at 10:13 AM ^
Boo to two-toned shortzz. Boo.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:14 AM ^
I like the pin stripes more.

That single, asymmetric stripe on the bottom of the shorts is so bizarre.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:16 AM ^
These uniforms would be a punishment for not making the NCAA tourney

buy the kit?
February 26th, 2015 at 10:24 AM ^
He rushed to MDen right now to buy, that's why he hasn't posted.
On a random note, who is that in your profile picture? Is that a 1992 Final Four shirt with a player?
February 26th, 2015 at 11:10 AM ^
C-webb! In the summer of 1992, Chris Webber, along with Jalen Rose, Eric Riley and Jason Bossard came to my small town for a basketball camp. My uncle and my mom took me along, I was 4. They actually had an improv slam dunk contest with my uncle too. After the camp, my mom walked up to Cwebb and asked for a picture, and my mom said he couldn't have been nicer. I wish I had been older so I could've remembered it better.
February 26th, 2015 at 11:27 AM ^
I have nearly the identical picture of myself and C-webb, wearing the exact same shirt. Only I'm just a little older than you and standing to his right, and this was during the Final Four that year in Minnesota. Small world
February 26th, 2015 at 1:05 PM ^
The crazy thing is that they are the same age in that picture.
February 26th, 2015 at 11:41 AM ^
I bought the jersey earlier in the week.
We already knew about these uniforms last Sunday. Stuff was posted on them, too.
They're amazing.
February 26th, 2015 at 11:48 AM ^
Wait.....I didn't see the photo in the OP until now.
This can't be right. What about the pinstripes on MDen?
February 26th, 2015 at 10:22 AM ^
God dammit, Adidas. Get the fuck off my lawn.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:26 AM ^
Bad, bad, bad! Looks like swim trunks you'd find at walmart.
February 26th, 2015 at 11:39 AM ^
Ironic, considering your avatar, that you mention Walmart.
February 26th, 2015 at 1:00 PM ^
They have great Khakis but their ][v][ gear sucks!
February 26th, 2015 at 10:26 AM ^
How does anyone think that is a good idea
February 26th, 2015 at 10:27 AM ^
The best thing about the shorts is the Big M, I prefer that to the small M that is halfway up the leg
February 26th, 2015 at 10:49 AM ^
no way man, the best part is that they're using the student section wolverine w/ hat on the waistband.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:28 AM ^
look like they're sagging, gaurantee it. Stupid.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:35 AM ^
good point. That or a horrible blue-cumberbund maize-blue sandwich (or vice versa)
February 26th, 2015 at 10:29 AM ^
So Indiana is showing that it's possible to reject horrible Adidas ideas that interfere with classic looks. Hopefully the AD is paying attention when it comes to the next horrible football proposal.
February 26th, 2015 at 10:32 AM ^
You wonder how that convo must have went?
Adidas - Here is what we are thinking...
Indiana - That's dumb
Adidas - How about we remove the dumb stuff?
Indiana - Ok
February 26th, 2015 at 10:29 AM ^
Absolutely fucking terrible. Paid professional designers come up with this shit?

You know I guess it's because I have zero fucks to give but I don't mind them. I've grown accustomed to the adidas crap. To be honest with you I think they would be better if they'd switch the combination of tops and shorts.
