Nobody is suggesting that our uniforms are going to spur us to victory. This is about using our national exposure to show off something new. Getting blown out in all maroon would look just as bad.

It's just a uniform.

EDIT: I suppose I should say "nobody *should* be suggesting that our uniforms will make us better."

Also, I like them too lol

Yeah but you at least want to look good doing it. If these are real, they are, as many have said: "meh." On a funny note, it would be hilarious if VT equipment tweets a picture of white uni's. Happy friday everyone, gameday is tomorrow!

EDIT: and on the topic of everchanging uniforms...I want VT to get some nice modern ones, like the UNC ones I posted, and stick to them. I want winning to motivate the Hokies...not a pretty uniform.

I sense a Danny Coale thread coming on. I hear he's still open.

Edit: Spelling...cause I'm a moron

UNC procombat

here are unc's unis for the year, saw them last night. notice how tight the sleeves are and the difference in collar style. If those grey jersey's are for real--they seem very discombobulated. The stripes hint at 90's while the jersey hints at 80's. In the meantime the numbers are weird...nike is better than that.

At least they're not too much over the top, but otherwise, this is a bunch of "meh" to me.

I still don't see why we can't just wear our normal maroon jersey. My only guess is that we might see these again if/when they decide to use the pylons on the side of the helmet.

I'll probably like them a lot more once we #BEATBAMA in them though.

I may be the only one who disagrees. But As a fan they look cool, but we need to get back to the basics we should be playing Bama in our original jerseys. I feel like were trying to come out and look pretty. And that's not what makes the top teams in the Nation better. Sure, you look good, but it doesn't always translate to the field well either. I don't want to get blown out by Bama wearing new jerseys it just makes us look bad if we were to lose this game like we did against Stanford....Smh

This could be a mockup jersey, just one from Premiere/Nike to show what they look like and will be made with Flywire for the game.

This could have been taken months ago.

The more I look at that VT though...fuck.

I thought about that too. The entire collar doesn't work from the way it sits on the pads to the cartoon VT. The sleeves are strange too. Everything now is about lightweight, tight fitting, and aerodynamic.

I have to think that is photoshopped. Usually new nike jerseys fit extremely tight with that nice fly-wire collar.. This jersey is baggy, and the collar is way flimsy. Look at Tyrod in his pro-combats, the collar is so tight it doesn't fold over the shoulder pads. Also the pants are shiny--nike's new procombat super lightweight material doesn't have a shine to it--see FSU switching from shiny gold to flat gold pants.

I'm not sure why the pic won't show up, but yeah, it was the pic with the Corps of Cadets (E. Royal's sister?)

I'm down. Fuck it. We're wearing elephant grey to beat the best team in the nation.

Bring. It. On.

For me its tomorrow night I have to fucking work I wont be able to start #BEATBAMA on the DVR untill about 12:30 am after i get off work.

Wow. Different. I don't hate them, they aren't too over the top which, as Andy Bitter succinctly puts it:

Comment From Jeff
There are rumors of VT wearing a grey uniform on Sat. Any info?
12:35
No concrete info. I too have heard the rumors. VT likes to do a big unveiling of unis, it seems.

Honestly, I'd keep it simple vs. Alabama. If you wear fancy uniforms and get run off the field, it looks kind of bad.

Great Succes!
