Exactly like how the Jersey's are already, just a Green one to go with it.

The ugly thread pattern shows through too much with the green top. Maybe green bottoms.
 
The green helmets we're wearing against Ga. Tech on Thursday night will be released today on @adidasFballUS

So it's the offseason, I was bored and was watching all the games from last year on YouTube . The new uniforms may not be Nike but they make us look like a legit college football program again. I know uniforms have nothing to do with play on the field but the positive effects are psychological. I'm sorry but that "smoke" mess and green on green, orange on orange combos and half *** effort Nike uniforms from 2014 under Folden to the press and print youth football like numbers from 2015-16 adidas Miami's identity was a mess. We sucked on the field and didn't even look the part to be taken seriously. The legend of the U uniforms gave us our identity back and the timing was perfect. When the '18 class comes in and the IPF is complete after a 10-2 2017 campaign Miami will return among the elite, and they will do it in our iconic uniforms.

Nah, the 2014 Nike refresh were straight fire. Sorry dude, you're wrong on that one.

The green and smoke combos were impeccably stylish and shows why Nike's design team is the best in athletic apparel. The helmet game was dope as an alternate look as well. I like what we have going now minus the "technology" on the tops that limit us color-wise (shows through on the green too much). Richt and co had a lot to do with helping Adidas reverse the chotch they put on the look; they generally have no clue what they're doing from a design standpoint and push the futbōl stylings on football uniforms.

Nike was the originator in this and should still be with us.

I liked those uniforms as well!! I'm a old school thinker when it comes to playing the game and that sort BUT when it comes to the looks and fashion of the sport, I'm all for the up to date looks.. I really like what Adidas is doing with our Canes under CMR, because it is really giving Miami an identity and a look.. BUT I honestly think Nike, is killing it with the uni's!! Nike just knows how to spice it up, and they match all these different combo's with there jerseys and have them looking fresh!! I really like the smoke colored uni's, it's just our Canes didn't perform when they had to new look uni's on and I think that killed the vibe of Miami wearing alternative jersey's.. I think CMR would be good with alternative uni's, but they have to keep that old school look to them.. Because under him at UGa, I never seen them where alternative jersey's, it was always the regular look..

BUT Miami had some nice looks with Nike, it's just the winning percentage in those uni's SUCK SO ppl rather forget about it!!

I concur. Why fight tradition ! Keep the uniforms per the original - like you
I don't have to see those crazy uniforms that the previous AD was experimenting
with.

What about pants ?

Pants need to be hiked up. We look f'in ridiculous.

The pants are too long. Some of our guys looked like pee wee football players with the pants that are too big for them. They looked ridiculous, B.
 
The green jerseys look like a spiderman costume.

Maybe they could just get rid of that tire tread altogether for ***** sake.

The tire tread makes it look like our guys got run over. Not a good look, IMHO. What's wrong with a green fabric with no pattern on it?

Had a similar pattern a few years ago that adidas kept pushing on Texas A&M. It's just a jersey they really wanna sell to high schools.

rumor has it that Nike has that patented and thus why no U on the collar.

I agree, the tire tread is so ugly.

But if you look at the orange and white uniforms, they are there as well. I think its part of adidas' techfit technology that makes the design like that.
 
I don't mind if they want to go with a green alternate jersey once in a blue moon but really, I prefer the simple basics. The whole new uniform for every game stuff is tired and reeks of desperation. Does anyone give a flying fvck what sparkly uniform Oregon is wearing every week? Alabama's uniforms are so boring, they don't even have a logo on their helmets and 5 star kids are flocking to play there. Save the fashion show and keep it simple.
