But seriously, those jerseys are AMAZING!
I like the whites too!! Though the orange ones are my favorites.Add the blues and wear them exclusively!
Put those on white and blue next year too. Rebranded I on the shorts and it's all good leave the rebrand front to the media guide.

Is there any reason to NOT do this? I don't see how anyone could think they could choose better Illini jerseys than these.
Do we have a limit on how many times we can wear orange?
You can have brand consistency and still have the 89 uniforms as the current set. All using the updated block I. All the same shade of orange and navy (sad that wasn'tthe case before) use the font on the baseline, and all publications.Brand consistency and the possibility that maybe, just maybe, we could have our cake and eat it too, working in the current branding to that style.
But these throwbacks are very good and work perfectly well in modern times.
We really need to do something to spice up that Block I or just do away with it. It looks so weak and amateur and boring. I get using a Block I for some things and I understand it's usefulness but it consistently looks drab and cartoonish on everything. It needs some major tweaking or some design alternative in its spot.
