As a student the block is getting darn boring to wear. There's only so much apparel I can take with it on before it becomes too repetitive and, well, stale. If my wallet had a mouth it would reject most of the apparel sold save for a few.
I agree with the poster who said to keep the Flyin' Illini uni's as the main uniform and have whatever modern creation as the alternative. The Flyn' Illini fits the "classic" check mark and it appeals across generations, not just a particular set of people in that particular set of time. Check mark for thoughtfulness and intentionality . Sometimes brand consistency in its current form sucks.
And I slightly dislike the font currently being used by athletic department's effort to rebrand.
