Basketball Uniforms

1) I think we should rock "FIGHTING ILLINI" on those orange ones, too, and leave only white as the "ILLINOIS" ones. JMO.

2) Will we ever get the blue "FIGHTING ILLINI" throwbacks?? Maybe we will save them for an NCAA Tournament game? :cool:

3) I am going to be oh so jazzed the day we finally feel it is time and that we are worthy enough to bust out the "2005 throwbacks," baby!

Decided to go back and check the records in each uniform so far this season.

White: 5-0
Orange: 5-1
Blue: 1-4
White Throwback: 3-2
Orange Throwback: 3-2

Moral of the story: don't wear blue.

Nice research, thanks! (And as for the blue: except in Madison!)

To echo my earlier post, I really hope we have a blue throwback to bust out in March!

When I asked the athletic department about availability of the throwback jerseys for sale, it was stated that it was a Nike call and not to expect them this year.
Am I hoping this means that if we keep up the string of success we can expect them in a year or two?

The Illini should never wear blue, honestly. Orange and White, only :)

Update since Feb 18: We won in our whites (Nebraska), orange throwbacks (@ Northwestern), and white throwbacks (Indiana). We lost in the blues (@Ohio State).

White: 6-0
Orange: 5-1
Blue: 1-5
White Throwback: 4-2
Orange Throwback: 4-2

Think we need to get #BurnTheBlues trending.

Maybe we found a way to overcome the blues curse to win at Wisconsin. #burntheblues
