I hope you weren’t counting my post in any sort of “angst” category, haha, because it wasn’t that.I need somebody to square the circle for me on the weird Nike angst when we currently - with Nike - have arguably the best set of uniforms in the country.
The rebrand effort didn't hit the mark, obviously. But we ended up where we wanted to end up.
A little more white trim north & south and that sucker starts to pop. It then breaks it up and looks less drab; IMO.I originally thought it might work, but after 2nd thoughts....
No way. Too much Okie State.

And shiny!If we get an '05 throwback set they should have to be baggy.
I still prefer the main 3 scripts but busting this out once a year wouldnt be terrible.

This is one I really don’t want to see. We have four excellent uniforms right now. The only three additions I’d like to see are:
1) A white Flying Illini set in 1989 colors
2) A navy script to match the 1970s version (orange script, white trim)
3) A special edition 2005 throwback in orange or white
I still prefer the main 3 scripts but busting this out once a year wouldnt be terrible.

I’ll keep it simple
1. all uniforms are orange , white or blue
2. authentic throwbacks allowed
3. script Illinois or Fighting Illini
that is all

Can you apply your talents to show us the actually missing Navy Script?? Orange with white trim and the inverse for the piping (same setup as the other two).I still prefer the main 3 scripts but busting this out once a year wouldnt be terrible.

Lol ya, the grey needs to be darker. Chat gpt didn't like making the grey darker so I got lazy. As I said, if they wanted to honor the Grey Ghost, it could be done once a year, but I would probably use the Navy Blues and just make the script and numbers grey.look like jammy-jams
To me, anything gray should only be in football (since Red Grange only played football, not basketball), and it should be used only in the case of a very special celebration game or anniversary… Stick to Orange and Blue and White, Illinois’ school colors…Lol ya, the grey needs to be darker.

Right with you. We have great colors and a wonderful set of templates, there’s really no need to mix things up unless it’s a true throwback like the 2005s.I’ll keep it simple

Yes, we make the jersey a darker grey, then we take that darker gray jersey and incinerate it, and then we sweep up the ashes and fire them out of a cannon into the middle of the ocean, and then we enter a blood pact to never talk about this again, and it's perfect.Lol ya, the grey needs to be darker.
