some dude that owns an apparel store posted last week on BOL that we were one of the pro combat schools. Nike needs to leave our shite alone.

I would like to see Bama wear the old white helmets as part of the uniform.

This isn't going to go over well with most of the fanbase.

I could deal with that.. IF it was with the away uni's. Not with the home ones.

Houndstooth is what I am hearing, with red numbers on the side.

They are going to do something weird and very distinct with it. Bama fans shold just get ready. Go back and look at LSU's, Florida, and Ohio St. Not very much attention was paid to tradition. Some people will like it but some will think it is a decrepid piece of shite.

I'm sure as soon as it hits all the Bama boards, Nike will be inundated with thousands of calls and emails complaining.

Those of you hoping for a similar design scheme with your traditional jerseys are going to be in for an unpleasant surprise. Nike really pushes the envelope with their "futuristic" look and I don't see them letting up. Personally, I think they are an abomination.

the design will be slightly different than what we have now. personally, i couldn't care less what they do to our jerseys. it's just a uniform and will have no bearing on how we play.

I'm in my early 20s and it certainly isn't going over well with me.

Talk about chaos and disaster, that's what Nike's asking for by changing up our uni's.

If that's for an away game I could live with it. It's not THAT drastic of a change. If it's for a home game I don't like it. Jersey would need to be Crimson

that's partly why i don't think those are right. we will wear them for a home game.

and can we please quit trying to put houndstooth on our uniforms? it looks terrible.
