2019 College Football Hall of Fame Profile: Vince Young - National Football  Foundation

It's lame to copy Alabama, and they also have numbers on the helmet to make identifying players from the side easier.  The numbers on top of the shoulder last year were too busy and no numbers at all is too plain. Number on the side like during the VY era was best.

At least they lost the horn logo on the bottom of the neck which was awful.

Looks like Nike raised the stripes on the sleeves and now there's no room for TV numbers. I don't see how you can say we're copying Bama with this look.

Wait, we got rid of the Longhorn logo and there's not a celebration thread? These look great. Put in real turf, ditch the carnival, and we'll be a 10-win team again.

First thing Spurrier did at UF was rip out the rug and put down real grass.  Substantial success soon followed.  Does any player prefer the best artificial turf to real grass?  I’ve never heard or read one say this.  What’s the “carnival?”  Chaps babes are real assssets though!

That fucking triangle Nike uses is dumb as shit on the collar.

The triangle is a mesh fabric that's supposed to improve ventilation and breathability.

Stitching a longhorn noggin on it was even dumber.

Bruins settle with UA for $67 mil

Quote

A six-year saga that started with smiles and handshakes ended with a sterile settlement document, Under Armour agreeing to pay UCLA $67.491 million to resolve the school’s lawsuit against the sports apparel giant, according to a document reviewed by The Times.

The settlement that was reached in late May ended a fractious dispute that started more than two years ago when Under Armour attempted to unilaterally terminate its record 15-year, $280-million contract with UCLA, prompting the university to sue the company for breaching its agreement. UCLA initially sought more than $200 million in damages as part of the lawsuit that the school on Thursday requested to be dismissed from Los Angeles Superior Court.

The squabbling escalated last fall when Under Armour filed a countersuit, alleging that UCLA was being vindictive when it covered the company logo with social justice patches on the jerseys of football, baseball, men’s basketball and women’s basketball players. That allegation has also been dropped as part of the settlement.

 

The settlement, which includes a mutual non-disparagement agreement, has been approved by the Board of Regents of the University of California, according to one person familiar with the developments.

UCLA can use its windfall to help offset the $102.8-million debt facing its athletic department that was caused in part by the loss of the Under Armour deal. In December 2020, the school agreed with Nike and Jordan Brand on a six-year, $46.45-million deal to outfit its teams with their respective brands.

“UCLA is one of the most recognized and respected collegiate names around the globe,” Mary Osako, UCLA vice chancellor for strategic communications, said in a statement released after the settlement. “We are gratified to have resolved this matter in a way that benefits our student-athletes and the entire Bruin community.”

At the time it terminated its deal with UCLA in June 2020, Under Armour contended it was allowed to do so because the school had failed to fulfill its obligations on several fronts — by failing to provide marketing benefits during the stoppage of sports caused by the COVID-19 pandemic; by failing to field its baseball team for more than half its games during the 2020 season; and by shaming the company and itself through the resignation of men’s soccer coach Jorge Salcedo after his involvement in the college sports admissions scandal.

Under Armour later tried — and failed — to have UCLA’s lawsuit dismissed before the sides agreed to the settlement. In previous court documents, Under Armour said it provided UCLA with more than $65 million in cash and products in the three years before it informed the school that it was dissolving the agreement.

The Notre Dame uniforms are terrible.  ND shouldn’t do any alternates except maybe a green jersey now and then. Most alternate uniforms end up being terrible except when the alternate is a throwback to what the uniform should be. All these excess uniforms are like Barbie dolls for sports guys.
