Are the Steelers-wannabe uniforms a certainty for today?
- Thread starter PITTsburghFAN
- Start date
If the players feel comfortable and win the game, then that is the only thing that matters.
You concentrate on the color of the unis. I’ll concentrate on the actual game. These kids like the unis and want to wear them. Case closed.
I don't care for them... and would love to see Pitt in the blue uni's assuming Xavier will be in white as higher ranked team. But if the blacks bring the W's... rock on.
This is another example of poor leadership at the top. When you allow your program colors to be abandoned for superstition, you are in for trouble. Not good
They had to wear them today or else the nice blue unis would be blamed for the loss. after this the Steelers looking unis should be burned.
The uniforms have nothing to do with wins and losses and the kids will be fine playing in the regular uniforms. Pitt spent way too long getting the colors back to go away from them so quickly. My thoughts on uniforms is I should be able to turn a game on and know instantly who is playing without looking at the score bug.
Yeah I think these need to go away. Fine for a game here and there but they aren’t our identity. And it makes us look like we’re trying to be like the local pro teams.
Not a big deal really but slightly irksome
Agreed. That was the problem with the previous football and basketball unis. Could have been a number of different teams playing. Now we know instantly what teams it is (unless they wear something else like black unis).
I prefer the traditional Pitt script, but you never mess with the mojo of a winning streak. Now we can bury them or at least put Pitt on the front and use it once a year.
I'm ok with the black unis, but would prefer either the Panther head or script Pitt on the front
You want people to recognize your school immediately. Script Pitt would do that right away. The P by itself simply doesn’t work.
The Panther logo looks great on the black background. But yes, Script Pitt is the best
I didn’t care about this fad while winning, but now that it’s over, make it over forever
If the players like it then that’s all that matters.
This is a serious HCJC flaw. He seems more focused of these types of issues. This program needs a staff that puts basketball first and instills winning over superstition. I’m still not sold on Capel even though they had a great season. Next year will tell the tale and determine the fate of Coach Capel.
Well, I disagree. The school has official colors and brand/logo, these were chosen and designed for a reason, and that’s what the players should wear. All other things being equal about the material, fit, etc.
The black uniforms are quaint for a regular season special event game but that’s it.
Way too much is made about the players liking it. The players wouldn't even notice the difference if Pitt only had home and away uniforms.
See…that’s where you’re wrong. How do you think all these alternate/third uniforms came from? Young people like different looks - Oregon made it a recruitment tool before the rest of college athletics figured it out.
No thank you but I will ask, what is your logic behind the move? ( changing the name to Pittsburgh instead of Pitt did nothing but turn off the real followers)
It's a troll take that even he doesn't agree with he's just bored starting nonsense. Don't bite. He's does this sometimes when he's bored... Stir it up to create a flood of posts. He knows no Pitt fans agrees with this... None.

never said that, but I am wondering why you want to go to black and gold? Pitt fans I know like blue and gold.
If you think that Jeff Capel or any of the other coaches spent more than five seconds total thinking about which uniforms we should wear, and that not only that, but however many seconds they did think about it (if any at all) took his focus away from where it needed to be then the problem isn't with the coaches, or the color of the uniforms. It's with people trying to manufacture controversy to fit an agenda.
If five 5-star players commit to us and cite the Iowa uniforms we wore this week, then I’ll concede it was right to do it.
So all we have to do now is wait for that.
That's because most coaches aren't going to be with the program 10-20 years down the road, so establishing and maintaining a brand is less important to them. Same with the players. And same with any AD who wants a quick change. In college sports however, the caretakers must be able to override the Steve Pederson's of the world from coming in and mucking things up.
You‘re off base and missIng the point - it’s about choices…not standard garb.
