I'd be curious to know the deal we got from adidas (3years at $X/year) as opposed to what Nike and UA offered. Anybody know that information?

[QUOTE Now lets move the Platoon next to the band....[/QUOTE]

I thought that this was announced earlier, but at the meet and greet, Brad said that the season ticketholders next to the band were being relocated as that section will be for students. Seemed to indicate that rather having them in the upper reaches at the other end of the court, those students could get closer to the court and be next to the visitors bench. Hence the Patriot Platoon will be "lower bowl" at both ends of the court with some being next to the band. Of course this only works if there are enough students that show up!

Even notice last year many of the students had bright green shirts? Bright colors are "cool" with the kids today.

I think bright colors are cool if there's not too much "extra" stuff on there. But I'm also a fan of really simple unis too. Just bold text, no extra piping or shadows. Another home uniform idea. Again, keeping it simple. Just a couple subtle gold bits on this one:

I am not a fan of some of the Adidas templates, but kudos to our AD for getting a deal done. This was long overdue and something I've been hating on for years. If Edwards keeps this up, I'm not going to have much else off-the-court/field to complain about. Now lets move the Platoon next to the band....

If you were at the event Wednesday night....

....it was mentioned that students would be taking over the section next to the band.....season ticket holders getting bounced.

Brad Edwards also noted that the move would put the students closer to the visitors bench. Also, speaking of names, Coach Paulsen said he wanted players to play for the name on the front of the uniform and not for the name on the back. I guess that means we'll have player names on the unis this year!

Wouldn't his comment imply we won't have players' names on the back?

How can you play for the name on the back if the name is not on the back?

Exactly. :cool:

Seriously, I like having the names on the back and hope Paulsen switches it back. I get the whole "play for the name on the front" argument, but it's also about making the experience easier for casual fans who don't know our players. Hell, I'm not a casual fan, and I don't think I'll know half of our roster next year. haha

The names on jersey thing is something I pay little attention to. When is the last time Mason had names on the back of jerseys?

I think Paulsen will get this team playing much improved ball regardless.
