bhs7695 185 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 On 09-01-10, Nike will unveil their new 2010 Pro Combat uniforms special jerseys to be worn for at least one game this season. Ten schools have been chosen and they are: Alabama, Virginia Tech, West Virginia, Boise State, Oregon State, Florida, Miami (FL), Ohio State, TCU, & Pittsburgh. I understand WVU's is supposed to Coal themed Virginia Tech's appear to be black and the helmet is supposed to be black as well with maroon stripes and orange "VT"s on the sides.

rhsfan88 22 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 The fact that picture shows a player with the jersey already and this being the biggest game with largest viewer audience of the year, leads me to think that the Hokies will be wearing them next Monday night againist BSU. Anyone confirm or deny?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone confirm or deny?? This has been my thought for a few weeks with the game being the showcase game it's going to be. Who knows though...

vthokies4life 10 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Apparently The U had the inside information. Here's a quick rundown on what all the jerseys will look like, and the meaning behind each of them: http://hurricanesports.cstv.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/083110aaa.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lance 228 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 i like the old school jerseys that were mesh with big holes and had the numbers screened on to them and not even sewn...nameplate on the back optional. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rhsfan88 22 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Looks like Boise will also be wearing their Nike Pro Combats for this game as well according to some of their bloggers on Twitter. Old school jersey purists heads may explode while attempting to watch this game. http://twitpic.com/2k4ze2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least they sort of stayed within the realm of Boise's "school colors." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vthokies4life 10 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 They look great. I just watched the whole nike presentation on it (don't judge me). They are drawing inspiration from the old Gray and Black that Tech used to wear, while also stressing the phrase "Ut Prosim" heavily. And that design in the numbers reminds us that we are, in fact, a Polytechnic Institute and what that looks like in the 21st century. The numbers represent a motherboard with a VT twist included in it. So all you jersey purists, I recommend you take it easy for one game and see these jerseys for what they are: a chance to look cool, have fun, (and make a lot of money). BTW, the best jerseys of this Nike Pro Combat Series goes to WVU. Simple and meaningful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beaverbaseball 10 Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 I'm dissapointed in all 10 team jerseys...Thought they could have done a much more unique job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhs7695 185 Author Report Share Posted September 1, 2010 Ha! Well, you won't ever have to see them again after Monday... You might see them again. Remember, the white jerseys from last year were only supposed to be for the Maryland game. The players liked them so much they wanted to wear them for the UVA game as well and did!
