Syracuse freshman WR Jamal Custis tweets that he'll switch his number from 85 to 81. That would have been KJ Williams' number.

CUSTIS ! I'm wearing #81 but this is still

God the numbers are still so freaking long... God I hope they look better in full gear during the games.

Final nail in the KJ Williams to Cuse coffin?

I would say that KJ loses claim to a number if he doesn't show up on time. I wouldn't take this as any more of a sign that he isn't coming to SU.

Unfortunately I don't think they will...upset that those are the "standard" home tops..hoping we see lots of the alternate looks in the Dome.

They're not long, they're just lopsided.

They look sweet, can't wait to see them on the field with those helmets

Well I can read them unlike a certain basketball team of the white Jersey "platinum" number affliction. So I guess that's good news.

I'm hoping next year the Orange tops become our home jerseys those are my favorite of the new trio.

I love the look. The font used for the name on the back is niiicceee.

Ya I was about to say I thought that jersey looked great. I like these uniforms more and more. I just think the 4's look kind of weird.

 

[gocraz4dasu]

They actually look better than I had previously thought, and I liked them. I might even buy one.

If you guys didn't get to the "unveiling" at Destiny, you cant appreciate how awesome they do look in person. The white set up is really sweet. Grey is good. The blue jersey with Orange pants or vice versa when those arrive next year will be sweet.

I like the font for the name. I don't like how the top of the numbers are squished and the bottom stretched.

I wonder how decipherable the numbers will be from section 310.

Yeah - same feeling here. Mostly the 4 is the oddest of the bunch...

Absolutely LOVE the new jerseys! Yup, I do!

 

[TheCusian]

I'm thinking the strategy of the new uni's is very interesting. I'll tread carefully - but I think they have a distinct urban NYC look. The only other school I can think of that has a look like that, that plays in an urban culture kind of look, is Oregon. Maybe Okie State?

Football can be very traditional and very southern (think traditional southern church, then Alabama or Texas uni's). Our look is veering the other way. Shafer is always talking NE, blue collar city - much like our uni's. Should be interesting to see if they help recruiting with urban city, NJ, NYC, Philly kids.

They are growing on me - esp if they are apart of a marketing move to set ourselves apart from SEC brand southern church style...

Love how pumped the kid is just to have his name on his locker.

Pretty sure that's how I would be too. Can't wait for these guys to hit the field.

Next year. That's a joke.

 

[donniesyracuse]

My replica jersey from Dick's arrived today.

Why do you say that?
