I'm all for traditional jerseys, but these are dope! Plus, there's no escaping alternates nowadays, so it is something everyone has to accept.

Nothing wrong with these being shirts. I love this butt hurt era we're living in now. Some of you or most just love... Absolutely love to complain. Probably can't go a day without finding something to complain about. Yes, I'm complaining about the complainers! Ok, back to loving life!

Some of these people should or already do write in to Nike/Adidas and request certain things to be done. It's just apparel. As much as I absolutely love Michigan, my closet isn't 90, 70, 50, or even 10 percent Michigan stuff! I just don't really get the obsession over apparel.

Do these keep appearing because fans actually buy the alternates making it profitable for schools and the companies to keep churning out this crap?

Or is it that the companies have managed to build this crap into the contracts with schools so they can make more cash whether or not people actually buy the alternates?

Either way, these are an abomination to college football. College football and MLB seem to go neck-and-neck for the american leagues with the most tradition so Adidas, Nike, etc. can stop trying to fix something that wasn't broken

So, it looks like Adidas isn't the only company who doesn't understand contrast. Just like the outback bowl where our "maize" numbers were too similar to the white jerseys, good luck to these teams with dark numbers on black jerseys (Bama, UGA, etc.).

Dumb.

The season cannot get here soon enough.

I don't get why people get so worked up over uniforms. Lighten up, Francis.

I actually kinda like the way these look anyway...not that it matters because THESE HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH MICHIGAN.

We all wanted NIke (well, most of us anyway), we get NIke, and now we complain about what Nike is doing even when they haven't started their contract with us yet. Wtf.

So, there's absolutely no evidence that schools will wear jerseys that look like these.

The Tweet that Wolverine Devotee linked (but nefariously didn't mention in the OP) is some rando who claims "Source tells me..."
