Whether you like all the uniforms or not, I believe they catch recruits attention

Kentucky has 18 combinations of their 2012 football uniforms. The new uniforms are made by Nike and the Wildcats announced them with these photos on their facebook page. Check it out...

Some of those actually look really good. Simple yet also have some "hipness" in them. I want us to put orange on our shoulders for the away uniform.

I still love the retro uniforms we used for UNLV '04. They looked good and they actually honored our past rather than being a trendy thing. We should bring those back on occassion.

They don't catch recruits attention as much as "9-4 (5-3) and #19 in the nation" would.

It's sad that the Wildcats will look their best on facebook and not on the field,

I want to beat these jokers by 35 this year. Actually, wins over Kensucky and vandy by a combined 70 is what I am looking for.
Book it.

Don't really get the the black pants with the tops and helmets that don't have black - the others are sharp though. That said, if any recruit is going to pick a school based on a flamboyant uniform...they'll pick Oregon or Maryland. My personal opinion is while I do enjoy traditional colors and uniforms I have no problem with one game a year throwing in an energizer for the athletes if that's what they want. After all, they are the ones busting arse and giving all for our/their program.

What's the deal with the checkerboard pattern on the shoulders? Is UK trying to steal UTs mojo?

Did the same last year and took some from the local media over it. Surprised they're back.

Black and Blue, just what they will be after our Vols get finished with them on November 24th.

The uniforms look great. But they are still Kentucky. Recruits will say " Damn, those guys are getting the bejusus kicked out of them, but man they are doing it in style..."

Anyone else think of Boise State when they saw the all-blue kits?
