Even though the thread's a few years old... I feel like I need to poke the elephant in the room in the balls with a big stick: I can NEVER watch college sports for the simple reason of the money spent on this uni and marketing (for all teams considered competitive in the collegiate world) and alllllll the freakin' cash that GOES BACK to Nike and the school....
...BUT NEVER the players. They wear the garb and put on the performance that brings in all the money and fans... ... but get squat in return (and don't try and tell me that a 'free' education is payment enough... not even close to the Millions upon Millions they make their sponsors and School). Pay these kids already.
- don't understand adult fans of college sports. you're out of college already, get over it.robotron3k
- and even weirder, adult fans of high school football... men cheering boys. meh...robotron3k
- This has nothing to do with being a fan. Do you just give away your talent so others can keep the profit from what comes of it?PonyBoy
- think of the exposure tho!prophetone

- GO DUCKS!wagshaft
- so a free education, clothes, meals, all the vagina you want isn't enough for an 17-22 YO? You pretty much get jobs handed to you after you are done with football if you don't go prorodzilla
- fi you don't go pro....if I have an idea while employed somewhere i don't make any more money if my place of employment does...rodzilla
- any idea that makes the company more money...rodzilla
- you basically just said you'd work for free w/the exception of 'neat stuff' and the hope of a good jobPonyBoy
- ... while someone makes millions off your talentPonyBoy
- not really - i expect my salary that is agreed upon. in this case - its a free education, which is worth 20K-30Krodzilla

as a designer I should be glad that they're exploring new exciting designs and employing creative people to do so but as a sports fan I wish they would just stick with 2 jerseys (home and away) instead of 400 different choices. Also please do not use the same color for the name on the back as the jersey ( I think they used white on white a few games ago) so only the hard core fans can identify the player by number only.
P.S. Please repaint the basketball court back to it's original color. It's distracting as fuck to watch.- that's also an awesome court, love it! I give Phil Knight credit, he might be a sweatshopper, but hey...panacea
- fooler, you gotta understand, the Ducks are used to playing on it. easy for them. opposition can't focus. WIN = DUCKSpanacea

Since Phil Knight is an Oregon Alumnus, they get special attention from Nike.

wow...
Don't know about college football, for a second there I thought it was a new team in NFL.I think the pic with the metal, shiny, silvery, dark wings is a bit over the top.

Just to get a grasp on the thread, it is about football jerseys, there are allusions to hockey, but people are complaining about the basketball court?

looks pretty badass in the pics. probably god awful in normal lighting, like all the other uniforms.
the wings in that one pic need to be real

he he, it's true, all of their uni's are bad ass, but again, there's a reason for it.
He's not some angel.
"In 2009-2010 Knight was the largest single-person contributor to the campaign to defeat Oregon Ballot Measures 66 and 67, which once passed increased income tax on some corporations and on high-income individuals."
