The complaints of the last 10+ years have finally been answered - after every year people complain about the numbers being too small to read, it looks like Rutgers and Nike have finally listened - new jersey pics are dropping today and the numbers look giant!

Nothing was worse than our Power Rangers years. When the sun was out, or there was a glare, I had no idea who the hell was who.

Now go back to making "Rutgers" big again along with the white neck collar, put a red stipe ala Bama style on the pants and get the 06 cleats back and we're cooking

What has changed since last season's uniform shown below? Red and white, with the black outline to the numbers adding a touch of edge and visibility.

I like it.

One concern is Rutgers committed a material breach of its contract with Nike when #47 covered the Nike swoosh on his pants.

Rutgers must act to cure this breach within 30 days or Nike can terminate the contract. Rutgers has a rocky track record with apparel suppliers and should adhere to its Nike contract meticulously.

Doubt that's a breach. Those contracts extend to field of play in official competitions. Sure, this is an official release but...they aren't allowed to wear other brands, but they aren't obligated to make sure the swoosh is never not visible either.

We had a lacrosse player whose feet required special shoes. They had to petition Nike to wear them (NB made them bespoke) but only if the logo was taped over.

Dylan and Ace were sort of ahead of the curve but Rutgers contended our Adidas contract wasn't valid. There will be a player who will go to school and sponsored by another brand, and wear that brand in games. Flagg was a NB athlete at Duke but still wore Nike in games. Someone is going to challenge that. Surprised it hasn't happened already.

That is not a material breach of its contract, it's literally his shirt just covering it in his instagram post and not an official post from the team. I promise you no one cares that much with this case.

I'm like 90% sure these are the same exact uniforms as last year, but I'll ask around.
