I love them, think they look great. The one change I would make is keeping the white Block A on the helmets but I love the uniforms. Better than the "Miami" look IMO. The all-black home uniforms and all-white road are nice.

Luckily the 'A' is just a sticker so that could be an easy change. I too prefer the old 'A'

Not a fan of the all black Block-A. It needs to be white.

I didn't see anyone complaining about the baseball team's use of the block A on the uniforms and hats. It is all black with white trim.

Just now noticed that the new uniform tops are based on last year's alternate jerseys, they just swapped out the yosef logo with the A.

Quite a few voiced their displeasure with the outline A. Why toss out 25 years of developing a logo that is instantly recognizable then start making changes to it. The Athletic Department goes through this process to standardize the branding and less than 6 months starts deviating from the plan. Hard to figure.

I'm fine with the jerseys. Would maybe like a little more yellow on them but I like these fine. I DON'T like the black "A" logo. Wish they would have left that. Not a big fan of the matte helmet but can live with it. Honestly I like Nike gear, but not a big fan of most of their football uniforms.

I must be the only person that doesn't mind the newest rendition of the block A. Hell of a lot better than the flying Yosef head. Of course, I love the white block A, but I really like the newest version.

Crazy talk.

My girlfriend is an alum of an SEC school and she thinks Old School Yosef is awesome. In fact, anywhere I've been when I have gear on or a sticker with OSY I have peeps tell me what a sweet logo it is.

Same for the Block A. I got stopped a lot in New York City back in March while wearing my hoodie. App has some pretty good cred with both of 'em and I'm glad they're both in rotation.

Always will love old Yosef! I think a lot of folks do so we must turn the tide and pull it from use after 13/14.
I am not a fan of the black block A. Stick to the white one shows up better and looks better. Matt ok for a special game but gloss looks better. Unis?..... uhmm I don't know yet. New get up will probably be OK but didn't knock it out of the park at all.

You aren't the only one because I like the new rendition of the block A as well. I really like all of the new swag and if it helps with recruiting, all the better!

Awesome. Really looks great viewed in HD on the monitor.

You can actually see a white pinstripe in the new Block A. Looks sharp as hell, IMO.

I'm not real big on the matte finish but I don't really care. Just win.

I like them all. Helmets, unis, logos, etc. We're FBS now for all intent and purposes so it's time to nut up and act like it. I guarantee you RIGHT NOW that App goes 10-1, 8-0 in the SoCon this year. Aug 31 cannot get here soon enough.

Overall, I love the look, especially the matte black helmets. My only change would be to stay with the white "A" instead of the yellow gold/black "A"... On the other hand, I am sure I will quickly get used to it. 8-)

Yellow! Proof positive the younger alumni have no clue what our REAL colors are.

More proof some of these young yahoos have no respect for tradition and history! The latest incarnation of our mascot - it isn't Yosef - looks like a decrepit, white haired old man.
