When were Xavier's colors Blue and Gold. Or is this something the Athletic Dept thought up for the 100th anniversary ? I've been observing Xavier BBall since '68, and the colors have always been blue and white. And if it's a 100th anniversary item, why weren't they used more during the season instead of the Running Man unis ?

The wife mentioned this yesterday and I didn't believe it.

Maybe someone is thinking - "Hey. What could possibly go wrong?"

If they win, the new unis may be good as gold.

These uniforms suck.
Mario has always been the Voice of Reason. These rags are an abomination.
The whole Athletic Department has gone off the rails.
The only time there was ever a gold/yellow tint was in the mid 70’s as an accent color. Nothing like this.
And those teams abjectly sucked under Taylor Baker.
So. No.

I don’t really get worked up over the uniforms.

If we can pull out a win, they can play naked for all I care.

Getting a lot of “get off my lawn” vibes in this thread. If they players like them, then I am for it. If we win today, then we should only wear these jerseys the rest of the year.

I don't think it's so much "get off my lawn', as it is "Where did they come up with the color scheme ?"

Smells of desperation and maybe redirection away from crappy coaching.

I think you are underestimating the lead time on making a jersey.

Those uniforms were terrible. We looked like Morehead St. And weird decision to wear them on senior night.

Apparently there was a 3 year period where we wore these in the 70's?

Of all the uniforms for X, I despise the running man. It looked awful in 1980's and early '90's. A bad cartoon character with no dimension.

Allegedly, in the 1970's, teams wanted to look like UCLA and added fonts like UCLA..

I'm not a huge running man fan, mainly because of the shades of blue. As for the blue and yellow jobs, I say we wear them until we lose in them. The players may think those unis have mystical powers.

Oh man, I love the blue shades, the powder blue accents are so... crisp. I'm not sure about this yellow ordeal, I had a lot of friends from home in WV say they loved em... which makes complete sense lmfao.

Only for the memes it brought, tracksuit hungover Huggs is WV's favorite Huggs, more relatable I guess.
