Mark Richt has joked about posting death threats on Georgia Bulldogs players who leak photos of the team's 2011 Nike Pro Combat uniforms, and multiple players clearly got the message loud and clear. AD Greg McGarity says the one-time redesign will be made public on August 20, while also downplaying concerns that UGA's G logo will be altered or moved.
His Boise State counterpart, Gene Blaymaier, said, "Our selection last year to wear the state-of-the-art uniforms against Virginia Tech created a lot of excitement for that game and we know this will do the same for our game against Georgia." Not sure when Boise State's will be revealed.
I don't know where athletic directors get the idea that these uniforms create excitement, since most fans groan with dread at the news that their team has been put in Nike's sights. I think it's great myself, but these things just make the average football fan nervous.
