If we could ever use a win and bowl for moral, this is the year. I love the unis, but how can you have that bad an oversight? How did Adidas even let those go out like that.

While we're on the subject. I think the original brand for the Warhawks was quite excellent. I think the WWII angle is awesome. So that's why (aside from the pissed the pants look) I think it's cool. However, I'm simply amazed that ULM has largely ditched this great branding and logos (wasting all that money) in favor of something more nostalgic.

Your brand is your identity. Having two different brands is confusing.

Do ya'll revert back to nostalgia for your everyday unis?

The whole deal with the Warhawk was a tip of the hat to Claire Chennault and the Flying Tigers of WWII fame. The plane was the P40 Warhawk. The change of colors was to go back to the more original of our colors as we have gotten completely away from our colors. Also, it was a reach out to the holdout "I went to NLU" folks who are still pissed about the name change. Hence the ULM with the large L is more in line with the old NLU. Swearigen botched the name change (along with damn near killing the university) and the follow on administrations bounced all over with the hawk head. People (and players) have really liked the color scheme and the logo.

As far as the shorts go, I am not sure if we know that this particular part of shorts came out that way because of the roll of cloth it was cut from or if all the shorts are that way. But damn, it does look bad.
