Both played fantastic. What a tandem at slot!

Hardly any green in the overall look. Black, silver are not school colors. This new look by Under Armour captures the overall essence of the JJ era look, but still incorporates school colors.
Chow wanted to return back to the retro OG Rainbows that he remembered, during his youth. I get the retro vibes. There is a place for retro.

I recall reading something like kids today want "new" uniforms and not look like the last gen. Uniforms (sports - football) have become a fashion statement in the world of FB, IG, social media. What matters is how they look when they post their pics. Fashion and Sports goes together now. Back then, football players may not shave. They don't shave because they are not pretty boys. Now it's about styling that beard, and being on-point.

Imagine if UH uniforms were pink and yellow, no one would sign on, no matter the coach, system, or ranking.

But with a mean black uniform that show their friends, family, and the world, they are badass, kids would sign up.

To be honest, green was never mean, not even on Mean Joe Green. Steelers wear black.
Clemson wears orange. They get a lot of good recruits

Last year's dull matte helmet resembled the dull offense. Let's get back to 500+ yards passing and 40+ points. Heck bring back the introduction of the starting defense by BillyV
:wink:

I hope we use the black jerseys for the game vs Navy! With the run n shoot back and getting a quality win on the road last week, it sets the tone for the season that the Warriors are back (...and in black)!

Warriors representing the whole State of Hawaii. I think they should keep the Islands on there. :dubthum:
And I think it looks pretty darn good!

We're not a power5 team that plays for National Championships, big difference. We need all the little things to attract players. IMO

Love the all black jersey look. And the helmet with the islands and H are awesome.
