Under Armour

Chris Ronca @ChrisRonca
St. John's University will leave Nike and become an Under Armor school on June 1st. #STJBB #STJLAX #STJBASE #STJWBB

We knew it was coming.  I guess it's official.  I'm interested to see what we will look like after this.

Who is Chris Ronca and is his info reliable?

So our uniforms this year will be new?

I think they give the guys new uniforms every year.

Think he was asking about design. And yes I think we will have different jerseys if we are in fact switching to under armour. I jus hope their not too crazy.

I hope they are not black, or it could be a long season

Am i the only person who likes the black ones?

He's correct.

Yes

I was lookin forward to seeing those grey uni's again. Hope they have some great ideas for us. I believe we will begin to get alot of media attention in the coming years.

I really liked those unis too...they were sweet.  I don't think I like this switch away from Nike.  Under Armour does have some nice stuff, though. I wonder how it will affect basketball recruiting because of camps and AAU circuits. 

Very happy about this. I'm sure they'll make nice jerseys for us, but I'm more excited to actually see some new t-shirts and things like that for the fans, since we barely got anything new under Nike.

If we win next year we'll be getting a lot of attention.  New unis, new league, on a new network etc. 

And for what it's worth I used to be somewhat of a traditionalist when it came to jerseys.   Now, I don't care.  Red, black, gray, whatever..   If the kids like it that's all that matters really. 

  Personally, I couldn't care less about the uniforms..who makes them, etc.... Just win some games in March...

Looking at the other schools that UA sponsors, we're definitely one of, if not the most high profile school they have. Should get a lot of promotion from them. Wonder if anyone else will be joining St. John's this offseason.

I understand the business side of this move. I get it. But from a HS kid perspective this sucks. Nike is King in basketball.  Our guys were proud of their Nikes and would consistently posts pictures of their Kobe Nike kicks. Hope UA markets the hell out of our apparel.

I didn't think I even needed the Smiley so to say I forgot it would be a lie.

They grey Maryland jerseys are sick.  BC is actually a lot more tame that I would expect from UA.
