EC does look so much different from when I first saw him at the open practice.

I love these unis...I just want them to bring the dark blue ones back.

Also when are they going to sell the actual jerseys? I'd buy the shit outta them.

What's to love? Look like the old ones.
Look at the picture of Hare. Where's the difference?
I'd like to see the navy blue uniforms, too.
Story.... one year (1979)someone stole the URI home uniforms.
They spent the entire rest of the season in road uniforms.
Guess they were too poor to get a new home set.

Yeah, I just posted them because they're actual players in actual uniforms. And the season starts today.

Also, new pictures up on the official roster. Finally, EC, Hassan, and Matt now have faces (and not Rams heads) in their profiles!

It's working now, momentary glitch. TJ is the only one without an updated picture.

Also, this team has to have the youngest freshmen in the country- two 17 year olds (for now) is just not that common anymore, with prep schools and parental "red-shirting."

Have any of you folks with inside sources actually confirmed that URI will have new uni's. I feel like there has been a lot of speculation and anticipation but nothing concrete.

If they are getting new uni's they have certainly waited til the last minute to unveil them.

There are absolutely new uniforms this year. They were supposed to be ready to be shown at last week's Alpine CC event, but there was a delay.

Not alot to complain about tonight but from the 30 seconds of the game I saw I didnt see the players name on the jersey.Im hoping the just havent had time to do this since they just arrived. To me not having player names is small time.

I'm have no issue with no names on home jerseys - your fans should know the players. Agree they should be on the roads jerseys.

I'm not that big a fan of the uni's, but they all look better when you win, so that may change..

Adidas just seems to have 3-4 styles every year and they use them for every team...they need to step it up...prob why kids don't wear Adidas anymore..

That being said if I was a player the material would be what I'd be excited about...Maine looked like they were wearing high school style material from the mid 90's

I like them. They look better in person than the screen grab.
The keaney blue shows up live, not so much through a lens i guess.
I like the lettering.

Interesting that the women have 'rhody' on theirs.

Also, i love that we're 'rhode is' on the espn crawl. I always hated seeing 'uri' on that.

I like the uniform piping, and colors, but the letters suck.
Looks like my granddaughter drew them.
We've had names on the uniforms since Sly's day. Why not now?
I had no idea who number 15 was (Kemp) because he was #33 the last time I saw them
in the summer time.

count me as one who overall likes the uniforms and most importantly likes the fact that they actually fit. I agree with ace though about the "I" and the "S" not looking too great, looking forward to seeing what the road uniforms look like on Monday night.

To me, it's the "A" that looks weird. If they kept the same font from last season and just added it onto the new unis they would be awesome. Still a fan of these overall.

Undefeated in the new unis!

I also like the featuring of Rhode Island in everything, I hope that effort continues to make the team/school the main rep of the state.

We could put the names below the numbers like in the Al days (the Andre Samuels teams). I'd prefer no names to that. Haha.

I have always wanted "Rams" in writing on the front of home unis would be real classy. The road navy's of the 99 team those were flat out gorgeous!

Home uni no names on back - name on the front that counts!
