I called Nike today to ask them if our jersey for this year would change to the same style as the Pro Combat uniforms....I was going to purchase an Authentic and didn?t want to find out that our jersey?s were changing to the Pro Combat style that we saw at the end of last year... Not thinking it would look different, but that the stitching on the shoulders would appear in our normal jersey along with a material change and the way it was ?fit?.

The gentleman I spoke with put me on hold and said that there are no jersey changes scheduled to be released for Ohio State under the Pro Combat line until November 19th of 2010.

So it doesn?t appear that Nike is using the Pro Combat jersey?s for our ?normal? uniform, which I though was odd ? I thought the point of the program was to show off the new technology ? but you?re not going to use it??I wasn?t hoping for a ?scheme? change, but just adapting the Pro Combat style.

But what we will see something special for Michigan again at the end of the year. November 19th puts Nike on a similar schedule to what they had last year for their ?Throwbacks? or Special uniforms under the Pro Combat name and it does appear that we are going to see a similar marketing campaign this year.

Just thought I'd share...

Yeah it's interesting that they wouldn't go to the new material right away, perhaps they didn't fully understand what you meant by changing the jerseys though I dunno

Jesus, Mary and Joseph -- that's called an 'ejaculation' for those of you without Catholic school experience -- are we going to go through this again? Isn't the OSU contract and name big enough to tell Phil Knight to either learn wtf a real 'throwback uniform' is or leave the Buckeye's signature look alone?

Honestly, I didn't really hate the throwback jerseys from The Game. They weren't bad or good...just different. I guess that if they're going to do throwbacks, I'd like them to find something a little more interesting. Or just not do alternate jerseys. Whichever.

I would like them to actually do throwbacks, not cookie cutter designs used for a dozen different schools. The uni was virtually identical to ou.

I got an email today from WVU that they are 1 of 10 schools wearing the Pro Combat jerseys in a game for 2010 that will be unveiled on September 1st in NY. OSU, Alabama, UF, Miami, Oregon State, TCU, Boise, VT, WVU, and Pitt are the schools according to the email.

Interesting mix of schools when you break it down by conference.

ACC = 3
SEC = 2
Big East = 2
Non BCS = 2
Big Ten = 1

Big XII = 0
Pac 10 = 0

I screwed one up. FSU was not in the email, but Oregon State was.

It probably will not be this way, but they could do OSU vs. Miami, VT vs. Boise, TCU vs. OSU, Alabama vs. UF, and WVU vs. Pitt
