Just… super corny. Those gloves… ugh.

As early as the founding of the Virginia Agricultural and Mechanical College in 1872, there has been a Corps of Cadets. VPISU is recognized under federal law as one of six senior military colleges in the country, separate and apart from the service academies. Only one other program like it exists in the country and that is at Texas A&M. Also, by doing so, Nike has continued/expounded upon the “UT PROSIM” from last year’s uniforms.

I had my reservations when I heard the rumors and when I first saw the photos this morning. However, after reading that the black is to honor the Corps of Cadets, I have to say that I am 100% in favor of the color.

They remind me of this:

FUGLY. Those shoes… they are worse than the multiple color choices of soccer shoes. Just, ugh. I am not looking forward to the ribbing from my non-VT ACC friends.

“Much more to come tonight, including interviews with representatives of Virginia Tech and Nike.”

I hope you took the chance to cock-punch the Nike rep.

Is that a hand warmer for that cold summer day the first week of September in DC?

Guess we’ll have to be wearing these things more than once. Definitely against Florida A&M, i mean Miami, when they break out their new ones for the first time.

until I see them in action. I hated the white ones at first, but liked them after the UVa game (Wonder why?). I like the black, like the helmet. But I need some serious convincing on the numbers and shoulder stripes.
