What is the "uniform surprise"?

I absolutely guarantee that exactly zero recruits have ever chosen or passed on Notre Dame because we don't wear enough alternate uniforms.


I agree but it’s not about them passing because of the jersey. It’s more about how some of these kids perceive ND and maybe they get more excited and maybe one or two want to be “cool” and give ND a look because of the buzz and excitement. I don’t give a shit one way or another and think black will be silly but it doesn’t matter what I think.

At the end of the day Captains and coaches at a minimum pick the uniforms we wear they made it to the playoffs they have the right to chose what uniforms we wear.

Yikes. If this is true, we are wasting an opportunity to showcase our program in the best way in front of a big national audience. Wear the traditional home uniforms. Enough. Will OSU do this? Tennessee? Texas? Of course not.

Is this a UA thing? Who is to blame? The people who are supposed to be custodians of ND football are consistently irresponsible.

This decision was made by a marketing director at Under Armour.

Notre Dame in the Marcus Freeman era has continued to try more and more different uniform combinations and no one should be shocked if the Irish come out in something other than the traditional home uniforms on December 20 when they take the field.

Have a hard time believing they'd botch a uniform on such a big stage. I've liked everything so far in the Freeman era, outside of maybe Army this year.

I don't mind alternate uniforms - but I really don't like when team's add black for black's sake. At the end of the day I don't really care as long as they win. Winning cures everything.

Worth noting these are gold and NAVY. No black in sight and we all know navy and black is a fashion faux pas!
