Bradley men to wear pink uniforms

[Da Coach]

The BU women have worn pink for special breast cancer promotions the last couple years, but this season both the women and the men will wear the pink uniforms for the "Go Pink, Go Bradley" promotion.
The women will wear pink Feb. 23 against Creighton. The men will wear new pink uniforms Feb. 16 against Indiana State.

As long as we are not allowing an ISU to wear their home whites. We just broke the losing streak that ensued after we allowed the other ISU to wear their home whites on our floor.

OK............I cheer for the Braves even if they wear polka dot but I'd certainly laugh if they did...

remember this is a violation of some league and state rules that require home teams to wear white...
I hope if the MVC has such a rule we've check it out first...

Only a handful of Division I men's teams ever done this before?
..some DII's have done it....



and I can find only one D-I - Pacific that wore full pink

Creighton had white with pink trim last year

Hopefully we'll wear white with "hints" of pink, and some black too. Creighton's blue and pink looked nice and not too girly if there "has" to be pink in the uniforms.

If these are them..

... then they look pretty full blown pink to me!

I LOVE alternative Uni's. I wish we would bring back the Black Uni's!

I hate this idea. I didn't think I could like something less than the idea of black jerseys, but this is it.

And partnering with Komen too!

Terrible all around.

I still miss the throwback cursives that we got as a white out a few years ago.

As long as they do not go back to those short shorts.

If the pink uniform helps them win, I don't care if it comes with a tutu...

Hey that could work! The other team would be laughing so hard we could run circles around them!

Bad idea.... enough already.... Not taking anything away from cancer research, or, women's cancer research/support (particularly breast cancer)...

But really.... how much (over) exposure and games for other groups proclaiming their support are needed?

It's getting to be so frequent with breast cancer, seems like just another ploy to get more butts into BU's MBB Game seats...

Wait a minute, what ever it takes to fill the joint...!!!!!!!

We should have special jerseys for a men's colon cancer cure game, a lung cancer cure game, an Alzheimer's cure game, a St Jude's support game, an Adopt a stray dog or cat game, an AIDS research/cure/support game (suppose BU could re-use the pink jerseys), a Jenny Craig lose the fat game (no jerseys bigger than XL), a no more assult weapons game (cammo jerseys, or, ninja warrior black trench coats instead of jerseys)

Sheesh.....

Agreed AZ. Breast cancer "awareness" is at 100%. I think we can stop using that term anytime now.

Also I don't understand why you spend a bunch if money to do the rebranding with specific color combinations only to completely disregard it 20 games into the first season with your premiere sport. It reminds me of goofy minor league jersey promos like the Chiefs or Rivermen.

When is the San Diego chicken coming to town?!

[BSSFan#1]

Pink = ugh!

Lots of college teams don't wear white at home.

I agree with regards to awareness, etc. Plenty of awareness.

NOOOOOOOO! They better win. I'm already thinking about my "playing soft" posts.

Great idea and very important. Love it
