[BigMac1212]

Hi, Coyotes fan here. The Pitt Panthers returned to the royal blue and gold color scheme in a new athletics identity.

Looks good.

I don't know if you are also Pitt fans, but I do want to know what you think.

Colors are beautful. Football jerseys need a design. Currently they look like practice jerseys.

Looks meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh.

Not necessarily a Pitt fan, but the Pitt script and that color scheme are comfort food in logo form.

Don't really care about colleges. But bright blue and yellow are always nice colors.

Better than the gold and royal blue of old.

These are really nice. I’m not a Pitt fan or I’d pick up some of this new gear.

Always like those colors and PITT on the helmets.

Bout time!

There's just something about a four-letter script logo that looks right on a helmet.

Why yes, this was a blatant attempt at roping Montana into a thread about Pitt, why do you ask?

Good to see Pitt has moved past the god awful "panther"and block letter helmets they were sporting for a bit, but I have to say there is something unsettling about the intertwining between major apparel companies and state universities. Nothing good will come of this.

I can't see anything worse coming from it. College sports probably have to be a multi billion dollar industry already. When they should be EXTRAcurricular not semi-pro.

The system sucks. State universities get huge $ for aligning with big shoe companies. So do head coaches and their staff. The athletes don't get a dang thing, other than risk.. A corrupt coach (hi Mr. Pitino!) just goes to the next school to corrupt. Nike, et al, have power they really have no right to hold, absent the greed and avarice of those in the schools who benefit, who, of course, probably never played a second on a collegiate field. Maybe I am an idealist...

Life is marketing.

It only takes a few to buy into it.

I'm a purist who thinks pros don't belong in the Olympics and that there shouldn't be endorsement deals there either.

But here we are.

Can they bring back better players too while they're at it?
