Not bad on the uniforms RVA. that I think would look great with the blue helmets (maybe a thin white stripe on either side of the red stripe on the helmets

Why not have the side say Flames in cursive like the Florida Gators...That would be so dope! Red letter with white trim for the blue helmets and Red Letters with Blue trim for the white!

Thanks BJ, the first white one is my favorite.

Because we are not a high school or a chain burger restaurant

Red and Blue together on a uniform looks like a clown costume. The primaries have to be white and either blue or red with the other one just for accent. I prefer blue since everybody else should be wearing red

I forgot to display the other pair of pants when I was taking screenshots, my bad.

I like. I would still prefer the stripe that we have on our blue helmets it's not as boring as Nebraska's or Penn State's.

Our logo doesn't scale. It looks okay when it's huge, but it's useless when it's small. Ever seen it on TV when they try to squish it into one of those little boxes next to the team name? You can't even tell what it is. It's mostly white with words too small to read and some red squiggly lines. Everyone else's works or they provide a suitable alternate logo for such things. Not us. Dated flaming eagle all the way!

I've become used to it, but it still bothers me that we use it where it just doesn't work. Like the side of our helmets. The Boise St. idea of scaling it up to fit the helmet is the only thing that would work for it, but you'd have to ditch other parts of the logo including the name.

And FYI: The University's official Brand Identity Guide outlines the uses of the monogram logo. It's only used as an alternative for the full University Wordmark.

Wordmark: http://www.liberty.edu/promotionalpubli ... ?PID=14585

Monogram: http://www.liberty.edu/promotionalpubli ... ?PID=14585

Athletics logo: http://www.liberty.edu/promotionalpubli ... ?PID=14587

There is the alternate "Solitary Eagle", which could be used for the Boise St.-style helmets I suppose.

Our helmet logos just really bum me out.

Good work. I don't really like any on the first page, more of a fan of the "traditional" unis. Some of them are just too busy and remind me of the WNBA, haha. I like #s 5, 8, 9, & 10. #s 6 & 11 remind me too much of Syracuse.

WNBA? or Syracuse? kidding...

I like SMU's jerseys. I think they would look sharp in our color set. Of course they are an Adidas school though.

Yeah, that is the Nike Syracuse design template. I did some of those because I think we need something that is our own. Everything we do is based off of what UVa does. Hopefully, with Gill coming in, that will change. The uniform I wore was ugly, but at least it was original. (And the red ones were not all that bad)

Gill let his team wear those powder blue throwbacks this year, so maybe there is hope!

I have the red one that belonged to Dom Bolden. It does look sweet ... but is not very flattering for my gut.

The time is coming where we will pick one Logo. Put it on most everything, including the helmet.

that's already been done. But the bookstore doesn't adhere to it.

Any interest in something like this only with the flames either in white outlined in red or vice versa?

Those look a great deal like the Delaware helmets that some school in South Canada ripped off.

I've come to find that, when it comes to uniforms, almost always will at least half of everyone hate them. I tend to give unique looking uniforms a chance. With that said, this is the ugliest design that I've ever seen for a helmet.

I'm a Michigan season ticket holder (as well as LU) and even I find these extremely horrible.
