Will UMass Show Off its New Look Soon?

We have been hearing for a few months that the Minutemen are planning on changing their wardrobe,and by the sound of things, the new threads are in the closet.

While at the Meet-and-Greet at the UMass Club in Boston, I asked Coach Molnar about the newuniforms, and he said that UMass fans would be in for a “surprise” and that there would definitely be achange. He wouldn’t go into it further, and we haven’t heard anything about a release date since then.

However, Mike Wegzyn, while tweeting about the new EA Sports NCAA ’13 game, mentioned that thegame had the “old uniforms” – meaning the uniforms from last year. That tells me something: If lastyear’s uniforms are old uniforms, the new ones are probably in stock (and unfortunately not in thegame).

I contacted a source close to the team, who indicated that the team hasn’t shown the new uniforms, yet.Apparently the school isn’t ready to release them. A different source had previously indicated that the uniformswould have a different color scheme than last year but couldn’t go into it further.

Hopefully that means the Aquafresh Helmets are a thing of the past.

I would hope that, if a new logo is involved, UMass can get the word (and merchandise) out soon, so fans canpurchase apparel before the first game.
