Those shorts aren’t actually as short as people here think. They’re normal length. Players now roll them up at the waistband to make them shorter. You could see a lot of white waistbands yesterday.
Don’t like the black uniforms

Change is neither good nor bad in and of itself. It depends what the outcome of the change is. As for our colors, they were changed once, a year after the 1st ones were set. That was 126 years ago. Changing that would be foolish, most certainly not good.
Technically not true. The outcome of the initial change could be bad, but the change in itself good because it led to even further change that was positive. Sometimes the act of just being willing or able to change is the positive.
Again, not technically true. The shades of the colors has changed several times over the years, particularly the shade of blue. Lots of teams have changed colors, mascots, names and so forth. Typically it worked out for the positive. Why would it be foolish or not good if they changed it now? Did you only initially watch, support and become a fan of UK because of their colors? Would you have rooted for a different team if say UK's colors were blue and green?
Theres no team without them...unless you want to fill the team with scrubs from the mountains...which actually I'm sure most of you would want
Things people get worked about. Bring back converse!

“We are proud to be the first Kentucky team to wear our new logos,” men’s basketball head coach John Calipari said. “Nike is the best in the business and they’ve done great work to help us build our look for the future.”
Royal blue and white remain the primary colors of Kentucky Athletics, and black, cool gray and metallic silver have been included as a part of the secondary color palette.
Just saying ...... It's an official color. Not saying I wanna see it constantly but it is an official color for UK athketics.

What? First off, I didn't say players dictated the program, so don't put words in my mouth. I was just questioning someone saying the player didn't matter.
A program is not just a stage, they benefit a hellava lot more than the players do. So, dont get that twisted. Players should get what they want before the fan. Know your role!
They should have more more say so with the program than the fans do. I'm not saying jerseys help a kid decide a school but it can effect them while they are there.
Here is my point about the unis and I'll leave this argument alone........
When you go out to a bar or anywhere hoping to pick up a girl (or boy for some, I don't discriminate), do you feel more confident wearing something that you really like or something your Mama picked out for you with checkerboards on it?
Enough said, give what they want. Going to a black uni does not make us Duke or any other school. We can do whatever we want.
Whatever, you'd argue the sky was green. I think I know your former name, again, go away.
I didn't say they don't matter, I was referring to many of the posts that seems to want to give the players carte blanche.
I'm sorry you are having such trouble with facts and being able to articulate a logical, factually based post. I don't dumb myself down so others can feel more secure with themselves. It really shouldn't be that hard to figure out, princess. It's literally in the current name.

So did the school change its colors permanently and will be wearing black frequently or are they just wearing them for a few exhibitions that dont even count on the record? Oh just the exhibitions. Was Trying to gauge the crying and butthurt and why it existed.
Remember last time they were in the Bahamas and they were jerseys that were one color in the front and another on the back...ppl couldnt contain their tears...then a couple months later, forgot all about it

I can't figure out if this is halirous or or pathetic at the argument I'm seeing in this thread. Some of y'all have no chill or maybe you just get your kicks arguing over some stupid ass shit on a message board. Be grateful you're alive and God has blessed you to even be able to watch Kentucky basketball whatever the damn jerseys look like.
I don't care either way, as long as the kids like them. Not sure why, but black uniforms always make players look smaller, esp. in football (at least on the TV screen)
I don't like white......
Suck it up buddy bc we are blue and WHiTE
Much better looking unís tonight
This is ridiculous. I hate the white uniforms. We’re not even the home team. We’re the underdogs so we should be blue.
Now, see how stupid that sounds? Please, let. It. Go.

I agree, OP . . . 100% !
U.K. has been blue-and-white since Hector was a pup. Absolutely no reason to depart from that historical, and highly successful, tradition !
Go, 'Cats ! ! !

Get rid of the shoulder blue patches and make the name n # blue and those jerseys tonight would do
Black uni's need to go, an American flag patch needs to be on the uni. I know Mr Wildcat had his reasons but he was wrong.
I like the Black Unis, have always liked them! It's an official school color according to the OFFICIAL KENTUCKY GRAPHICS GUIDE
To paraprhase that iconic quote from Kindergarten Cop:
Home unis have white, road unis have blue
