Richard Pitino enters his second season as coach of the Minnesota Golden Gophers men’s basketball team, and this weekend he gave us a look ahead to what we can expect from his team during the ’14-15 season. Sartorially, anyway.
Today, enjoy your first glimpse of the new black Minnesota basketball uniform, which pairs a blacked-out base with gold stripes, letters and numbers. Adding UM-specific detailing, the jersey-back boasts an Aerographic that mixes the Gophers’ “M” logo with campus imagery, celebrating the school, history and program.
The Golden Gophers will wear the new black uniforms as part of an as-yet unscheduled “blackout” themed game. Stay tuned for updates as they develop, and check out a full shot below.
