I was wondering the same thing. It seems as if we have been with Russell for a few years now and I'd think that license agreement would be expiring soon. I would hate to shell out $80 and then have OU land a very different uniform look for next year. With the success of our teams the past few years I'd think we'd have a better chance to land with one of the bigger companies. I'd love to see us go back to Addidas or even Nike. Can anyone remember how long OUr agreement wiht Russell was supposed to be?
WIth the adoption of the new NCAA jersey regulations, I am willing to bet that we will get new jerseys next year. However we very well could keep the same design.
As some with a sharp eye may have noticed, the NCAA issues a blue square patch on the jerseys and shorts that are approved for game wear. This is the first year of the program, and jerseys were not required to be submitted and approved; however it is next year. Basically the schools with the patches are mostly the schools that have new jerseys for this year, and the larger schools (Big Ten, SEC, etc.) Since we do not have the patches this year, and it is required next year, I would wager that we would get new jerseys and get them approved. If we were to continue to use our current jerseys, I would've thought we would've sent them in prior to this year and had the patches on the jerseys.
