October 11, 200817 yr I bet they will have new ones by the beginning of SEC play. They are kind of plain with old Ohio State style shorts. Hats off to them for finding a way to remember MR. WILDCAT though!!!
October 11, 200817 yr Here are some really good pics of the new jerseys. I like the sewn in black piece which says Mr. Wildcat. The checkered pattern reminds me of UMBRO's soccer shorts. http://www.ukathletics.com/view.gal?id=35653
October 11, 200817 yr I love the color and style of the jerseys. I not a big fan of the tight shirts and long shorts though. However it still is better than the ones they wore the last two seasons...

I didn't like that look when Ohio State, Syracuse, and Florida first announced they were going to do it... But once I saw them on them, I changed my mind. I think it's a pretty cool look, especially when the player is ripped. Makes them a little more intimidating, IMO.

I didn't like that style on OSU and florida and not on UK last night. However I still like them better than last two seasons jerseys and I love like the color scheme to them and stuff. Maybe the actual style will grow on me after awhile.
October 11, 200817 yr I didn't even notice that they were "checkerboard" design. Not sure if I like that or not.
October 11, 200817 yr The "K" is for Mr Wildcat Bill Keightley From nky.com: Before the Wildcats were introduced, there was a special video tribute to "Mr. Wildcat" Bill Keightley, who passed away in April. After the tribute, a permanent marker in front of Mr. Keightley's old seat was unveiled on the Rupp Arena floor by his daughter, Karen Marlowe. It is a block "K" with Mr. Wildcat in script and is on the UK sideline. Mr. Keightley is also remembered on UK's new uniforms. On the right shoulder is a black patch with "Mr. Wildcat" in script. The K on the white uniform is in white with a black outline while the blue uniforms have a black K with a white outline. http://news.cincinnati.com/article/20081011/SPT0104/810110447/1162/SPT01
