What do you guys think about the black uniform tribute to Mr. Wildcat, Bill Keightley? I thought they were MAGNIFICENT. Thoughts?

They were pretty awesome. To bad they won't wear them again. They said it was a one time thing and the Jerseys will be auctioned off for Bill's Charity.

....

You could really see the checkerboard pattern, even in the stand from where I was. I'd LOVE to have a pair of those shorts.

I think it's great to honor a great man like Keightley. But when did black become part of the UK color scheme? Those were flat-out ugly unis.

I can't even find a pair of the white shorts anywhere.

Well, you don't wear white to a funeral. Black is the mournful color. I think it was a sign of mourning for Mr. Wildcat. They will not be worn again. It was a great tribute.

Agreed. But I'd wear them once a year from now until forever...

I like them...

Great honor and it shows the amount of respect UK has for one of it's fallen.

 

Does anyone know if other university's do this in these situations?

The jersey's will be auctioned off and you would assume the shorts will go too...I'll let ya know if I hear anything

I loved them and agree that they should wear them once a year.

I think they're sweet and would love to see them start making replicas of the shorts to sale. Would def. be cool to ball in, or to just simply lay around the house.
