When Fran Dunphy left Penn for Temple last spring, he took over a team that had, in my estimation, OK uniforms. I don't love the black road unis, I would have preferred the cherry, but nothing too spectacular.
I only hope that Dunphy was not the man behind the change to this year's threads, made by Adidas. They are, in a word, horrible.
And that's just the front, which is definitely the better half.
Here's the back, which kinda makes me cringe whenever I see it. Where to begin? The shoulder stripe are worthless, the butt stripe is even worse and the side piping in white, the random red stripe on the leg and the very thin black piping all combine to look like one of the worst uniforms I have ever seen.
At least it's in cherry and not black with cherry writing, and it still have the Temple "T" on the shorts which I like.
We'll see later about the basketball skills, but one team has the huge advantage in the looks department.
