Don’t believe the hype…

A few weeks back there were posts online regarding the Miami Hurricanes football team getting some fresh new black alternative Nike jerseys for the upcoming 2008 season.

Don’t believe the hype. At least not according to Nike.

We spoke to our rep earlier today and he ‘triple confirmed’ there’s nothing about this on the books. He went on to say Nike is DEFINITELY not producing a black Miami uni for this upcoming season.

Great news for the traditionalists, but bad news for the trendy Cane in search of another new-look jersey.

More news for the old school Cane? We did hear a rumor that we could see an traditional, 80s-style jersey sometime soon. Whether that’s 2008 or 2009 remains to be seen – but all fans clamoring for that retro Canes look, might actually get their prayers answered… finally.

Stay tuned.
