Pitt Men's Basketball Team Goes Retro With Throwback Uniforms

The throwback jerseys are bright blue with a yellow script "Pitt" logo.

It is unclear when these uniforms will be worn.

A game on Jan. 28 has been named a "Pitt Blackout" game, and the team will wear black uniforms with a dark blue "Pitt" logo and pale gold numbers.

The basketball team isn't the only Pitt Panthers team with throwback uniforms. The football team also debuted similar bright blue throwback uniforms last year.
