A classic Indiana jersey will be making its return in 2022. Indiana football announced its latest alternate jersey on Friday via social media.

The jerseys are giving homage to the Indiana teams of the 1990s. The team released a video previewing the the new threads with various highlight clips from those days.

The helmets are a cherry-red color with the word “LEO” on the visor. The jerseys are white with red lettering, and the pants are red with a white stripe down the side.

Indiana football was coached by Bill Mallory (1984-1996) for the majority of the decade, who was followed up by Cam Cameron (1997-2001) in the late 90s.

Mallory finished his Indiana coaching career with a 69-77-3 record over 13 seasons. He also has the most bowl game appearances (6) than any other Hoosier HC. Tom Allen isn’t too far behind (3), he needs just 3 more to tie Mallory’s number.

The uniforms are branded by Adidas and will be worn on the road to honor Mallory.
