Black is just a stock color adidas uses for a variety of styles including those ZNE jackets which are really great quality. Their 'blue' isn't close to our navy so that's why you see generic colors like black and grey.
That is one story. The he other one was with the nickname change it was decided to rebrand the logo and mascot at the same time.

I'm almost certain that St. Joe's registered the domain sju.edu very early on, and had it way before St. John's ever considered a web or email domain. No way any rational person would give up sju.edu for rebranding the logo. My guess is that even today, lots of traffic looking for st. john's at sju.edu goes to St. Joe's Philly. The rebranding explanation sounds more like a lame excuse for not claiming sju.edu.That is one story. The he other one was with the nickname change it was decided to rebrand the logo and mascot at the same time.

I am dating myself again, but when did Russell sports gear go out of fashion?
David's senior year?
While St. John’s mom and pop type operation was usually late to the party and behind the time, I am not sure your timeline is accurate.
Either way, I have it on good authority (reconfirmed recently after my post on this subject) that the rebranding was planned and much to the disappointment of my sources, the people making the decision was not at all bother about losing the SJU domain.
