Title: Uniform changes for the upcoming FB season
Post by: VinnieVOL on July 13, 2018, 04:19:27 EDT
I know many don't care what we wear at all, but hey what else is there to talk about in the middle of July?   :naughty:

So, the checkerboards on the helmet and pants are going away.  I thought they were kinda cool but don't really care either way.

No more smokey grey uni's.  My feelings are kind of the same as above... thought they were kind of cool but it doesn't bother me if they go away either.

THE RETURN TO BLACK CLEATS.  Sorry, but black cleats just screams classic glory days TN football to me....

Bottom line for me is, I'm fine with getting rid of all the Butch gimmicks and let's get back to the basics.

I thought the Smokey grays were awesome.  It's a great combination with orange. These new changes are getting back to old school uniforms.  Totally agree with the black cleats.  Give me a flat top hair cut and some high tops for the Johnny Unitas look at quarterback.

I was OK with anything that appealed to recruits, but personally, I would even go one step further, all white pants, no stripes.  I like the classic look.  Hope we can get back to being one of the classics as a football program.

As I have noted before, just put a good team on the field. I care not about their attire.
