Sorry, cannot get the link to work. But you can bet that however is financing UT uniforms will make us wear a custom ini they can market for bucks. When you sleep with dogs, you wake up with fleas.

Do what? You didn't listen on line?  Led 35-3 at the half, and cruised to a 42-17 win at Rhea County. 21 rushes for 300 yards pretty much tells the tale. |

There are a few places left in college football that I would not expect this to happen. Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, Penn State, and Michigan quickly come to mind. Black jerseys are one thing, what some company has done to Georgia's helmet is something else. Wow.

You are correct. And that's why UT will eventually (soon) wear something like that. I don't like it, because I hate change. ( I wish we still wore the pale orange and indecipherable white numerals of the seventies.) But the players love it. And that's why we'll do it. |

I'm not a "fan" of these, but I don't think they are nearly as bad as VPI and Boise's from last year. droner is absolutely right. The players love it. It's a recruiting tool. I'm more of the mindset of not caring what my team wears as long as they play well and maintain the presence of Orange... then again I'm not curmudgeonly about anything besides Tyler Bray's hair.  |

It seems to me that these designers are thinking to themselves, "How radical can I be while maintaining a smidgen of previous design in order to have some resemblance to this team's traditional jersey?" rather than tweaking the traditional design. I don't like this thought pattern.
What I don't mind is the tweaking of design and the slight modifications that appear more as updates rather than a redesign. I also wouldn't mind special jersey's for special games.
Of course, ultimately, I care about performance way more than the jerseys. My favorite, though, is orange top and white pants with orange stripes down the side. Black cleats.
