Lord have mercy. Texas invading Colorado

 

[Daniel Seahorn]

Does Foster Sarell's commitment to Stanford affect Little's commitment?

Why would it? They could both play at the same time.

Cool.  Last year Jordan Elliott fllip-flopped all over the place

Now a key player on the DL

This should be its own thread on this slow news day. Good stuff. Wonder what his ideas are. I'm guessing closing in the south end zone is a big one.

I think he will probably do some things to get our fans more involved and intense so like pumping music in there constantly and stuff like that, very similar to how Saban does things at bama. The alternate uniforms thing is most interesting to me, I think our traditional unis are fine but there's definitely some potientially clean uniform combos Herman and Nike can come up with I'm sure, the man has swag

You're going to get blasted for suggesting anything outside of the traditional burnt orange and white unis.

Lol Daniel. Ain't no telling what Herman will have up his sleeve

Daniel...I admit I like the traditional unis...I think they are classics...but honestly, if it would help us get back to the top, I wouldnt care if we came out in top hats and tails.

I like the traditional look as well, but I have no problem with them possibly creating an alternate look for a special occasion. Texas doesn't have to go Oregon, but kids these days like new hotness.

Exactly, if we had some greys and some black uniform combos we would look legit, I'm not sure how I'd feel about a chrome helmet or anything like that but you can't argue that there's potiential and I understand that we have tradition but sometimes you gotta step outside of your comfort zone, I think Herman gets that

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Save the grey for practice. I have never seen a football uniform look good with grey as the dominant color.

 

[prosfromdover]

The only thing I could get behind is making the storm troopers more white and simple and the burnt orange more burnt orange and simple.

 

[Bear19]

Believing that some fancy new uniform is going to make this team or any team better is magical thinking.

But we definitely need to get back to the burnt burnt orange.

You mean like Bama does? Or maybe Penn State?

I blast thee!

 

[java]

Right, J.B. Swag is what did the trick for Saban and Meyer. Same thing for Penn State and Franklin.

Oh, and it did wonders for A&M, Tech, and Baylor. Love that swag. Yep, it's the swag that pulled all those 5 stars to 'Bama. Glad we got that figured out. Lord, I loathe the offseason. Have I mentioned that before?
