Obligatory uniform thread

Postby East Coast Mustang » Sun Apr 06, 2014 8:01 pm

Are we getting new uniforms for 2014, or keeping the same old bland generic ones we've had for the past two years since switching to Nike?

Red and White uniforms in the same style as the blue ones from this year. Also grey pants are being added.

Really? Interesting. Would love to see the blue uniforms again, but anything is better than what we wore last year and in 2012.

Are the greys going to be the standard pants, or just an alternate option? I really like our all white away look, hope that stays.

Wow. If we have plain jerseys with our school name on them and plain pants we're going to look like a freaking high school team.

I'd rather us NOT look like Oregon, but I wish we'd go back to blue uniforms. Some different helmet combos would be cool, too.

I have a friend who loved the 06 and 07 jerseys. He was unaffiliated with SMU or even me at that point.

Also BOP, I took ambien 5 minutes ago. I think I know a little of how you feel while posting to ponyfans drunk. Good night!

Didn't someone talk to Rick Hart (or e-mail him) and post an answer that we're going to plain red with the block letters, a red version of what we had against Rutgers?

I'm with everyone else, I'd like to see blue, but if that's what we're getting, it's still a huge improvement over those silly shoulder stripes.

Obligatory complaint about the awful shoulder bar/stripes.

In general, we hope to establish the design of our blue uniforms as our standard "look" - with a red and white version added. Then, if we add a second set of pants (red, blue or gray) and a second helmet we will have a variety of combinations to choose from. Of course, lock-up gloves, socks, cleats, etc. are also all part of the conversation.

I liked the original June Jones uniforms. Very collegiate. The previous coach trotted us out looking like a AAA high school squad. Don't do gray pants unless you're going to invoke the entire Hayden Fry concept.

And don't forget to make the helmet stripes wider.

Agreed. Why did we change that in the first place?
