The best thing about the new regime?

So I guess there is a movement to bring back the old blue jerseys, I'll make sure I pass that along to the boss.

Excellent.

I got the sense they were going to go back to primarily blue this season based on all of the marketing, etc.

I wouldn't be surprised if once SMU realized the season was in the tank they just kept wearing the reds most of the time so the new coach could "bring back the blue" and get everybody even more on his side.

I sure hope they do!

Yes! YES!!!

A million times yes!!!

Update the look, maybe an alternate now and then for special occasions, but by all means embrace one of the best uniforms this school has ever produced.

"People want blue jerseys... sure, why not? Let's give them some blue jerseys."

So simple. So logical. It's amazing how different the thinking is now vs. what we've been putting up with for so long.

That's significantly better than the "I know what you need better than you do theory" that gave us half [deleted] black jerseys, gelding mustangs, sideline leis, and poi everywhere.

Having said that, I am genuinely appreciative of the 2009-2012 bowl run and the victories over Nevada, Pitt, and Fresno State. Tiki June should have never been let back on campus after the ASU issue, but if that got us to this point with Chad Morris and the new enthusiasm, I'm all for it.

I'll be interested to see what kind of sideline attire the Coaches wear. Always noticed that Clemson's Coaches had great gear. Generally, HD Ready sharp colors without a bunch of crap taking away from the look. I hope they wear a vibrant blue with a tad of red accent. But I bet it will be sharp for once

My understanding is that most coaching staffs don't all wear the same color/outfit so that the players can easily identify their position coach when they look over to the sidelines. Much harder to pick someone out if every single person (player and coach) is wearing the same thing.

To me, the best thing about the regime is the renewed energy and passion. We've never had a staff that seems as enthusiastic and energized as this one. When compared with the mummies that have been running this thing for the past seven years its just so refreshing.
Back off Warchild seriously.

Easy to solve:
- The team, most coaches, and anyone else on the sidelines wears blue.
- Any coach that needs to stand out wears white or red.

How about bustin' out some of the old Ron Meyer sideline apparel? Was that revolutionary or what? Definitely had the Vegas slant to those polyester knits. Anybody got a picture?
