How else would Nike advertise their products at no cost whatsoever?

Indeed. A disgraceful look for this game. However the purple is involved won't save this look. They sold out for marketing. They should be embarrassed.

A top 5-10 program needs to dress like one. That's not what's going on here.

From uniwatch on TCU wearing purple instead of the ones pictured:

Uni Watch says: Doesn't really matter either way, since the Horned Frogs are pretty much the ugliest team in the nation no matter what they wear.

Yeah, we understand that because 10 years of commitment will produce those kinds of results. But everything isn't perfect either like your crappy new uniforms. I'm sure the recruits love that business and are all into it. And if you can successfully can sell that to them, terrific.

When does your coaching staff start wearing Members Only Jackets?

Also, why are 2011 games being moved to Farrington Field? I thought your stadium would at least be ready to play games.

I'm sorry those are hideous, but still not as bad as those Oregon monstrosities.

This holds no interest to me. I'd rather focus on the bowl game that SMU will be playing on Dec 30. K? Thx.
Don't worry. Be Happy. Or not.

This uni is all about the shoe technology. We aren't obligated to wear anything other than the shoes. According to our AD, we will be in purple as the home team. We will look kicka$$ and will kicka$$ despite NickSam and other BCS Conf lovers.

See you guys in the BE in a few years hopefully. Keep filling the Ford and it will happen.

Hey Mitch, generally enjoy your comments. Agree that the new Nike uniforms are (if there were a better word I'd use it) awful. No connection with school. And most Frog fans (over on their forum) agree with you 100%. One correction. No 2011 games scheduled for Farrington Field. The north end zone seats and all the east stadium, plus the ground to field level seats on the west side will all be usable and used. Games to be at ACS as usual, just lower capacity.

The Farrington Field comment was just a little jab. JK

Hey, look everybody. It's Corp with another edition of his unfunny zingers.

How do you reach such a level?

Don't answer that. We don't care.
