Those soccer kits are sweet. I'd love to be able to purchase one of those!

Blue jerseys look the best. At the TCU game it seemed like they could purchase all kinds of different jersey options, personalize them, etc. What do we get, those damn red jerseys with the random / weird striped on the side?

If they sold blue football jerseys they would sell tons of them! It would be like printing money for the athletic department.

We've been talking unis for almost ten years now w/ no truly positive move back to our traditional uni of the 80s or prior. That by itself tells u these decisions come down to either turner or the board or both -who will not allow us to return to our traditional unis - for whatever reason but I'm sure it's absurd. It's truly obvious or we wouldn't be skirting around these goofy non traditional color schemes and hues the last decade or so. So with that said I'm willing to bet my last dollar and firstborn that things will NEVER EVER CHANGE TILL TURNER RETIRES. Bets Anyone???
BRING BACK THE GLORY DAYS OF SMU FOOTBALL!!!

For some strange reason, one of the few universities that REFUSE to use their school colors: Harvard Crimson & Yale Blue.

Sorry, I do not follow your logic that the fact that we have not change to a particular uniform is proof that turner or the board has anything to do with it. How do you know that we just have not had a coach or athletic director who wanted to use those uniforms?

Why not at least alternate the blues for the remainder of the season... wear blue against Temple and Red against Connecticut... we paid for the jerseys at least get the most for what we paid.

Turner is not the issue. Coaches need to energize the students, as well as the team and recruits. As for jerseys, we should have two home versions: Blue or Red in contrast to the opponents use of either.

Then why doesn't Turner cut to the chase & make a decision about the unis? We could end all this today.

You can then say that the constant vacillating back & forth is the decision about our unis. It will never end like it's intended 'to never end'.

Let's see what next week or year beholds now. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why does the president of the university make decisions about uniforms in your mind?
