New TCU Uniforms - Ugh

Postby AustinPerson » Fri Aug 23, 2013 5:26 pm

Don't get me wrong, I really like TCU's normal uniforms and love the all white road. But hate what they do for their openers. The newest version is hideous. Easy for you to find on twitter.

I understand that recruits like ghetto-looking uniforms. But I hope we never do that, or black jerseys.

That's a lot of red in those uniforms.

Oregonesque. Especially with the random added red.

Maybe, just maybe, they're paying tribute to us guys. They respect us so they want to wear our colors :lol:

For the record, I never had a problem with our black jerseys, but the reasoning was still hilarious

They're OK for an all-black look occasionally, but that helmet's bad - replace with a mean frog face.

The red symbolizing the urban legend that horned frogs spit blood from the corner of their eye..I like it splashed throughout.

All their uniforms are ugly, purple is ugly, but at least they have new uniforms.

I concur. The all black is fine and dandy but the helmet is hideous. I am sure some Nike designer came up with the look but ultimately the team signed off on it. Reminds me of the Jamie Fox movie, Any Given Sunday, with the made up football teams and 'edgy' uniforms - gross.

Junk like that would be hell to look at but worth it if it actually helped us recruit.

Purple is terrible. Tcu blows, and can't stand how they have progressed. No matter though, because they will always be frogs.

It would be nice if Nike would do that for SMU but then again SMU is not relavent in their eyes.

I don't like the amount of black myself but the players and recruits seem to like them. Ironically I actually like the helmets. I will say that TCU has figured out how to promote these things...check out the tcu uniform video on YouTube....it's pretty cool.
