I was talking about the underskirt too, not the long sleeve T-shirts. I am with 35 on this. The long sleeves are a different story. But from the pictures all the player looked like they had on blue. And as has been point out that coaches may just want to stand out.

Dan Morrisson looks like he ain't changing his get-up for anyone. I know the story behind this choice in hatwear; aside from that he looks like he has embraced comfort proudly, opinions be da*med.

Coaches intentionally dress differently, so it is easier for the players on the field to pick them out when they look to the sideline for signals and specific instructions. A few years ago, assistant coach Warren Belin wore white gloves on the sideline so he could give hand signals and his hands could be seen if he happened to be in front of a player wearing a darker jersey.

I have no problem with the sweats — skin cancer is a very serious concern — but black?

Looks like both Suan and Odum were wearing blue
