That's what I meant - the black compression sleeves, which appear to be part of the uniform or they wouldn't both be wearing them. I"m sure we will have black socks too.

I don't know how much input June has in all of this but if he has any lets stop for a second and evaluate this. Are we asking a man who's wardrobe consists of sweatsuits, bowling shirts, and leis for fashion advice? Seems like a bad idea.

I think getting as many people in SMU jerseys would help appeal to recruits and fans. Let's be honest we haven't really been appealing to anyone with our jerseys in a long time. If they have been trying to appeal to recruits they have failed miserably might as well appeal to someone.

Not inspiring. But at least they don't look like Wyoming's vomit-design jersey.
For that, Nike design intern, I thank you. But that's not saying much.

I'll buy a current SMU jersey or ask for it for Christmas, wear it around school once or twice a week, and if I can get my hands on a SMU Rugby Club jersey/shirt I'd wear that too.

Could have been a lot worse. Not my favorite but sure beats some we have had.

Re: Nike Jerseys?
I think they are decent but I find it incomprehensible that we can't get blue jerseys when the overwhelming majority of people want them. Who blatantly ignores their fans/customers and lives to tell about it? Maybe we get them as a third jersey idk but come on already and make them the home jersey.

Re: Nike Jerseys?
You have to assume someone at SMU (June?) has to approve the design before Nike makes them. So until we get the "someone who approves" that has a better appreciation for what a good uniform looks like we are going to be stuck with these off the wall designs. [deleted] as we may (will), this is what we have and it ain't going to change. Crap.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

Don't you remember that those of us who want our uniforms to reflect SMU's colors "live in the past and we have a loser outlook"???? Anyway, I agree w/your statements but I'm thankful they aren't burnt orange and lime green!!!

I can't say anything that hasn't already been said, but the stripes should
at least be blue on the home and road jerseys, we are starting to look like t.tech
and coog high .
