I don't know guys. A Longhorn collar logo would really just add that missing touch. Maybe even making that uniform but in an all black as an alternate alternate. Should I tweet this to CDC? I bet a fashion forward fella such as himself sure'dly agree.

First, you said '69.....heh..heh...

Second, last all white team to win a national championship.

Third, yep I was on the old site back in the day and I don't give a furk if ya'll like or not.

KMAss.

I’d settle for some tackling throwback to 1969

To be fair, if it’s tackling a bunch of slow-ass whiteboys running a 4.9 I like our chances....

Apparently, even God can't figure out to get us in right shade of orange anymore.

But if it works for one game then so be it.

Every time people complain about the jersey color, I think about that post from the equipment guy with like 30 years worth of them, all the same color. It’s not the color, it’s the material.

That said, the clean design is so much better than what’s current.

It really drives me crazy how the hype machine continues to roll in the wake of a miserable performance. All the ancillary shit with this program should stop when I’m pissed off. 

Seriously?

Happy we’re honoring one of my favorite teams of all time. Hate all the social media hype after a 2nd loss, this one particularly bad after 3 straight meh showings. 

Social media's gonna roll on, it's how recruiting works now. The players all deleted most of their social media before the season started - they just have their Instas.

who's the guy giving the speech at the beginning?  i see him in every game.   he's basically tied to Herman's hip, especially when Herman is talking to the refs.

Fernando Lovo - asst. athletics director for football ops.

He was wrong. I deal with fabrics, our cottons and nylons in royal blue, navy, khaki, and orange are the same. You can dull down performance fabric colors easily.

He showed a picture where they were literally all the same. Not sure how it’s possible for that to be wrong...

They appear differently on tv and/or in light vs shadow and/or when they get sweaty. Side by side, the color is the same.

It’s criminal these aren’t our full time uniforms- minus the 150 decal (nod to the 100). Can you imagine the stormtroopers with this look??? My god our current uniforms are ass my dude.

You're a seamstress for the band?

That's a good point about them getting wet, they will darken differently.

Yes and put the players number back above the Longhorn on the side of the helmet.

Nah, then it's too cluttered, like our current jerseys. Just the longhorn, keep it dead simple.

Recruiting continues.

If you are expecting everybody to wear sackcloth and ashes you might just want to tune out for awhile.

This is a great way to reward the players after a hard fought loss to their most rivalrous of rivals.
