Who came up with this idea? Who is the moron that thought this was in any way acceptable? And I don't give one flying flip what the players think. Not one bit.
I'm not psyched, I'm bummed. I think they suck. Call me Darrell-Royal old school: let's not "candy up" our uniforms.
I hate them. This is how it starts and the next thing you know, you are wearing lime green socks and shoes like Notre Dame or the Heraldic banner of John Calvert first Baron of Baltimore on your helmet like Maryland.
Maybe gold pants are what we need in this game. They might hide the fact we have wet our collective pants, again. Kinda like how the British army used to wear red coats to hide the blood.
I was thinking some more about this and then it hit me like Chris Brown: what if Mack was serving gold Skittles to the team after the game? Maybe as part of the Good Kids Who Graduate and Make the Longhorn Family Proud Because Beating OU Isn’t Everything ceremony. OMG that would be perfect!
This team went gold last Sat night and scored 56 by halftime Here are their scores for the season. 69-3 70-13 70-7 73-42 The uglist unis in all history were those worn by the Irish. Those were butt-ugly. Baylor's not really that bad, if you have to go rogue and different.
Texas coaches say this is one of the first things recruits ask about, uniforms. I agree those aren't very cool, but should we at some point be open to something new? My thought, if we have a great coach, we don't have to resort to gimmicks. But on the other hand I'm not so sure I want us stuck in the 1950s either. I'm open to something, just not sure what.
Baylor has changed it's uniform numerous time, so has Tech. That's what they do. I don't want to be like Tech, Baylor or any of the other schools that have succumbed to the gimmick of crapping up their uniforms. The Baylor yellow florescent basketball unis might be close to being as bad as Notre Dame's football unis.
I could care less what they wear...new school, old school whatever..as long as they played lights out and acted like it meant something to wear any uniform. If some gold trim makes us tackle, stop the run, throw decent passes and win a game..so be it.
For those old enough to remember when DKR threw up a **** fit because Akers put two stripes down the side of the pants, there is no earthquake in the shale, only Coach Royal spinning in his grave. I have lived long enough to see a lot of distasteful **** in Austin, but this is the worst. Coach em up, coach em down, run em off, bail em out of jail, but leave the ******* uniforms alone. Anyone involved in this pimp-daddy ******** should be left in Fair Park. I guess I should be happy that the helmets aren't floppy hats with giant feathers and the cleats platform shoes.
