jgiff17 Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Such a great color scheme and all the professional pictures are from years ago! Too good of a color scheme to go to waste. Looked up that hooks hat...$35 no thanks I’ll save the picture and be on the lookout. I would trade the Texans for the titans so we could have the oilers back. I’m not too tied down to the Texans to not go back to my ex that skipped town. Madison Marlins (Texas HS) in Houston have looked like the oilers since I first saw them in 93 I think.

Branding is so much more vital now that back in the 60s-70s If branding matters then they should be the Tennessee Oilers That is one of the best logos in sports.

In the old days, it seemed helmet manufacturers could only get blue helmets in a lighter, near-powder blue (see old Denver Broncos helmets) or a dark navy (see old LA Rams and NY Giants helmets, which never matched their royal blue ). Ole Miss was in the former category. They had no other uniform aspects-- jerseys, pants, stripes, numbers-- with that powder/columbia/light blue. It is what it is.

They have somewhat re-embraced powder blue in recent years, with powder blue baseball uniforms, football helmets that they wear twice a year, and tons of merchandise. http://www.hailstateunis.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, @Stevemealone. Glad to see I’m not alone! Some of these unis are amazing. I just wish there were more teams with this scheme as their standard uniforms.

B-Rich Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Archbishop Rummel High School, several blocks from my home in Metairie, LA, has that color scheme. Interestingly, the football team has pretty much always used red as the primary (jersey) color, but the basketball team usually uses powder blue: It is what it is.

B-Rich Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 One more. Louisiana Tech's official colors are red and (royal) blue. However, the Lady Techsters basketball team has traditionally worn red and powder blue: For awhile back when I was in college in the mid-1980s, the men's basketball team also wore powder blue with red, and featured this guy, who went on to bigger and better things: It is what it is.

It was less so in the 80's when they were basically light blue & white with a red logo, but it became a little bit more pronounced in the 90's when they started putting red outlines on their numbers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lighting in the picture might be weird, but Ole Miss had powder blue helmets for about 40 years. They were brought back recently. Sorry if you already knew this, but I thought it was close enough colors to be mentioned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The baby blue jersey and white pants was awesome but I was never a fan of the white over white. I liked the white jersey with baby blue pants.
