It's clearly not tan/cream, just the lighting. The first photo clearly shows a bright white. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

I did a search for Wyoming and nothing showed up in this topic, but after seeing them on page 3, I have realized that Wyoming is not mentioned in the post. Therefore I would suggest that we at least type the team name and nickname to all future posts to make items easier to search for in the future.

Well they have before... if they removed the gray for sky blue then i applaud them UPDATE: Looks like they do indeed have the gray set still. Green jersey has white numbers The Gray set has the mud green numbers.. not the best look Cal Bears | Miami Dolphins | Cleveland Cavaliers |@dcjames5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont care Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 That grey set is really awful. It will be horrible for announcers to call games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germanshepherd Posted May 12, 2016 Share Posted May 12, 2016 At least they have the sky blue in the middle of the sleeve stripe on the gray, it really pops. The green jersey should take note. i have unquantifiable corpses on my conscience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't need fancy things to get recruits. But for smaller schools who they know they aren't going for national championships. Kids know the program may lose every game. If they commit there needs to be something fancy and crazy to try and get there attention from an equal type school to land a recruit and that's where the uniforms and all the free stuff comes in. Which other than a select few big schools. Most the crazy stuff come from the smaller schools who need something extra to catch an eye of a recruit. If they already know they may lose every game, then it doesn't matter which recruits they land.. The could save a lot of money in uniforms and scholarships by just letting average kids come and walk on... The only team it really worked for is Oregon, and you could argue that it didn't REALLY work.. Every other team who tries it is simply beating a dead horse.. Clemson is another great example.. They don't have all the championships Bama has.. They're also a small-ish school comparatively speaking (nearly 20,000 less students than Alabama), and only have 1 helmet and minimal uniforms, and they are an elite team now, due primarily to recruiting (recruiting which was done without dozens of uniform combinations and alternate helmets).. It's a cheap ploy that everyone thinks they need to buy into, but there are so many other factors that students consider.. Spend the money from all those extra uniforms on locker room upgrades or a team lounge or personal gear for the kids.. Spending your money to invest in something that dilutes the brand for sake of impressing a few kids is almost counterintuitive.. 3 jerseys, 3 pants, 1 helmet.. That's all you need.. Make your other stuff nice if you want to get recruits... Or win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razorback447 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Has this Tulane helmet been posted before? I saw it in the uniform release video and it was new to me at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djam2410 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 I wish they would lay out everything that was shown in the reveal. I believe they also had a gray helmet in the reveal video but could not tell due to lighting. In one frame, it appeared gray, then in the next the lighting changed and it shifted to a greener color. They just need to use the gray helmet below as well as the sky blue one Cal Bears | Miami Dolphins | Cleveland Cavaliers |@dcjames5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tron1013 Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 So UVa has release a new 2016 poster that has this image (touting its players from the Virginia Beach "757" area code): I found it interesting that these jerseys are essentially the previous coaching regime's throwbacks, but they now have the V sabre logo on the collar rather than the old throwback logo. Do we think this is a photoshop job or an indication of a new full time uniform? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henburg Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 I hope so, those throwbacks are some of my favorite uniforms in all of football. Along with an orange helmet featuring the V sabre logo, Virginia easily has one of the best looks in college football IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williams Posted May 16, 2016 Share Posted May 16, 2016 If I had to guess, the Virginia picture is photoshopped. But as a UVa fan, I hope we switch to that jersey full-time or get a brand new look. I hate our current look (but love the helmet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, except for the orange helmet, completely different stripes, and V's everywhere. Seriously? Didn't we just have this same conversation about Nebraska and Wisconsin. Here's my list of priorities if I'm designing a college football uniform. Step one; use my school colors. Step two; look really good. Step 99; worry about what other schools look like. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
