Frankly, I think all of our gear should be vermilion and white. With the exception of some black (baseball uniforms etc), the more simplicity the better.

hahaha, I know I'm going to make some of you mad, but I like the chili pepper logo. It's a bit cartoonish, but it's still cool. If I can, I'll probably try and get ahold of a tshirt or something with that logo on it. The Cajuns are my second favorite Sun Belt team, so I think wearing the RED and WHITE would be ok, right?
That picture was probably from an Academy. We had those God-awful hoodies last year, and we couldn't give them away, thank goodness. The problem is, the university might only send like a copy of the pepper logo. The company that makes the hoodies, a company that has probably never heard of UL, has to guess at what the school colors are.
I did indeed take it at Academy. To the positive side, it looks like the online store actually has added some shirts/jackets to the website. I've attached the Official Online Store Mens Apparel pdf for those interested.

do you guys make up weekly "game day" shirts for football? if so, i'd like to get one. troy has them every game, and i can't wait to see what the troy v. uL one looks like this year, i'm sure it will be hilarious. i'm going to be collecting game day shirts from all the sun belt schools over the next few seasons. of course, i'll want shirts that have nothing to do with troy, but i am proud of each of our member schools and it'll be cool to be able to flash the logos around to both help people recognize sun belt teams AND get a laugh at the humorous cartoons on the backs of them.
if you guys DO have these shirts, and someone would be willing to bring me one when they come up to troy for the game, i would graciously cover the cost plus maybe a little extra for the trouble. FYI: i wear a medium.
well since it is a game day thing, i can't find any online for sale. bascially it's a tshirt with the troy logo on the front left pocket. on the back is a cartoon drawn up by the local artist where a "mighty" trojan warrior (usualy friendly but powerful looking) is somehow beating up on the opossing mascot (always undersized and helpless looking). I'm currently wearing the game shirt from the Middle game last season. It has Hector slapping his hands together to clean them off because he has just hog-tied Lightning in the middle of MGVS. Lighting looks all scared and shocked. The shirt says, "Tied Down in T-Town."
The bottom of the back of the shirt gives the game day specifics such as who played, where it was played, and the date.
Game Day shirts are great. They give the fans something to buy that day to help them remember the event, plus they're funny and everyone loves them. I really think whoever handles the UL merch should start doing them for yall. There is nothing quite as cool as having the game day shirt from a great game, especially if it is old. It has a very unique novelty quality once the game is over. Troy usually sells out, and if not, they sell the extras for like a week then never again. Makes for great collectables.
Be sure to pick one up from us if you come up to Troy for the game this year. It will be making fun of your team, but it'll still be a great collectable. If yall win, it's a MUST to have the shirt, haha.
