Coaches Representing

[KajunKrazy]

Both schools coaches wear white a lot even though their colors are black and gold. They wear white a lot more often than gold

Have you ever noticed that every school in America wears white, as it is the color the visitor must wear in most cases? When you can say that about black let me know and thy will be done. It’s just not the same comparison. Good try it was a valiant effort.

No actually you used a bad analogy. So you are perfectly fine with Robe wearing gray everyday and never wearing red or white is what you are saying? Just so we are clear. You can also say that black and white are not colors.

Good gosh!!!! Please, Turbine, make it stop!!! Next thing you know,we'll have a post hijacked by a discussion of how many angels can fit on the head of a pin, or something equally important.

Really? To compare black to white in this discussion is just stupid. Speaking of stupid are you really that wrong all the time or do you just do that on here to _________ with people.

Before answering, I need to know what colors they're wearing.

HA Ha back in those days every coach in america wore gray PE coach looking shirts for practice. Stokley never wore any thing other than vermillion and white on game day, press conferences and I would guess in home visits as wel

Stokley's coaching shorts are on point. I'm pretty sure the issued those to all coaches in the 80s.

[facelessjonmoon]

All I know is in my lifetime through the Stokley years we never had black in any uniforms or paraphernalia. To this day our school colors are vermillion and white. If all those people you mentioned want to be out of school colors then let them that doesn't mean I have to approve...... To be honest the way I see things going over the last several years, I wish they'd just change the colors to red and black officially. That would make more sense than what ever it is they are trying to do now.

All I know is our baseball team made it to the CWS this same year that the new logos with black outlines and black hats were introduced.

Point is it definitely wasn't a football only/ Baldwin thing. More of a Julie Simon-Dronet @ Lafayette thing.

(Ironic that our marketing person had a hyphenated name at that time. A little too ironic I really do think)

Turbine, can we implement a feature that automatically moves comments with the word black or parking or smoking cigars to a separate thread on that topic so I can avoid it? Or an ignore feature maybe that hides certain posts?

[JamesTheJeweler]

Geezus! I got 3 comments into this thread and immediately started my period. For ____s sake, enough already with this dumb sh_t.

Traveling whites are the traditional road uniform in football. Also, white and grey have been used as unofficial trim/background colors for many universities. It appears now that black has replaced grey and white as the unofficial trim color for many universities.

I don't have a problem with the black out for the Military game. I do have a problem with any black helmets/uniforms outside of that, and yes, it does rub me the wrong way for the staff to wear black most of the time.

Our official color is Vermilion. It's historical. It's meaningful. It's personal for us.

Have any of you guys worked in sports?

1. When we wear "Vermillion" or white uniforms. Black shirts are easy to identify on the sidelines, because all of the fans and players are wearing Vermillion or white at home games.
2. When traveling, I prefer to wear dark colors. It hides wrinkles and along with any food or marks.

It's that simple. You guys want to be big time, but you worry about small things. Florida State and Texas have both worn black and I can purchase a ton of their gear in black. We are all aware of their "offical" school colors.

Please let this die and enjoy what we have. My god.....you people!
