Fulmer.

I'm pretty sure that they are going to do it.

I talked to him back during spring practice, when the decision to move AWAY from the black socks was made, and told him how much a large number of Vol fans that I knew, wanted the stripes back. He said he likes them, and they are looking into it. I've now heard more recently that they are much closer to doing it.

Funny you say that. The basketball team will probably wear black uniforms at neutral sites next season.

Butch Davis will just change them back in '07.

Interesting. Thanks for the info O2...

I know you are really a closet hurricane fan, but there isn't a chance in hell HE ever coaches at the University of Tennessee.

He hated them and the "luck" they brought with them.
He should have sprinkled some of that "magic dust" he was babbling about last year on them.

It's this type of B.S. that makes almost everyone that posts here, HATE you. This is a thread about UNIFORMS. Not Fulmer. Take your B.S. and your bad attitude to another thread.

I REALLY wish that Mods were able to police behavior like this.

I'll go where I want, when I want. I've broken no board rules here. The response was on topic. If the coach is changing uniforms for a reason as mindless as superstition, it deserves ridicule. The topic was changes in the uniform. I commented on the obvious silliness related to changing the color of the uniform socks. If you don't like my post, I'm very happy with its content.

It's JUST a comment. Fulmer doesn't ACTUALLY believe that socks had anything to do with luck. He also never believed that "magic dust" would fix anything. It's called Sarcasam, and since you put it in almost every one of your posts, I would think you would understand it. Course, it doesn't fit your agenda to allow Fulmer to use it.

Anyway, BACK ON TOPIC......
I'm not a big fan of the Orange on Orange look. I don't like the memories of the last few times we have worn them, although the long term memories are better than those few times. I don't think Phil will go back to Orange on Orange while he is here, although he likes to allow players to vote on certain uniform policies, since they have to wear them, so it's possible, although not really on the radar for this season.

Wearing all Orange became too commonplace. We were wearing it for every big home game for a while under Majors. Sneak it in every few years, then it has some novelty and gives the crowd a bit of a lift. We should go back to the orange pants on the road.

I understand the puns sometimes and sometimes they are funny, just not all the time.It's called overkill. Hat is just being Hat.He'll get under your skin if you let him.I'm sure I've probably ticked him off a few times, vice versa, but I don't get mad about it.I say say it to a person's face if you really want to prove your manhood not behind a computer screen.I would like to be at the VolNation meeting in Knoxville though when all hell breaks loose. :biggrin2:

By the way. "Magic Dust" was from the Cotton Bowl Postgame, not last season. :nener:

Actually, he mentioned it after the USC game last year. That's when a good portion of this board turned on him.

Names on the back of unis and the outline of the #'s!!

Bring the fat stripe on the helmet back!!


Orange Pants for away games (with or without the double stripe)

Black cleets!!

Don't care about the socks, white or black, but when it's cold, wear the Orange leggings for home games.

The black trim around the #'s and nameplates is the worst thing that ever happened to our uniforms.

Q. Coach, what about the fact, I know you talked through the week about wanting Bowl success because you've had some recent Bowl failures. Your team looked excited early, coming out, jumping up. Did you put a lot of emphasis on everybody getting into the game?
COACH FULMER: We're not a senior team. We're a very young football team in a lot of ways. 13 seniors and about five or six that really start.
You know, there's not any magic dust out there that you just sprinkle on somebody and say, "Let's be excited." If you would have asked me Thursday, our Thursday practice was about as bad as we've had this year, to be honest with you. I mean, these guys know, I'm sweating bullets. I say, "We may get run out of the stadium."
But young people are resilient. We talked about being here, the great opportunity we had. I told them, "This is a tremendous Bowl, the tradition of this Bowl, to put the exclamation point on this season was extremely important."


As for last season, it was after the Georgia game that he used it a second time....

And make no mistake, the Vols' 27-14 loss to Georgia was a funeral attended by 108,470. Tennessee's dream season -- one that started with a No. 3 ranking in most national polls, assumptions of a Southeastern Conference title and dreams of a national championship -- is dead, dead, dead.

"If I could sprinkle magic dust on it, heck, I'd fix it," Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer said.
