Butch on ESPN talking about uniforms and recruiting

[P.O.T.S. VOL]

Sure be nice if they ask for player/fan input. Some of you guys should email your ideas. Couldn't hurt.:hi:

H E double hockey sticks no.......KEEP THE FANS OUT OF IT. We can't agree on anything, most of us have no fashion sense, AND WE AINT WEARING THEM.

here's the deal; remember all those life lessons your dada taught you growing up?

Patience is a virtue,

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing right,

Quality over quantity,

focus on what you are doing...etc, etc, etc...

Well, NONE OF THAT MATTERS. None of it. It only holds you back in today's world. It's all flash and instant gratification now. We live in an artificial world. Everything is done cheap, now , and gone in the next minute. You know why? COMPUTERS. The information age. All this information being thrown at kids 24/7 with no way to filter it. When I went to school there was NO SUCH THING AS A COMPUTER. Your dad didn't envision a world like this. So older folks like me...we don't get it. But it doesn't even matter, because common sense flew out the window around 2000 sometime. I saw it happen.

I'd like to see these.

You would think the game of checkers was invented at UT given our obsession to work checkerboards in to our unis at all costs.

Post too long...I couldn't wait to get to the jist of your post and stopped at the "virtue" thing.

This is hilarious and exactly how I feel. I'm all for the alternate uniforms and changing it up but those are just awful.

 

[Cyclopskiller]

The only thing I would change, put a checkerboard grey ghost fade on the helmet..

I had supported a mix up myself and have liked most of the options including the ones on EA sports but those checkered shoulders......uh....no.

 

[OrangeBlood4life]

No matter what alt uni we have. Some people are gonna whine and complain. Butch will not have us lookin retarded no matter if you like them or not. Opinions are like a-holes .

Let's have a little uniform lesson

Alabama - winner of 3 out of 4 NCs. Top 5 recruiting class every year. Same uniforms since Bear Bryant was a baby

Oregon- 0 NCs in history of program. Change uniforms like I change my underwear. Smells of desperation

But I thought "teens" knew what was cool?:ermm::ermm:

 

[midtnvol2]

We will need some uniforms to wear.

Agree, Dooley dooled all over the ones from last year and tainted them with losses.

Uniforms and Championships are unrelated in any way. Try again.

And Oregon was beaten by a team that's had the same uniforms since the 50s.

Exactly the point he was making, to all those that claim we HAVE to change our uniforms.

Have you seen how some of them dress?

I blame the parents for letting them look like they don't have an ass big enough to hold up their pants. Either that, they look like they rolled in flour before they painted their hair black and punched each other in the eyes. Or they decided they wanted to have rainbow hair and look like they lost themselves in a bad Cure video

Its too difficult for some

No...where is it?

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Funny that our head coach with the current #1 recruiting class said what people have been getting crucified for saying in the uniform thread for years.

Which people?

The uniform is a gray jersey, this is has been talked about for weeks now.

The "uniform changes" are tweaks and are subtle. We're not going Oregon here.

He's certainly not saying what the "We gotta be like Oregon" people have been saying.
