[golfballs]

Anyone remember the throwbacks they wore a couple years ago to honor the Bernie and Ernie era? It was while CJ Watson was still on the team. I loved those unis and would love to buy a jersey like that. Anyone know if they ever made those available for sale?

I've heard they will be solid white--no orange, simply to signify the completely clean program Pearl runs.

<sarcasm>Black has NEVER been included in our uniform colors</sarcasm>

[Velo Vol]

When was this in use?

 

[JZVOL]

Weren't UT's first football uniforms black?

 

[SycloneJoe]

When was this in use?

I'm not exactly sure. Sometime in the late 40's/early 50's I think.

I do know we've been using black in our uniforms for at least 99 years.

I hope we wear orange at home this year. I liked it when we did it against Kentucky and we'd kind of be the LSU of basketball, at least with the uniforms.

Stripes?

Perhaps the striped warmups were an early warning sign?

It's still not an official school color.

I believe you're right. I cannot find a Vols helmet that ever looked like that. It looks like they put the wrong helmet in the case.

Personally, I like the 1965 helmet....

The cross was added for Bob Jones, Bill Majors (Johnny's brother), and Charles Rash who were killed when their car was hit by a train.

"Rocky Top" isn't the official fight song, do you want them to stop playing it?
