Should Basketvols Wear Grey?

I personally think we can pull off a black jersey with the orange better than it would look on football jerseys.

Yes. I have 2 different styles of older black jerseys, and they look a lot better than the grey alternate that was going around circa 2007.

That'll be something to see. Have a black out game against Florida if we play them at home. Or a smoke out game but a couple of our past players may take smoke out for a different meaning.

Something to think about though.

I'm not linking it because I'm on mobile, but Quinn wrote a piece on an interview with CCM where he said he's going to be talking with the Adidas reps about making a gray alternate uniform. Said he would like to do it if him and the team liked their design.

You mean like the link bleeding put up an hour ago, only about 10 posts prior to yours, in this very same thread, that we were commenting on?

My high school runs the orange/white UT colors basically (slightly different but really hard to tell)

My junior year in basketball we did black and orange practice jerseys, and they were positively badass, and that was with little to no investment in them. It was enough we asked to wear them in games and the coach wouldn't let us.

I couldn't imagine what a school could pull off if they tried...

Martin has turned aside alternative uniforms from Adidas in the past, including a camouflage get-up that he immediately shot down last offseason. He says any uniform must be “a combination of classic with tradition and a little flavor.”

That's whats up. Those would be some ugly-ass uniforms.

Your over 40 crowd will collectively say no. Your under 40 crowd will mostly be in favor of them.

Stop stereotyping. I'm about to join the over 60 crowd and I love the smokey gray uniforms. Long overdue. Now, bring on the smokey gray B-Ball uniforms and the smokey gray football helmets with an orange strip and Power T. It's time!

Good grief. Quit b!tching. Obviously I didn't say every single person over 40 absolutely hates them, and every single person under 40 is over the moon for them.

If you (and the other handful who have responded in like fashion) can't read between the lines of my statement and it's intent, then I can't help you.

Are you really so passionate about the issue that it warranted bumping this thread a week later to take exception to my intentionally generalized statement?

Love those monochrome unis.

I loved them too, but I think they may be illegal this year. I know the NCAA changed the rules about numbers on football uniforms -- they must now be one solid color which contrasts with the primary uniform color. I think this applies to other sports as well, but not 100% certain.

That would be very disappointing.
