Uniforms

Those are awful IMO. There were major complaints from TV, media, and fans about not being able to read names and numbers, and were not well received on the recruiting trail.

they were popular when the throwback style was popular a few years ago

throwbacks are old now, and the style moves on

I don't recall a time when the "throwbacks" were in style...now our jerseys just look like any other teams except with orange and white. At least those stand out...

I am pretty sure those were the throwback uniforms that they wore for the 75th anniversary of the SEC. All the teams had a throwback uniform that they wore a few time during the season and during the SEC Tournament.

The 75th Anniversary was what? 2008? CJ Watson had graduated by 2008, IIRC.

Bring 'em back!!! They look like the ole West. They should come back for a game or two every season, like the black jersey in football for SC.

For some reason I was thinking it had to do with the anniversary but it did not. It was the 2005-2006 season, which was Watson's senior year. It was a league thing but it had nothing to do with the 75th anniversary. They only wore them for like a week during the season and the SEC Tournament It was supposed to look like these uniforms from the mid 70s. I do like the ways these look. Wish they could something more like this at least once or twice a year.

I like the old school ones too. The uniforms during the Houston era were my favorite, even though his teams weren't the best.

Actually, those uniforms CJ is wearing were our normal unis for about a year and a half towards the end of the Buzz era. The throwback week unis were later in his career and early in the Pearl era. They had blue in them while the ones shown in this thread did not.

Yep, those unis at the beggining were during the Buzz years. They were kind of in the throwback style and had all black trim removed. I personally hated them.

The official throwback did have some blue trim in them. We wore them at Alabama the year they did them and got romped.

I wouldn't mind having my own jersey made in that style...:p

And I've never been one of those guys you see at UT games sporting jerseys of their favorite players...:)
