Got told no to purple (trust me I tried!), but we were going to do a third, a true '84 throwback for a 40th anniversary night and give them to alums of that team after the game, but unfortunately Nike stripped the design until it lost most of its character, so we sadly dropped it pic.twitter.com/zpkyvKkKgS
Wow the third purple one was dumbed down by Nike. It must have been way overdone for them to do that. They do some wild designs at times.
Apparently Nike didn’t want to support the collar and the number location near the Nike Swoosh. Also something problematic about the color section on the sleeves. So mostly a manufacturing driven problem.
when visiting teams would drive their busses onto Riggs Field and park between the aluminum bleachers and the Quad, we wore white jerseys with black stripes, lettering, and numbers and orange jerseys with black stripes, lettering, and numbers. At least they're using actual school colors now.
