not a huge fan of the purple jerseys, but i do think the away jersey that are white with purple trim are pretty sharp. helmet absolutely has to stay orange, non of this random stuff other schools are doing now.

use the purple jerseys for road games


Sep 29, 2013, 7:02 PM

when we play GT or anyone else who wants to wear white at home. Other wise lets stay with the orange top and white britches for home games. Wear the Orange brithches only about once every few years.

Re: use the purple jerseys for road games

I read on a previous post that our original colors were yellow and purple. That makes sense, since those colors are complimentary. Orange and purple... not so much. You really can't improve on orange and white.

Watching the Broncos play today, I couldn't help but notice how our uniforms look wayyyy better than theirs.

that we'll wear orange and white - doesn't like purple.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

For some reason historically we go through bad or shaky eras


Sep 29, 2013, 10:55 PM

when we use the purple. 70's, early 90's under Hatfield, Bowden era upsets. I don't even like to see the fans wearing purple. Lets stick with the Boss Orange and White. Thank you Dabo!

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Aren't they wearing purple against the Citadel?


Sep 30, 2013, 3:27 AM [ in reply to Address this to DS but he's stated definitely...... ]

It'd be stupid to have a purple out and try to convince everyone to wear purple but have the team themselves not wear purple.

He's never said he didn't like purple. He said he prefers the more traditional orange and white. But he's said purple jerseys are not ruled out.

He has?

http://www.tigernet.com/story/football/Dabo-weighs-uniform-debate-11047

"Swinney told TigerNet Wednesday evening that the records have nothing to do with why he chooses the uniforms that he chooses, and that purple would be an option at some point in the future. However, the reason he took the decision away from the players was because he felt it was becoming a distraction for a team that needed focus.

“We will wear purple again at some point,” Swinney said. “I really felt like it was a distraction, and I don’t want our uniforms to be a distraction. We have more to worry about than having guys coming in and saying, ‘Hey what are we wearing?’ I don’t have time for that. Let’s focus on the game.”"

Re: I like the orange tops with purple pants...***


Sep 29, 2013, 10:33 PM

I think our athletic programs (and I already am) should replace the purple with black and market the stripe as well as the paw. (and probably more so)

Clemson is one of the teams that is fortunate enough to actually have a mascot that has a stripe, and for some reason chooses to use a purple stripe? (when tigers have a black stripe)

My guess is that was a decision made by Barker and the BOT, but I think the black stripe makes a lot more sense. (for a lot of reasons)

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

huh?


Sep 29, 2013, 10:45 PM

reading this gave me a headache. anyway i am pretty sure barker is not worrying much about marketing black stripes, or whatever your point was....

Sep 29, 2013, 10:47 PM [ in reply to Re: I like the orange tops with purple pants...*** ]

I say solid white helmets with a black stipe down the middle. (no large paw logos on the sides)

Small paw accomplishment stickers only.

Orange (home) & white (away) jerseys.

Black numbers, collars, sleeves, cleats & socks (in the cooler temps only). Have our jerseys made by Clemson University. (not Nike - and therefore indirectly supporting The University of Oregon's football program)

1 Clemson.

White helmets with black stripes. No paw. No orange.

You're trolling, right?

I do not want the black on the unis but I would like to see


Sep 29, 2013, 11:08 PM [ in reply to Re: I like the orange tops with purple pants...*** ]

the purple taken out of the stadium (Scoreboard background, all signage painted with a black background and orange or white lettering) and use Orange and White. Just don't care for purple/orange combo unless its Halloween.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Re: I do not want the black on the unis but I would like to see


Sep 30, 2013, 9:20 AM

So you only like orange/purple at halloween? When Halloween's colors are orange/black? That makes sense.

But we should replace the boards from purple to black. Because orange and black make it look like it's NOT Halloween. Right.

Purple as an accent color is fine. Everyone in the world uses black, I'm perferctly fine with us having a unique color scheme (especially when you factor in how much the purple is used in terms of our university seal and other academic-centric branding). Don't have to wear the purple jerseys unless it's for something like the Citadel, or if you're on the road at GT.

i know, burnt orange and northwest purple- but i still think we could have chosen a better secondary color. hey, nobody is perfect. purple was just easier/cheaper to produce in the past.

Everyteam that messes with uniforms goes down hill


Sep 30, 2013, 8:00 AM

except Oregon, but you always have that one freak of nature...
Messing with the unis distracts the players from the game. Its like going into a final exam wearing a designer dress, you get so caught up in your appearance and geting noticed by everyone you forget about the test and flunk it.
Our appearance will come with our wins. People should recognize us by our domination, not by what new, trendy uniform we are wearing.

So, Orange helmets. Orange and white at home (all orange when deserving) and all white on the road.
