Hopson wants a blackout for Kansas game.

Kansas would be a perfect game for a black out. So what if the seats are black?

But but Griff.. What are you doing taking Scotty's mind off of basketball??? According to dantheman Scotty can't answer a question and think about basketball at the same time.

Not against Kansas. Your more likely to receive a black eye, instead of a black jersey in that game. Personally, if I were UT and was going to entertain the idea, I would do it against UK or Florida.

Multiple highly-ranked teams have lost in TBA during the Pearl era. But, I do agree that you don't want to lose the first game in black.

more black jerseys..hell yes

[governmentmule]

since there is black seats in TBA and with black uniforms, would you be able to see the UT players ?




I would tell them if you get to the Sweet 16,we will break them out

[VOLnVEGAS]

Why not. We need payback. Whatever fires them up.

[KCVol14]

afraid we're going to need more than a gimmick to beat Kansas.

If we're going to actually wear black/have a "blackout" this year, then it should be up to the team what game it's for. And if it goes well, let the team pick a game next year to wear black.

You might be able to notice Steven Pearl for a change.

I thought you had to wear white at home.

I think they changed it so that if the other team agrees, then you can wear your dark uniforms at home.

Heck I'd love to start a new tradition where we wear orange (or black now I guess) at home. I've never understood the whole "white at home" thing, other than in football when it's really hot and it gives you a bit of an advantage to wear the lighter color.
