| Best Orange Blazer?
My offseason threads need to get some credit. What about last year's "If Bruce Pearl and Pat Summitt had a child..." thread.
This year's is 'who's got the greatest orange blazor?' Which one set the tone.
Ray Mears 
Pat Summitt 
Bruce Pearl  |

| I don't know if it is the pictures, but Bruce's is much more Tennessee Orange. | |

| Ray Mears had the pants to accentuate the blazer, so my vote is for Mears | |

. . .speaking of sporting Tennessee orange duds. . .does anyone know where I can find a solid Tennessee Orange dress shirt? I don't want a plaid one, just the correct shade of light orange. I have seen them on the net, I believe at Vol Planet, but they only have XL. I need a Lg.
Hope someone can help!
Thanks and GO VOLS!!!!  Beat UCLA!

| If Pearl would wear the plaid pants and the orange blazer together -- he would be awesome. The plaid pants are what make the whole outfit. With his personality, he'd be selling the program by virtue of dressing in "costume" | |

Thanks and GO VOLS!!!! Beat UCLA! | I know at Ralph Lauren's web site you can customize a plain polo shirt and they do have a UT shade, but I don't know if you can do the long sleeve dress shirts that way. | |

| Mears is the Godfather of Orange. And it was more orange back in the day. The colors have just faded over 30 plus years.
