This!!! I wish everything had stayed the same since 1940! 99.99% of the changes since then have been terrible and ruined this country.

I agree. We should never have let all those hispanics in the country.

Everybody keeps saying the new "cool" unis wil make recruits want to come to Tennessee. If the guy is simple minded enough to make his decision regarding what school to go to based on uniform colors is he mentally astute enough to help us out on the field?

They're 18, squirrel.

As long as we win, you shouldn't care if we wear an alternate.

If the players are happy, you should be happy, because happy players are productive players.

I really hate to say it Voxx, but the players are choosing to come to Tennessee as we are. They will be gone in four years or less. The University of Tennessee will still be here after they have left. Traditions need not, nor should not, be changed on the whim of new players or an unproven coach.

Yes - using one of the officials colors of the school - PMS 426 - is equal to changing our Mascot and Name.

Where are YOU people getting this from? I would like to find out more about this. Why is this the first we are seeing of this OFFICIAL color?

So you're saying the new unis will make us win? Can't wait for that to happen.

There's an idea. Change the mascot while we're at it. Maybe, we could get something like Pilot Pete in honor of the ever honest Haslam who contributes heavily.

I think this is well said. However, I do like the new alternate unis.

You realise that a lot of football players are pretty damn simple minded, right? Go check out CoreDayrles Wonderlick score if you need a reference point.

The undefeated 1914 team wore grey more than one game a season. That sounds like tradition to me. The grey is even an official UT color.

I promise you it wasn't a "whim." It's a coach motivating his team and marketing his program. It is Butch Jones' program, like it or not, and will be for at least the next three years.

He knows how to sell it, if nothing else.

Look numbnuts, right now the best players are going to Alabama. Are they going because of the new trendy uniforms or because they're winning a boatload of national titles?

Tell me, squirrel. What should we be doing?

It's not Butch Jone's school, though. It'll still be here after his time is up.
