DeerPark12,an unform question for you? (re:SEC Graduate Patch)

SEC Honors Graduate Student-Athletes

Auburn Uniform Database: SEC Honors Graduate Student-Athletes

Over the weekend, many of the SEC football teams made a minor adjustment to their uniforms. What started by one team at the beginning of the season has spread to a handful. Now, it's easier than ever to spot a player that has already completed their degree.

Arkansas announced right before the season started that they would be honoring their grad student-athletes with this style patch. It took until this past weekend for the entire conference to adopt the modification.

The new patches are simply an addition to the previous SEC-circle patch that has donned conference team jerseys since 2012. The patch has a simple ribbon along the bottom of the circle with "GRADUATE" written across the middle. It's a minor adjustment, but a big honor.

Auburn, Arkansas, Georgia, Mississippi State, South Carolina, and Texas A&M each had at least one player spotted wearing the new patch. I was told that Tennessee wasn't wearing them this weekend, but have also heard rumors that they may be adding them in the future. No players for Alabama, Kentucky nor Vanderbilt were spotted wearing the graduate patch this weekend, but it's still possible they can wear them in the coming weeks.

So DeerPark12 are there any plan for us to do so too?

Yeah I noticed it on Trevor Knight. Not sure why they haven't done it before.

 

[kentucky sucks]

Nobody from Bama graduates so they won't be needing any patches.

If we came out in complete ORANGE including a brand new ORANGE HELMET, I would have to go change my drawers. :crazy:

Yeah, I know, most people never want to see our helmets change.
And, I would only want it for this one game.
But, all ORANGE against all Crimson would be awesome. :rock:
