It depends, as a kid/teeneager they will always love alternate uniforms. Grownups are different, but me as a kid i was pumped yesterday when i saw the jerseys

This.

All the old farts who whined about the black jerseys now have a good reason to STFU.

CLK said it was pretty much a last minute thing. I bet after the huge response and the way the fans went nuts, they will have a design for a black uni including a black helmet with the orange power T!!

not really. I understand their purpose but I won't go out and buy one. I thought the color combo was iffy at best. And if the big money boosters don't like them (they don't) then it won't happen again. THere aren't any HS boosters

Wow... so people have to shut their mouth because it's their opinion that they didn't like the way the jersey looked? If it helps with recruiting, that's great but people referring to other as haters and telling them to shut their mouth though... Those people need to take a long hard look at their life. If you can't handle someones opinion on apparel then I don't know what to tell you. Sorry that I don't follow the herd. I like to think for myself.

And, I am not even old. I am 23. I didn't dislike them because of Tennessee's history and tradition. I disliked them because white helmet, black jersey and orange pants are a hideous combo.

Sorry for being a hater. I guess I will shut up now because some people on here seem to think there is such a thing as a correct opinion and you have to believe it just because they do.

I am amazed there are so many talking about them being ugly, they were orange and black, it was Halloween. They obviously energized the crowd and the team. Boo!!!!

That's why I didn't care for them. I think the black jersey itself didn't look bad but the combo... yikes.

I don't think this will be like the Univ of Louisville when they went black jersey happy and wore them just about every game. These will only be worn for very special occasions like playing a Saturday game on halloween.

There is a lot of these teeny-weenies on here that have no taste, no style, and nothing for tradition. Remember, most of the ones wanting the black jerseys are the ones you see walking down the street with there pants down past their ass, hat on sideways, and enough gold in there mouth they need to be carried around in a Loomis truck.

It created the desired effect. In warm-ups in the orange and then coming out in black. It was hard to look at for the whole game but the initial excitement was cool. Like Kiffin said to Erin. It is a players game.

Hopefully. If they do it again, they should at least wear black or white pants. I don't want to see the helmets changed. Black or white pants would be no less orange than the all white road jerseys. Too bad that wouldn't really make them home jerseys anymore though with lack of orange.

This old fart liked the black for Halloween. I would still hate to see it any other time. Besides, you want it to be rare or it will not e a big deal. :)
