Black Jerseys are overrated. Last time I checked, it got Georgia spanked by Alabama.

Orange is the best color anyways.
 
I am hearing that Lane is already talking to Adidas about a black jersey for the Vols!

I certainly hope he's not wasting any valuable recruiting time on something so silly. Orange jersey w/ white pants at home, and white jesey with orange pants and no black number outlines on the road, just like in the early 90's.
 
Saw the helmet stickers thread. my vote would be no.

Name on Jerseys. I can't help but like that because obviously its easier to distinguish the players.
 
I like jersey names. I think the Penn St jerseys are just boring with no name.
 
This crap about "not being about the player, it's about the team" is about the dumbest defense for no names on the jersey.

It carries absolutely no relevance come game day. The only team that has won a natl championship in the last 10 years without the name on their jersey was USC. The fact is that a team with good coaching, talent, and chemistry plays best as a "TEAM", not the one with or without a name on the jersey. SEE ND

I say keep em.

I want people to know who Berry is next year without having to figure out what number he is...Although i don't think it would take them long. :)
 
How about this... Instead of doing away with the names alltogether, do this on everyone's jersey just for the season opener. If it is a big hit, do it again next year. KaPow! Instatradition. Or if you like do it against a rival. How bout against a team that you have a losing streak against? When the losing streak agianst that team ends, give their named Jerseys back to them to defend next year. It could be like the axe, egg or peacepipe except there would be no trophy for the other team, just for our team. Your name. I like that.

Someone might actually like this idea if it weren't for my 3rd grade computer graphic

the equipment managers would find a way to screw that one up!

Sweet rendition on the uni:rofl:
 
I'm for taking the names off and replacing it with "TENNESSEE VOL", or just "TENNESSEE" or only "VOLUNTEER".
 
Here's an angle. Keep the names. But when another player has the same last name drop the first initial. I think that's ridiculous and starting to look like a row in a spreadsheet. Last name only in black.

Second, no stickers on the helmets. Middle schoolish.

Third. Change the "sporting goods store iron on font" on the numbers! Maybe radical (Miami / UCLA) is not needed, but something attractive would look nice. Those cheap block letters need to go.

JMO. :whistling:
 
Maybe use something like the OSU grading deal. If you grade above 85% or 90% you get your name on your jersey the next week. That would be incentive, who wants to be one of the only ones that doesn't have his name on......peer pressure would be great. If you grade out use your name. If you don't make the grade leave it blank.
