After watching some old footage, I honestly wish we would go back to the Johnny Majors era orange and white. I loved the away uniforms we used to have with the orange numbers and the additional orange outline around the numbers. Along with that we had the orange pants with the 2 white stripes and white cleats. I think that would look so classy. And then for the home unis it would simply be the reverse. Orange jersey with white numbers, white pants with 2 orange stripes, and orange cleats. No black, no tertiary color of any kind. Just orange and white. Simple, classic.

We changed form that only because the opposing coaches in the box complained about not being able to wee the names and/or numbers on the jerseys. I agree with you though.

That was the best Tennessee uniform of all time. Both road and home. Fulmer had to mess with it because Johnny created it. I will say that Johnny changed the color to a little darker hue of orange, but I like the true Tennessee Orange that we wear on our home jerseys now.
 
Kiffin mentioned that new coaches had to change the culture. Pete Carroll changed USC's uniforms when he got there. CUM tweaked Florida's jerseys in his first year. I think Kiffin will make some very minor changes and still keep a classic look. That being said, I doubt adding black as an official color is on his to-do list.
 
This is what i think our jersey's should be.

Home: Orange jersey, white pant's w/ orange stripe's down the side ( which our our normal home outfit now )

Away: White jersey, orange pant's w/ white stripe's down the side ( ex. UCLA & Auburn game )

Homecoming: Orange jersey, orange pant's with white stripe's



& if we did wear any black uni's it should be one of the two pic's above.


Anyone else agree?

sorta... if we're staying with adidas, why not 3 stripes on sides and sleeves?

What about for SC on Halloween weekend the black pant with orange jersey at home or black pant with orange stripes and a white jersey on the road? Maybe someone could draw that up.......
 
Carrol changed usc's jerseys by moving the stripe higher up on the shoulder and he changed the facemasks from maroon to grey. He pretty much just changed back to the classic jerseys like when OJ played.
 
I just want either Nike or Under Armour. Adidas is garbage remember a few years ago they were having all the problems with the cleats and Adidas had to send a tech down.
 
correct me if im wrong. didnt we have/still have the solid white pants with the power T on the thigh? and the adidas logo adjacent. how about since everyone has a hard on for black, orange home jerseys with absolutely no change and solid black pants with power T on thigh?i dont know about stripes on black it may look odd. i think it'd be sharp with our orange jerseys. i remember when i was younger i always thought thatd be sweet and telling my dad every home game how cool it'd be.
 
Those are some pretty beast uniforms. I don't remember those. Must have been before I really knew what football was. What year was that?

It was in 2002, and you might have forgotten about them because they were such an abomination that as I recall they had to go back to the old look mid-season because so many people hated them.
