Considering they said the only changes would be to the cleats, gloves, and socks I'll go with that being the gloves.



i respect your opinion HG, but based on what XXXXX just told me on the phone, it won't be just accessories

oh and before some fricktard brings it up:


Uniforms have never, ever, not once, swayed a recruits decision. That is a myth.


Except for ALL the time now.

But other than that, no, never.

You're right. It's not the world class facilities Oregon has, it's not the exciting offense, it's not the fact that they are title contenders year in and year out, it's the uniforms.

I'm a recent HS grad and I know several players who are playing FBS ball. And uniforms have absolutely nothing to do with a recruits decision. You can believe whatever the hell you want to believe, but the truth is most of these guys are not dumb 18 year olds who only choose a school because OOOO SHINY.

When I refer to recruits who are swayed by this kind of thing, I'm only referring to good ones.

The kind that I spoke with here.

And I didn't say that uniforms, helmets, gloves, etc. are the only thing that matters, but they are increasingly important element. In Oregon's case those elements come along with Phil Knights full package of facilities and services. But I guarantee you that Chip Kelly will NEVER say no to Nike.

We shouldn't either.

Please don't let it be a giant Tiger head on each side of the helmet like Missouri's headgear against Georgia. Those helmets were like an ink blot test. As in, "What does this shape look like to you?"

You don't see Bama or USC changing their helmets! Stay distinctive and unique rather than joining the crowd as Nike Sheep!

Keep your eye on USC next few seasons, amazing what losing a few scholarships will change.

A) It ain't gonna happen
B) You fricking idiots who think changing the uniform to something "badass" should find another team.
