knapplc Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 So now the maker of the uniform determines success? I've heard it all. Maybe we could get the Mens Warehouse to do our unis???? Dress for success and all that jazz. I just dropped about $200 at Men's Wearhouse about an hour ago. New ascots? Suspenders and a bow tie. Quote Link to comment

nebraskaart Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Do we need to set up a fashion subforum? What is with all these threads about uniforms? Not so fast Mr. knappic, wasn't that you who brought back a two month old black helmet thread? (: Quote Link to comment
JustaHusker Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Please, just please, let the uniform changes just die. Simpler IS better, AND the Huskers are the Huskers !!!! Quote Link to comment
nebraskaart Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I thought changing our logo to just the 'Huskers' and rarely being referred to as the Cornhuskers was a big change. Never know. Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Bottom line is that the kids today are the techno generation. They have grown up with the internet/facebook/myspace/texting etc........ Uniforms ultimately will not get a kid to school "X", but they do make them, IMHO, more attractive to recruits. At least at first glance. They are flashy and showy with a lot of bling. I have been a Husker fan over 30 yrs. We have not been relevant since 2001. Haven't won the division since 1997, IIRC. A change would put us more in the "media" and get exposure to the kids. It would be a low cost recruiting tool. IMO, our Uni is solid like Bama, PSU, Michigan etc.... It is recognized everywhere. BUT with Wisky, Indiana etc...a different color/scheme would be cool for certain games. The only folks who really like change are babies with dirty diapers. Quote Link to comment

HuskerfaninOkieland Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I was wondering when we were going to have another uniform thread. It's been what....two weeks since the last one? Quote Link to comment

BaytownHusker Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Uniforms have been becoming new, hot, stylish commodities for a few decades now - exactly how many changes have we made to ours in that time? We don't have to change anything if we don't want to. Neither do USC, Penn State, Oklahoma, Texas or any other schools with history and consistency. OU and Texas both have Pro combat unis.. 1 Quote Link to comment
The Snork Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Usually I react violently to any suggestion that we change uniforms. after today's game I thinking yeah ... FORCE THEM TO WEAR DIFFERENT UNIFORMS before they disgrace our classic ones beyond repair. Quote Link to comment
CheeseHusker Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I must admit, my usual extremely contrarian point of view on this is also becoming muddled. If some stupid looking uniform is going to help us actually recruit people who can block, tackle, catch, and not fumble, well, maybe we ought to think about it. Quote Link to comment

Moiraine Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I'm on board with the new uniforms now. I want them to look like My Little Ponies. They can have little glittery N's all over their butts. Quote Link to comment
