How badass would this be??

Let's bring back New Coke and Betamax players while we're at it.

anyone have any good 8 tracks they want to trade?

Rule #1

Umm face, it's clear pepsi. we no longer speak of coke in these parts. bb is watching

but with a white or gray face mask.

YEP!

other than the fact that the kid wearing it looks like he's 12, i actually kind of like it.

Actually you're thinking of Crystal Gravy

I assumed you meant these:

thats it

I don't know why its on a 12 year old.

I've wanted them for years-would really set us apart from the rest.

jersey sales would explode, it would be such an iconic look for us, not to mention they just look badass. How can we make this happen?

Yes to the stripes that run from the neck to the end of the sleeve like we wore in the 70's in the Emory Ballard era. No to the stripes that go around the bicep like a million other teams. The long stripes would be to our uniforms what a solid gold helmet is to Notre Dame's uniforms...it would set us apart. I think we quit using the long strips in the Tom Wilson era so we could have numbers on the arms. I vote for the long stripes. BB & MS, please do this. It would be cool if they could wear them in the Cotton Bowl. I keep hearing about "branding" and about tu having a great brand. This would bring back a great brand we never should have lost.

There is another thread posted recently called War in Texas: 1975. If you go to that thread you will see a video of the Aggies beating tu while wearing the long stripe jerseys. Really cool.

Does anybody know Bill or Mike's email address so we can make this suggestion. The more I think of it, I like the idea. Talking about "brands" we are known for traditions. The old long stripe jerseys are actually a carryover from the leather helmet and no face mask days. How more appropriate could they be?

Bring back Surge.

I'm glad someone made an official thread for this. I have been sorting through all of the threads on this topic and just couldn't decide which one to post on.

Last of the Old Army

Yeah, them there are the finest uniforms in college football history.

I say bring them back!!

Much better than the ugly ones the team wore this year.

Have you seen a football jersey in the past five years? Nobody has actual sleeves anymore.

Although I agree that those unis were far better than the current shrink-wrap crud Adidas is pumping out now.

I LOVED the jerseys with the stripes down the shoulders! When they lined up, you didn't know whether the Aggies would win, but you sure knew the other team would be spending some time in the whirlpool.

Wiz on Texas...

Striped uni's are cool...

Adidas has a stripe motif. Coincidence?

The 1975-type jersey is easily my all-time favorite. Nothing else comes close. Why not make an updated version of that?

Let's get the 1900 unis in!

Not only do the shoulder pads look like they'd have some cool brown-leather to them (at least in color today), but how about the mismatching socks!

Seriously though, those would be sick throwbacks.
