If this means being thumped by good SEC teams in football, probably something UT should avoid.

Damn thats sad. I remember Tennessee when they were a great program. Now they are on the level with Miss State and Vanderbilt.

I like the idea and for those that think Tennessee isn't going to become elite again are just kidding themselves. Some of you said the same thing about Bama

Apples to oranges. Bama went and got the best coach in the country to come back. UT is resorting to throwing away tradition to look like an arena football team, which will piss off 85% of the fanbase.

I don't think it's really a big deal tbh. It is a much bigger deal in SEC football to have "traditional uniforms" than most other sports leagues. Having a bunch of different uniforms is fine with me if the players like it.

I guess it can be taken over the top, but hard to judge until we see what they're wearing.

Cant attract attention by winning, so you try to create a buzz by wearing crazy uniforms combinations. Tennessee used to be above this, but I guess you have to do what you have to do

I don't think it affects anything on the field which is all I care about.

I was not a fan of the adidas grays we wore this year, but that was just because they didn't look good, not because I want us to look the same as we did in the 1920s.

Yep. When you are as bad as we have been lately, I will take anything that helps us gain an edge.
