Do y'all remember the first 'black-out attempt' in Sanford? It was an attempt to honor Dooley as he retired after 40 yrs at UGA (2003) and the fans wore black in his honor - a shot at Adams of sorts as well.

I've always thought the best time for a 'black-out' would be Sr. Day as it could/would accomplish 3 things:

1) Start a new tradition for Sr.'s and a mention of Dooley as well
2) Take care of the yearly 'black-out' talk
3) Keep the crowd in if for the 'Kentucky' type game at the end of the year

We'd be doing away with speculation and negativity surrounding black-outs the players would get their wish to wear black.

We still have the best uniform in college but straying for one game again at the end of the year isn't a bad thought...

Go Dawgs!!

Not a bad idea really.

Is it September yet?

Seriously though, will this ever go away? It's 2014 and the black uni's were cool, but damn, isn't there some real Georgia sports discussion to be had?

1) I always wear a black polo on gameday.

2) I remember being at the game and students trying to organize the blackout for Dooley. (Personally I didn't care that he left.)

3) I'm all for wearing black uniforms and what not.
