Jeff Long got us in a Nike contract that made us change jerseys every year. Glad we’re back to our classic look. And maybe now people won’t recognize us in highlights from the last 5 years..


Ole Miss has been with Nike forever and we have kept the same look. Nike should let you guys too. It was probably Long's doing with all the change-ups.

You speak the truth. The current AD seems to understand it too and is slowly getting us back to tradition.

You guys got your alternates and permanents mixed up somewhere along the Bobby Petrino/Jeff Long era. Your alternates need to be your permanents and vice versa.

It's that dumb frick Jeff Long's fault.

Apparently the contract with Nike goes one more year for last years uniform, so this is an "alternate" but we are expected to wear them for every home game.
Next year we will get white ones and finally get rid of those fricking Bert era trash uniforms.


Why would Nike give a shite which uniform we choose? How can we not get what we want?

Because of the rebranding by that dumbass Jeff Long and in the contract we agreed to those unis for a certain amount of years.

Slobber Hog is a classic. It should be there, always.

I hate homogenization of "branding" to the degree it went under Jeff Long. They totally fricked our baseball uniforms, too.

The one thing about our baseball program I absolutely can't stand. The sleeve stripe is so stupid.

I’m not a fan of Pepsi over Coke but Jeff Long had zero to do with it as it was a university wide switch. It being Long’s fault is nothing more than a message board rumor gone viral.
