This is what he is talking about. Maybe I am misunderstanding you laugh emoji?

I tend to like to leave our current uniforms alone, but his wish is a legit thing.

Again....my apologies if I am taking your emoji wrong.

I'm not the one you replied to, but I think all (or most ) of us knew abotu the helmet in question that you pictured. I think his emoji was more so because it would not look very good.

I'm ok with some tweaks here and there so the color scheme of our overall uniform, but the helmet should never be altered, IMO. There's a lot you can do with red/black/white/silver when it comes to the jerseys and the pants, but the helmet needs to stay red.

I think we have different definitions of "gripe" and "nitpick". I think it would be a dumb gripe, but a perfect nitpick. Nitpick is more trivial. Gripe is something larger and legitimate, like the stadium concessions for example.


I guess. I think my point was more so that everythin else in this thread, in a perfect pie in the sky scenario where we're the athletic director, CAN be changed. Concessions, jerseys, wifi, etc...all of those are easily fixable by people in charge. We can't jsut "fix" not having a 1K yard receiver. It's not like we aren' tryin to recruit elite WRs and it's not like we run the ball 50 times a game. It just hasn't happened.

That can be updated to a really cool retro uniform, don't mind mixing it up occasionally and the kids love it. I still like red pants. Like I said, distressed chrome with stylized block G would be badass.

Would also like to see all whites for early season hot games.

Helps sell more merch and again players and recruits love it or we would not constantly see pics of recruits wearing alternative unis.

If we're gonna get funky with uniforms, I'd love to see:

-First away game (or game away from Sanford) each year wear the 2020 Arkansas uni, but wiht a smaller pant stripe.
-Last home game of each season wear the black tops
-Every other game be normal

Honestly would like to wear all white to Texas. Not that Georgia isn't plenty hot, but it will be 110 at kickoff there.

1 Stadium - the concrete stair towers should have at minimum large banners on them if not a decorative facade. They are fugly.

2 Red - Why do they allow licensed products in the wrong color of red??

3- already vented about screwing long term season ticket holders and how the money over everything approach and admission policies will eventually cause the (loyal) fan base to decrease.

4- Concessions - They make them way harder than they need to. Now add beer..gonna be a mess.

Gave you a twofer two

How exactly are they hard to get? stand in line, get your items, then go pay. How is that difficult? Have never had an issue in any form. Is it standing in line? Because there is nothing hard about picking what you want.

3). Every time Jeff and Kevin Butler are done with their portion of the pre-game show and kick it to Hondo, I immediately turn it off. Nothing personal against Hondo and he seems like a DGD and someone who has done a lot for the university, but I just can't stand his hosting style and the sound of his voice.

Hondo is basically like a whacky midwest FM DJ, full of cornball jokes and quips. The only thing missing at this point is sound effects and clown noises. Hondo is seriously a drag on the gameday experience.

4) Our secondary color is black, but the only black on our entire helmet is the G. I say bring back the Kirby-era helmets, which was Donnan's greatest accomplishment aside from beating Florida that one time.

The guy who did the laughing emoji is an insufferable little turd. I always enjoyed looking at old pics of those uniforms.

I do agree with you. I mean, if people wanted to do a throwback uniform, that would probably be a decent option. I prefer our current uniforms, though, and don't necessarily back a throwback type of thing.

To be honest when I played the colors of the uniform did not affect me as much as the material used. I never noticed colors affecting me that much and never heard any of the other players talk about it.

I just find it funny people are nitpicking about terminology in a nitpicking thread

Volunteers and kids staffing them that are different each week and don’t know what they are doing.

With the biggest issue being long lines because of their inefficiency and quantity of locations per fan.

^^^Looks sharper than the light gray football pants we have now. If Nike can't produce real silver britches, I say then just go to the whites.
