May 25, 20187 yr 99 days until kickoff #99 Tommy Jeter (What a great defense- current Yoakum HC Bo Robinson and Lance Gunn also shown)
May 25, 20187 yr We should start a retro trend by going back to those uniforms..Actual burnt orange, giant shoulder pads, small helmet, stick up hip pads..EVVVVVRYTHING!

May 25, 20187 yr Real burnt orange ftw. Fuck this gay ass neon shit we wear now. Switching back to our old colors would yield an additional 3-4 wins per year. Guaranteed.

May 28, 20187 yr Can someone explain why we ever got away from Burnt Orange?I've heard it was because the brighter Orange "pops" more on HD tv's, but don't know if that's the official stance of the AD or simply something that happened over time. iirc, there is "burnt orange" and then "Texas Orange", and I think we're using the latter. Who knows, we may be so used to the brighter color now that real burnt Orange would look too dull or brown...but I'm willing to give it a shot. On any given game day you can spot at least 5 different shades of orange in the stands/on the field, apparently it's a hard color to nail down.
May 28, 20187 yr Not really. There is an official burnt orange that is defined by the color palette on the UT web site.

They started with those dry fit patches on the front of the jerseys that looked weird, and I'm guessing they just couldn't stop themselves.

Funnily enough I have a Nike Dri-Fit that's a good burnt orange. But yeah, it's apparently really tricky to get right on synthetic fabrics.
May 28, 20187 yr I have a Nike Dri-Fit coaches polo from around the 2014 season that's as close to true burnt orange as I've had in a long time.

May 29, 20187 yr You must sweat a lot to achieve that true burnt orange color. It’s also in the “you are a bad guy” territory, urine-wise.
