Why have we not gotten an official look? Is it some sort of double secret probation? Where are you #hailstate!
I "Liked" your take cuz I feel ya. But maybe this time let's let the youngsters make the call who knew The Pirate. I have no idea what they will be wearing but I'm pumped for this game and want the win BAD. I gotta feelin' the whole country will be pullin' for us. I almost feel sorry for IL but naw, I wanna win big and whip their a$$. I still need to find a reason to hate IL. Searching.As I said a week or so ago.
We are the BULLDOGS.
Our colors are Maroon and White.
We aren’t Pirates and our colors for damn sure aren’t black and silver.
Honor Coach Leach!
Remember Coach Leach!
In a couple of of different classy and respectful ways but we don’t change our whole 17-ing identity.
I don’t get why most can’t grasp this!
Ok...we will get off your lawn.As I said a week or so ago.

I don’t understand why some people are so against us wearing black jerseys for the bowl game. We wear black jerseys in baseball and basketball all the time. I wouldn’t be opposed to black jerseys, but I would be ok if we wore our regular uniforms too as long as we had a pirate flag or some other Leach inspired logo on the helmets.Some things are bigger than what color we wear in one game. It's not as if our baseball team didn't wear black & white quite a lot in the past. I hope we have a classy, meaningful way to honor Mike Leach and one that perhaps gives his family whatever joy they may get from it, regardless of color.
It’s one damn game in a pirate themed stadium. Nobody’s suggesting we change the team name.As I said a week or so ago.

It's supposed to be 82 in Tampa on Monday. I'd prefer we wear all white with a Maroon helmetI don’t understand why some people are so against us wearing black jerseys for the bowl game.

Because I 17ing hate black jerseys for us in any sport.I don’t understand why some people are so against us wearing black jerseys for the bowl game.

Yeah I wouldn't care if we wore black as a tribute to Leach for ONE GAME. However there has been ridiculous suggestions on a number of occasions over the past weeks... such as a Jolly Roger permanently at DWS and so on. A "pump the brakes" is warranted occasionally.It’s one damn game in a pirate themed stadium. Nobody’s suggesting we change the team name.
I actually don’t think a permanent tribute to Leach is a bad thing, even if it is a flag. This was a Head Coach that died while he was still Head Coach.Yeah I wouldn't care if we wore black as a tribute to Leach for ONE GAME.

And instead of “State” in the bowl game endzone, it better 17ing say “Leach.”If the team isn’t wearing black with State on the front, matching Leach’s sweatshirt, the powers that be failed. That’s the perfect and most logical way to honor the coach. It was his “uniform” every game. We can dedicate 1 game matching his routine and honoring him.

So we fly a Jolly Roger with “LEACH” under it or something to that effect. What’s the big deal?
Didn't the baseball team wear black on Sundays a couple of years ago, I think Mangum's last year?Because I 17ing hate black jerseys for us in any sport.
I assume you mean permanent memorials. Seems like a miss by the athletic department if that’s true.We have not done any memorials for active players that died while on roster and in school.
Yes, Mangum used to say “we don’t lose in Sunday blacks”.Didn't the baseball team wear black on Sundays a couple of years ago, I think Mangum's last year?
They’ve posted the uniforms all season on Friday or Saturday morning so we probably won’t see anything on what they’ll wear until Sunday night or Monday morning first thing.Why have we not gotten an official look? Is it some sort of double secret probation? Where are you #hailstate!
Exactly…100’s of Chinese kids are furiously sewing this **** together as we type.They’ve posted the uniforms all season on Friday or Saturday morning so we probably won’t see anything on what they’ll wear until Sunday night or Monday morning first thing.
Sunday Nickel BlacksYes, Mangum used to say “we don’t lose in Sunday blacks”.
They’ll never make it on time. That shipping is a real *****Exactly…100’s of Chinese kids are furiously sewing this **** together as we type.
Good.....and get off mine as well.Ok...we will get off your lawn.
You’ve already forgotten Nick Bell??We have not done any memorials for active players that died while on roster and in school.
hell it better not have a &TATE logo on itYou're going to be disappointed
I seem to recall we painted something on the field for Rodney Stowers in 1991-2 and we also had Keffer McGee's initials on our helmets in 1997.You’ve already forgotten Nick Bell??
Black Stripe on the 36 yard line, helmet stickers, Simmons wore #36, Nick‘s mom on the 36-yard line ringing a cowbell.
Danmmm we have some short sighted fans…
I still need to find a reason to hate IL. Searching.
Oh Hell YEA!! It's ON!!! LMAO. Thank You Sir.Big 10 Conference
No real rivalry game (Northwestern presumably)
Revenge for the shutout beat down they put on us in 1923
Rubber game match up (1-1 all time)
Have colors similar to Auburn
Politically incorrect nickname
Average team like MSU (~.500 all time) so we need to separate ourselves from mediocrity
Chicago
Democrats
Weather
etc.
etc.
Lower your expectations. Preparing alternate unis isn't nearly as simple as you seem to think.If the team isn’t wearing black with State on the front, matching Leach’s sweatshirt, the powers that be failed. That’s the perfect and most logical way to honor the coach. It was his “uniform” every game. We can dedicate 1 game matching his routine and honoring him.
