New Uniforms Revealed

[cyclones500]

I'm in the category of people who think we should have gold helmet and pants.

At this point, I don't even want to push it to be the primary look. But not having either one as an option seems like an oversight.

Maybe Campbell doesn't like the gold crown or pants. I can't remember all the combos Toledo had when he was there, so I can't base anything on that.

I don't want gold. Too much like the Hawkeyes

Also the real reason Campbell left Toledo is they could only get UA to give them gray alternates, but never black!!

Have never been a fan of all yellow/gold. Looks terrible in both football and basketball. Can live with gold trim/text/lids/pants, but not tops and bottoms at the same time.

Looks better under the lights, IMO. Would be great for a "Golden Rules" theme. Would come in handy verses other teams that feature a lot of red in their uniforms like OU.

Campbell hates gold. As long as he is at ISU, I doubt there will be any gold elements of the uniforms.

Thanks! Saved me some keystroke-research.

I really like that gold-blue-blue combo.

Here's what Toledo wore last night vs. Ball State. Not a huge fan of it, probably would look better w/ white helmets with the white pants. (This photo isn't the best view of it).

But notice the colored side-stripes/accents on both sets of pants? All it takes is a coordinating stripe to tie ANY combination together. The Ball St accent is well done. But even Toledo should have had a touch of yellow somewhere on them (other than peeing themselves).

Seems like I've heard about his dislike of gold on CF several times, but I'm not aware of when he openly revealed that anywhere. Does anyone have even informal documentation of it?

If he doesn't like gold, even if he used some gold combos at UT, it wasn't his personal choice. I have no evidence of that, just speculation.

Many years ago, seems like I read how McCarney had said he'd never use gold pants (and his teams never did, as far as I recall). Is there any truth to him saying that?

I agree, having a gold stripe on Toledo's wahit pants (it could even be thin) would help tie it together. Or, if there were white elements in the helmet and jersey, the all-white pant wouldn't look so mismatched.

I think people are more basing it off the fact that he only used the gold pants once in 2016 and never in 2017.

Is it just me or do these uniform hype videos kinda suck? Always really dark and you don't get a shot of the entire uniform. Maybe it's just this week's video but this seems to be a problem for me each week.

They are trying to be subtle and sly.

That would be yellow, not gold. And some of the images got even yellower.

Got a source? Maybe add one where he professes his love for Black while your at it too. Seems strange to me, being at a school where the colors are Cardinal and Gold that you "Hate" Gold, but love black. I for one would love to know how everyone gets so much first hand knowledge from CMC. And how I score that dinner invite?

 

[Sigmapolis]

Our gold is awesome. Period.

Do you really need to go further than we have a black option and not a gold option for uniforms?

I do have a source, yes. You don't have to believe me, and that's fine.

Well actually Yeah, that there is just a whole lot of assuming there. I mean, the trend for most colleges is to have Black out alternates, so are we to assume the coaches of all those schools hate their colors and love black all around the country? Or it is a current trend?
Not having a Gold version could be just that, the 3 current versions is all they wanted this year, guessing anything else without actual knowledge is just baseless assumptions.
