Re: White Out

Yesterday on the UNI Athletics Facebook page they put up four options to vote on.

Wow, the paw one was terrible. The gold panther head was probably the best option.

Re: White Out

I like the white helmets. With money such a big concern is it wise to buy another set of them?

Could be rentals, or if they are purchased, auctioned off.

Re: White Out

My opinion on this is similar to the opinion many of y'all had on the whole "blackout" game idea from last year.

Interesting. Aren't the Redbirds' road uniforms white? Maybe not that day.

I believe the home team gets choice of wearing the light or dark uniforms. teams just usually choose the dark ones.

here is what the NCAA rulebook says about the situation:

Jersey Color and Design

ARTICLE 5. a. Players of opposing teams shall wear jerseys of contrasting
colors. Players on the same team shall wear jerseys of the same color and
design.

1. The visiting team shall wear white jerseys; however, the home team may wear white jerseys if the teams have agreed in writing before the season.
2. If the home team wears colored jerseys, the visiting team may also wear colored jerseys, if and only if the following conditions have been satisfied:
   • The home team has agreed in writing prior to the game; and
   • The conference of the home team certifies that the jersey of the visiting team is of a contrasting color.

Why would a visiting team agree to do that?

Probably because who cares.

Re: White Out

Common courtesy. They might want to do it themselves sometime.

Why would they want to do it themselves? It's a terrible idea.

Re: White Out

vs. Illinois State will feature this helmet:




This according to the @UNIAthletics twitter

I like it, I guess. I like the alternate logo on it, too.

Re: White Out

Here is my opinion on "white out" or "black out" or any other color. The color of the uniform only sticks in my mind for a few plays, but to look across the crowd and see all the fans participating shows me that the fans follow and support their school, and to me that is what counts. The players will perform better with fan support, don't get me wrong, they are trying anyway, but the fan support, visual and VOCAL will get their adrenaline going.
