    You don't have to wear white - only real panthers fans will be doing so.
    Touche. I guess I'll just wear my same Purple UNI shirt I've worn to every home game this year and not be a real fan because I'm not in white/yellow or overalls.

      Well when we lose because the team knew not everyone in the stands supported they by wearing white we'll all know who to blame.

      They should refuse to allow anyone not wearing white to enter the arena that night. Only awesome people allowed.

        I'm sure they appreciate your kindness, but let's just be honest here...it is clear from just watching the students react to them during the game that they are a joke to them. Hell, if I were a student I'd laugh at a guy wearing jailmate looking bibs, a purple wig, and crocs. Keep in mind, I'm not bashing them personally...for all i know they are GREAT people and will do amazing things with their lives...maybe be President, cure A.I.D.S. or something I don't know. As people I'm sure they are great. However, it is like having 10 Griffs down there, and we know how he was looked at by fellow students and other fans.

          I guess I'll have to go to Beck's and sit at a table with a purple UNI logo on it.

            That's the best place for you. Make sure you tell the waitstaff that you only sort of support UNI and don't care if we look totally awesome on TV. Just like Penn State!

              Just a rundown/reminder of upcoming events:

              this Saturday Feb 6th- Wear GOLD

              Friday Feb 19th- Wear WHITE

              UNI is continuing to gain national recognition and exposure so we need to show the nation how much we love our Panthers and continue to pack the stands of the McCleod and make it a loud home field advantage, especially for these two games on ESPN2!

              We've got some things planned for these games so don't miss out!

              So apparently we need to show the nation how much we love our Panthers by wearing a shirt that isn't a school color and a shirt that not many people have...What about just wearing a shirt that had UNI on it to show them how much we love UNI
              Well, that helps explain a little of the attendance issues. Our student section 'leaders' don't even know how to spell the name of the arena correctly.

              Stick with purple, you already have 1/2 of the arena wearing that now.

                People are really getting worked up over the color of shirts. Who the frick cares. If you don't want to wear white, just get in the seats and cheer loud. That's what is going to make an impression on TV. Get out and get loud folks.
                If computers ruled college basketball the way they do football, we'd have skipped all this March Madness monotony and just waited a month for the Kansas-Kentucky title game. And watched Northern Iowa play Cornell in the Poulan Weedeater Bowl. ~ Dwight Perry The Seattle Times

                  EXACTLY! Why does wearing Yellow or White on TV make it look like we support our team more than Purple...or Pink...or Brown...or Green.

                      It doesn't but is it really worth getting so worked up about a student attempt to white out a game?

                            Classic UNI mentality.
                            The students who actively try to generate a fun gametime atmosphere, start cheers, and get people pumped up get mocked. (As do the actual cheerleaders).

                            No wonder our game atmosphere sucks in comparison to other arenas.

                              I was thinking the same thing.

                                I agree. (wasn't too long ago there were lots of complaints that the student body didn't show up, let alone cheer.) Why are they afraid to have fun??
