Re: Old Dimionin White Out

Atleast when Iowa did it Gold Blowout it was apart of their colors. White is nothing to do with UNI. The only thing I thought was cool was 2 years ago when Iowa had all the students wear green for Shonne Greene and the rest of the Stadium was black. But again white has nothing to do with UNI colors or players. I also just looked at the Facebook update for UNI and it said the student section was supposed to wear white and the rest of the crowd should wear Purple.

I also am wondering what those pep band kids are gonna wear, I wonder if they are gonna buy a white wig and white crocs and white bibs.

When I was in school there was a couple of those people as well. Everyone thought they were a big joke.

Except for the predominant "color" that our players will be wearing that game (and every home game).

It's the predominate color for every home team, unless they have an alternate home jersey in a light color like Iowa, USC, Michigan, Minnesota, etc...

Re: Old Dimionin White Out

Again, who the "f" cares what the students want to do to make it a rallying point to get to the game and be as much a part of the action as possible. Is it a gimmick (Felis)? Yes. So was the pizza that Mac started buying the students to get them to come. So are ticket promos that have been used to get people to games. So is the "Everybody clap your hands" thing that plays before a free throw. The question isn't whether it is a gimmick or not, but does it have a desired effect. I would say that if it gets people excited about going to a game and supporting their team, then everyone that wants to b!tch just to b!tch should just shut up and live and let live.

I can guess that you're "that guy" that drives around b!tching about the color of cars that people have chosen to drive...or color they chose to paint their house. You're getting old before your time, Felis. Relax and lighten up, Felis.

Re: Old Dimionin White Out

I can't believe students are not supportive of the pep group. I presume the pep group is the one clad in the purple and gold overalls? I do not understand why she is not respected by the entire campus. Appalled I tell you. Appalled. To denigrate the efforts of this young person, wait, what? There's more than one person in the pep group?

Sorry.

Re: Old Dimionin White Out

Like I said, we all know what was though of Griff....we now have about 8 of him leading the student section.

Oh yes, we should definitely nip this sort of thing in the bud.
Else our student section might end up something like the student section at Duke basketball games. Heaven forbid.....

And while we're at it, everybody needs to stop standing up and cheering at basketball games. sit there quietly, for pete's sake!

I take back some of what I said, since it has been said on the facebook group...I don't have facebook, so I didn't see this....that it is a student only gold out, the rest is to wear Purple, that I like. I loved the Mac's Maniacs back in the day. A thousand or more students in Gold and the rest in Purple. That I can go along with. However, the white I still vieamently oppose.

It's very idiotic for comparing them to him. You ever watch major college basketball? EVERY student group has something similar to these 8.

Re: Old Dimionin White Out

I'll be there this Saturday and hopefully BB Friday wearing my gray UNI sweatshirt. Yelling as loud as I can. REGARDLESS of what color I've been asked to wear. I suggest you all do the same.

Re: Old Dimionin White Out

i predict epic failure for this and the gold out. Every game should br a purple out. How is the white out going to work with those stupid fugly jailmate overalls that the university bought at like $70 bucks a pop for those kids going to work...they arent white. How bad will it look of everyone is in white except the jailmate gang who are supposed to be the student leaders arent in white?

So why did the male cheerleaders quit?
