Nice! This is my favorite combo from the current sets they’ve put on the field so far. Assuming they’re going with cardinal pants.
OK then. I’m good, no problem! If it’s b/c/c blk socks shoes mostly, all good!

How are uniform decisions made? Captains? Skip? HCMC? Marketing? Equipment czar? ADJP?

It doesn’t look bad but yeah I doubt we do that


Good work on the mock-up, but I hope we never do this. We have enough black alternates.
Agreed. And I think the mock-up might have been Levi S. at ...natty light. Coach hasn’t been mixing any of the black w the cardinal (except helmet) so its going to likely be b/c/c.

Some schools have known, elaborate procedures... vote of the captains, vote of the seniors, etc., something like that, to make a collaborative decision.

From what I have heard, though, this is Campbell's unilateral call for us.

Perhaps HCMC wears the same thing each day so that he can save his wardrobe decision-making power for game uniforms. Makes sense in a football coach sort of way.

If I had to guess...

Campbell likes variety throughout the season.
Campbell likes contrast (of our outfit compared to an opponent).
Campbell likes black and hates gold.
Campbell is superstitious -- see repeating W/C/W against TTU and W/W/C for Oklahoma and other big road games, that being our "magic" outfit in 2017.

And since the intro of black w the uniforms, I think a good thing, not mixing the black (generally) w our cardinal and gold, is another good thing. It’s very discrete and shows good forethought. We know Coach likes the black. I suppose the black uniform could have more or even some c/g in it but then it would lose its monochromatic uniqueness. Right now I think it’s intentionally designed to mostly be ‘stand alone’. I’m sure it will evolve and change over time. At least Coach isn’t doing a bunch of weird black combinations, knock on wood.

"Monochromatic uniqueness!" You design guys know how to talk too!

After that visual dumpster douche that was the Camping World Bowl uniforms.....can Campbell and Pollard and Wintersteen just get together and agree we are going to sport the 49er uniforms? For the sake of the institution and all that is dear to the bells of Iowa State?
