If Campbell was mainly talking about merchandizing in reference to black, I have no problem with it. I'm almost-anything-goes with products.
We have dozens of options for colors and logos and history choices and historic player uniform replicas. Go to a game at Trice, you see anything and everything.
I have two coffee cups I've used for years, both white, one has the DannyMac Swirly-Cy, the other has Criner-era cursive-tornado logo.
My favorite game-day T-shirt is throwback to common '70s design: gold-on-cardinal, with stacked lettering:
IOWA
STATE
Many other examples I could use — I-State logo on gray and gear with various shades of cardinal (dark-medium-bright).
Incorporating black into uniform options requires treading more carefully.
