The design and color combinations of the San Francisco California professional American football club are the best color combination this side of Hogwarts. So, of course, we must go for the Ronald McDonald look because we generally have the sense of a dumb *** caucus grandmas.

haha. Well you actually hit the answer to our mustard gold color. The reason we can't ever go back to a true gold shade is because long ago the San Fransico 49ers purchased the rights to ISUs gold color scheme. Just do some searching on it. Way back when. Hence the reason for our switch to the Ronald McDonald yellow.

wts, I totally agree with others that CPR needs to change things up and get with the times and what draws recruits interest they want to look cool. That was one of the first things Briles did at Baylor.

I bet they keep the same jersey design, but the new style Nike uniforms with the new materials and the Elite collar that many schools and the NFL uses.

I'll jump on this whenever I see it:

FOR THE LOVE OF GAWD STOP PLAYING IT BEFORE THE FOURTH QUARTER. I can't think of a better way to drown a team's psychological edge when the game is tight down the stretch. Let's just kill all momentum with a fairy song rather than riling up the team and crowd with something intense and adrenaline building. Neil Diamond should only be played AFTER victories. It worked for the Oklahoma State upset.

I don't even think it should still be played after victories. It was good in an ironic way for awhile, but that time has long passed. But, if it must stay, only play it after the game is over and we've won.

Can't imagine we'll get new ones with a possible coaching change if we don't succeed.

Save it for the new coach to define a new era (if that happens) or do it next year if Rhoads has a great season and will be here awhile.

Changing them again isn't really a big deal.

Yes. Someone make it stop.

I just doubt we come out with new uniforms twice in two years.

Well, we don't necessarily need a "whole new look." Just change up the combinations. Wear gold on golds again. Wear red on red with a yellow helmet. All whites with a white helmet. Metallic red and "chrome" gold. Put the old funnel or bird in a blender logo on a pair of gloves. Do another Earl Bruce throwback look. Something. Anything.

I absolutely agree we should have been doing all that all along if Rhoads wasn't so stubborn. I mean totally new uniforms.

The JT throwbacks paid for themselves because fans bought them. As a Nike school do we get any special uniforms for free from them or just the basics?

Can you provide a link about the 49ers? I think this was disproven awhile back.

Also the Earl Bruce era gold was pretty close to the 49er gold, and those colors looked great. We really need to upgrade our uni's and this year with the new stadium addition would be good timing. The Oky States, Baylors and T-Tech's are leaving us in the dust in the uniform race, and to continue to tout the old school thing seems more like stubborness to me.

Hmmm, maybe not as close as I remembered. But maybe its the lighting in those photos because on tv the 49er helmets look more gold than that photo (which makes them look almost a light tan), and in the old Bruce era clips the gold on the uni's looks a lot more gold than yellow.

Add black and white into the mix. Don't touch the cardinal and gold tones.

I agree, for those that don't like the black just look at the top and bottom banners on you screen right now that CF uses. The dark charcoal grey - black color looks great with Cardinal and Gold as an accent.

My main reason I want black is you can't tell how bad I've pitted out my black cyclone shirt after 8 hours of August tailgating.
