I've seen the new uniforms, absolutely no Gold... As soon I I saw the Twitter feed, I sent the email...
"How long does it take to agree on a shade of Gold?"
"You don't want to piss off the only alum and fans that's been paying attention and actually donate money for scholarships, and your salary."

It's so irritating because it's such an easy thing to NOT SCREW UP. This isn't retaining a coach to avoid paying a buyout. There's no chance this is in some way "saving us money". It's the university and/or the athletic department just blatantly deciding to remove gold against alum and fan wishes. There is zero reason to do it. ZERO.
Actually, if the university decides on a shade of gold at some point this year, for example (probably a BS excuse, but let's assume it isn't), how stupid is it that we ordered new uniforms for all these sports, only to need to turn around and order entirely new sets with whatever shade of gold they choose?
I've supported most of what Looney has done, but if this is his decision, it's a terrible one.

Gold has all but disappeared since his arrival after it had crept back in for a few years finally. It’s super annoying!! |

The Men’s uniforms do not like like North Alabama. It’s sad, really. With that being said, I’m glad Pujol got the last names put on the jerseys. These kids deserve that at this level of play. Don’t understand why this can’t be done across all sports. Can’t be that much more money to get patches put on. I know Samford does it for football.

You’d think somebody would have some pride in who we are and tell these coaches (or ADs) they can’t just use whatever colors they want. But, I suppose some hotshot with a marketing degree convinced our higher-ups that gold wasn’t good for our “brand”. I don’t know. What a clown show. I agree about the names, though. It’s important to the players, I’m sure. |

It’s been 25 minutes. How do you not make an announcement?

Good to see the production crew AND the social media team are both in mid-season form!

Lions have 60 at the half. KJ Johnson was a huge addition!

Wish we’d stop scheduling this game every year. I mean I get it, but we need a team that can at least give us some sort of a measuring stick.
