Pretty sure this is the first time the football team has used yellow or gold in their graphics since the logo change. Still wondering if we'll have a home jersey to match this, or if we're using last year's to presumably save some money. This seems like a positive step though, IMO.

Suddenly a lot of "gold"...

Weird that they haven’t shown the home jersey until now, but… there it is! Kinda wish the front just said “Lions” on the home jersey, if it has to say anything. But it’s literally just swapping purple for white from the road jersey. Wonder what helmets we’ll get with these? Dearmon seems to be a fan of our past and has mentioned liking the stars on the helmet like the championship teams…

Here's another interesting tweet. I don't believe we used that helmet last year - the lion head was only on the white helmets. Could simply be that the person throwing this graphic together didn't do their research. Who knows.

Mostly digging the look here. Don't think I'll ever like the "NA" logo, and I'd prefer glossy helmets over matte, but the jerseys themselves look clean.

30 looks like he could knock somebody down….we struggled to do that last year.

In the state of Alabama the stickers are now permanently yellow for your month. So we will still have yellow on the tag.

For those who didn’t notice, the team wore solid purple helmets last night, like the championship years. Dearmon has talked so much about the Purple Swarm, I wasn’t surprised at all. I’m pretty sure I saw some guys with white stars on their helmets, as well. I like it and I’m fine with it replacing the purple “NA” helmet we wore some last year.
In other “branding” news, the University released an official “Roar Lions” app on both iPhone and Android. You can buy tickets through it, see schedules, access links to the TV and radio broadcasts, etc. Not bad to have all of that in one place. My only gripe, is of course… not a single bit of gold to be found. I’d like to know what gold did to hurt Dr. Looney.

Been catching up on social media from the last few days, and guys... it's sort of strange. Suddenly there's a LOT of (yellow) gold in pictures and graphics. It's almost like overnight something changed. I'm not sure the reason, or why we went through the wilderness for a while there, but maybe things are looking up?
Could this tweet have anything to do with it? I'm not sure if Affinity was involved with us before, or if they just took over, if they would even have the time (or power) to influence anything. But it does seem coincidental at least.

Maybe I can stop posting updates soon. It looks like gold is back on the menu, boys. I still don't know why we went through this awkward few years where it seemed to be removed... but hopefully that's in the past now.
