LoboFan07 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 What's the point of having school colors if you're not going to stick to them? Â Too much black in uniforms now IMO. Stick to your colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarthDawg77 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 I wondered what was up with the pink & Silver capes the GW drill team wore the night we played them......The Football team, not the drill team; before any of you get any ideas!😱😜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOBOFAN84 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Our fight song says, .....Green White fight fight fight! Not Green White Black Gold Silver, etc. fight fight fight. Stick to the colors of your school! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyClydePuckett Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 I have never understood HC's that try to change the color scheme. What? You have THAT much spare time and need for a headache on your hands? Â I remember hearing Mike Hedrick back he was still HC at Jewett Leon say that "these are work clothes" nothing more. Darrell Royal said basically the same thing years before that.' Â Every school has colors stick with them. I cannot stand those that see the need to add trim colors that are in no part of the schools official colors. Â Of course the Pee Wee folks are not making it any easier on the schools what with their outfitting kids with the most expensive uniforms money can buy so then when they get in JH and get the HS's hand me downs that is real let down for them. Â Personally I like the White on White road uni's that Texas has, IMO they are the BEST uniforms in College Football. Very plain but very slick at the same time. And there is absolutely NO doubt about what team you are watching when you see those uniforms. They have taken something not very flashy at all and made it stand out better than ANYTHING that Oregon wears, but once again that is just my .02 on the situation.

EnjoyLife Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 You should look like who you are. Hendersons sticks to red and blue...except that for some strange reason our white road jerseys have silver numbers that are really hard to read.

Vandalman Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 When I was in school... last century, they actually officially changed our school colors from maroon/white to red/white. Never understood why. Anyway I say stick to your colors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MHS77 Posted September 25, 2015 Author Share Posted September 25, 2015 The problem is move in people that think they can move in and take over the town and start making changes and in this case the Old Timers like myself are not going to stand for it...Once their kids are gone so is their support anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTate Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Back in the day (The 60's). Tatum school colors were Green & White. Our coach did not like Green & White, so he bought Orange and White uniforms. From the 7th Grade thru my junior year we wore Orange & White. My senior year after he left, Tatum went back to the traditional Green. Personally, I liked the Orange & White better, but a lot of people were upset with the change. It did seem weird though with us playing in Orange & White uniforms and the band marching in Green & White. If I remember correctly the cheerleaders wore Orange & White as well. But, in the end it didn't really matter, heck play ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Harmony's colors are red & white. For some reason, black became the "official" unofficial third color. We've never used, to my knowledge, on any uniforms except maybe as detailing. A little change while still holding onto tradition might be nice. Nothing radical like orange & white, sorry JTate.

RuntheRock06 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 I feel like if you want to change it up, wear special uniforms for occasions like homecoming or cancer awareness month, then that is fine for a limited time. I know some larger schools will change up a uniform for a special occasion. However, adding colors that aren't your school colors just seems wrong. I know when I go back to my old high school for games- I would be disappointed to see uniforms that don't match the tradition of the school. It would almost be like saying it wasn't good enough before so let's change it. That is what makes Texas High School football so great- traditions that link generations together.

DoubleTeam Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 In high school, you need 1 away set and 1 home set with school colors. Stop wasting tax dollars on extras. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluetopper Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 What I have noticed is in recent years, schools which have gold as an official main color have replaced it with yellow on their jerseys and helmets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metalhead10 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 White Oak has digital camo in their uniforms. Outside of the uniforms Gladewater adopted the past couple of years, they are the worst uniforms around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 White Oak has digital camo in their uniforms. Outside of the uniforms Gladewater adopted last year, they are the worst uniforms around. I'm 50/50 on the whole matte/ no shine helmets. When done right it looks good but man it can be ugly.

Cats98 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 I like the alternate uniforms. The kids are the ones playing I think they should look how they want too as long as like in Waskoms case Maroon is the main color. I see nothig wrong with using black, gray, silver or white. just one mans opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
