agree…no other program has that color scheme and it’s recognizable all over the country.
the color has devolved into more like a plain baby blue which annoys and disappoints me. Here is the actual Carolina blue, or something close to it, given the effect of an old photo seen through a computer screen. I guess many people can't see a difference but you easily can when you hold the two next to each other.
I read somewhere that the current shade of blue is used because it shows up better on television. Not sure if that's actually true, but it would make sense.the color has devolved into more like a plain baby blue which annoys and disappoints me.

Even still, the current color is unique and instantly recognizable as distinctly Carolina. The best style to me was when were sporting those old tearaways, but the helmet should always display the superimposed NC.
yeah, I've heard a few explanations like that. Another is that the standard pantone color they chose for commercial purposes sort of melded with the uniform color. I also think the coaches have made some changes for their own reasons. What irritates me is that some changes were made personally (I think) with brainless disregard of tradition. I'm am one of those tradition guys. I hated much of the playing around with uni's that was done under Fedora, I know I was in the minority on that.
i think i did one years ago and from that moment on it’s been like the scarlet letter for me…had a war with someone about it and it’s still the only poster i’ve ever ignored haha.
lol, I only vaguely remember something about that, but I can tell it happened because of recent sarcasm on the subject directed at you. We can just let it go for the time being.
To be fair, @gteeitup did have something about hating our uniforms in his signature line for a long time, so he brought it on himself.
Acc officials were allowing mich cb’s to grab receivers. Threw off all the timing on the routes.
I don't know... he has a specific clause (allegedly) that, if he leaves CU for Bama, he/they pay more for his buy-out. He's an Alabama man... hey! ... that reminds me...
no way…people were chanting on campus last night “say no to dabo” or something like that.
I'm sure he's on the list, but I don't think it's near the top. I get the feeling he wouldn't take the job. Seems like a guy who will be there until he retires or gets fired.
I think staying at Clemson is the best choice. I just know from around here that the fear has always been "When Saban retires, Swinney will go back to Alabama." Kind of like Roy Williams at Kansas, basically. Now, if what @gteeitup is saying is true, then the Tide fans don't want Swinney... maybe that plays a role in it, I dunno.
If he's there long enough, he might be trying to beat those teams. Either them or OSU, Michigan and PSU.
I tell ya... I really wonder if these money-makers are aware of potentially ruining the product they're trying to sell. I guess it won't matter because Alabama will always play Auburn, Ohio State will always play Michigan, and Texas will always play Oklahoma. But... a lot of traditional rivalries will die with this realignment.
Perfect world is the ACC stays together and kicks out some of the northern teams. Real word is the ACC is a shit product and UNC needs to follow the money.
no argyle, not bad…that ram looks soft, though.Rhode Island is vying for second place.

there's also The Citadel, but I think we're talking about programs that people know even exist.Rhode Island is vying for second place.

bro, it’s the socon…they don’t even have a youtube tv deal.there's also The Citadel, but I think we're talking about programs that people know even exist.
BTW, you're in that Twilight Zone of posting pics. The image you posted shows up just fine when you reply to the post.
Not top 5. I’m guessing if they could get him they’d go after Kirby Smart. But no way is that call even happening.
And FSU just got hit with NCAA sanctions. That could give him another reason to leave. Although, it might give Alabama a reason to move him down the list.

Now I’m hearing Urban Meyer name floated. Or Lane Kiffin, but that isn’t a great personality / demeanor fit.
This is insane. And $1M is sort of pocket change / petty cash for the Texas program. Alabama isn’t too far behind tho. I think I read their team had an annual “football operations” recruiting etc budget of $70-80 Mil per year. And this amount has nothing to do even with NIL money.
yep…since saban, enrollment went from 25,000 to 40,000 and revenue between $800mill - $1bill.
FSU must have been trying to expedite the move to the SEC in order to avoid such punishment.
Sources: NCAA levies significant penalties on Florida State for NIL recruiting violations
The NCAA is expected to levy significant penalties on FSU in the most serious and unprecedented sanctions handed down in the first 2 1/2 years of NIL.
