I love the idea of the checkerboard, and orange mask! I think we need a slight makeover. Nothing extreme, stay traditional with a little bling. A fresh start.

Saw where Jacques Smith put a picture of these helmets and said our new helmets time for a new tradition, or something close to that. I like them a lot, would love to see some black jerseys to bring some energy to the team and fan base every now and then.

I really like that helmet. Myself I would really like that helmet and a black out just once out of the year so this team can have a big morale boost and have a little swag. I for one love the orange and white, and love the fact that we continue tradition but I also want to see this team change it up a little bit once in awhile and have some fun.

Happy Halloween

I may just be reading to much into your comment that you have some inside info and you know for sure from a reliable source that at next years game around Halloween we'll be wearing black jerseys and just maybe......just maybe that is when Gruden will for real be announced as UT's next head coach! JK! GO VOLS & GO COACH JONES!! I'm behind anything he does and if that means black jerseys then so be it. I do love the checkerboard stripe though!

Much better than black. Grey and black is a MUCH better look than black and orange.

Yea I know and agree. I think when we wore the black the stage was set perfect for it. Halloween, night game and we needed a little shot in the arm. The way it was done to was pretty awesome, the way they came out in orange in pre-game and then back in black....awesome! The one and maybe only thing that one coach we had did that I thought was great.
