No way, I loved all the uniforms except the 2 tone brown with oars all over them. Constantly had to explain what it was and why they were there.

I'm thinking we are going to see some cool throwback uniforms. Possibly even the true brown and gold uniforms.

Maybe. But it was during Lester's Junior year (1998) that we started using black in uniforms and apparel.

Got an RTB sweatshirt for Christmas...doubt it'll ever get worn.

Love the black uniforms - I hope Lester goes for more of an old school look (but not cheap looking uniforms like the Darnell uniforms), but keeps black as a base color.

Those uniforms were gross - I hope Lester doesn't go for a trip down memory lane with uniform design. The Cubit era uniforms were actually my favorite. I'd be fine with bringing those back.

I love the camouflage uniforms we did once (also did for WMU hockey).

All these new names with 2-3 posts, interesting. Very interesting. 04-jawdrop

Agreed.

Pretty hard to be a TRUE Bronco, yet support MSU. 03-puke

...and not even know WMU's colors are BROWN and gold, not black.

I'm comfortable with the white and BROWN! And the BROWN and white. The lack of OARS is going to be a welcome change!

The Cubit era everything was your favorite.

PJ always referred to a player leadership council with regard to decisions on uniforms and what not... I will bet Lester continues that philosophy... I agree with the idea that the players decide how the Uni's look... they have to wear them..

Black is terrible. I'd like to see the rest of our teams get away from using it.

I think the Dipper snuck in here for a quick recon & evac, just to keep us off balance. Call it a hunch.

I don't mind black. Wesley Snipes said in one of his movies "Always bet on black" -- and we need all the winning luck on the Broncos as we can get. I never thought they were ugly, but I can understand not having them as THE default main color of our uniforms... but for a certain occasion like "black out saturday" -- yeah, I could row with that. 03-wink

And yet here you post anyway.

I'm up for new looks and as many changes as the kids want. What I don't want is plain, mediocre uniform homages to eras of poor football all for personal nostalgia.

Black, Brown, Gold, whatever. The progression of our uniforms has been a treat to watch.

Also whomever titled this thread should probably work for a clickbait web publication
