  • ...WVU's all yellow uniforms or L'ville's black and red capri pants. Looks the equipment managers went to a garage sale at Elton John's house. All they are missing is some sequins.

  • They looked like a bunch of bananas running around the field!!  Those were some of the ugliest unis I have ever seen. Neon freakin yellow!!  They weren't even close to gold color. God, I am glad we did not get Nike free reign to change our unis. Who knows what they would have looked like.

  • those uni's look fine they match the yellow everybody is wearing in the stands. . .why should we care if they are not actual gold?  I went to HHS and our colors were gold and green. . .but we never actually used gold for any of our sports. . .it was always green w/ a yellow trim. or green w/white. . . i wish we could afford more than two uniforms. . .

    One of my basic philosophies of life is, "If you can't say something good about Marshall, say something bad about WVU."

    Oh, OK, so you can actually see the WVU fans in the stands, not like the black clad fans here at Marshall...YET ANOTHER thing to get depressed about.  :'(

    Still yes, the team looked like running nana's...so I've renamed them the nanaEERs!

  • They actually looked better than I thought they would.
    Not as bad as Oregon's all-yellows. Still, I wouldn't make a habit of it.

  • Rich Rod came to Huntington and seen our all greens a few weeks ago.

    He sat down with the brain trusts at the eer factory and said

     "I'll be a son of a &*^(*.   Those Mother^%$%# all greens look pretty (*%^$*$% good. I think we should put our ^*&^*% in some ()*)%*%_*&_ all Yeller.  Whatda you (^*&^($ think?".

    Can this man not speak a complete sentence without this vile filth spewing from his mouth? I don't think I've ever seen the camera on him where they could repeat what the trash mouth said.

  • Oddly at this point I would take a coach with some fire in him spewing cuss words like a drunkin sailor than a coach who looks to stunned to speak most of the time. I think we need to worry about our own house before we decide to clean someone else's. jmo.

    Couldnt agree more, a little emotion would be nice.  Did you see RR last night yelling and grabbing his guys?  I dislike wvu, but I would love to have a coach that had their coaches ability.

  • Hey, Bill Cowher is not coaching right now...how about him? He would give you that coach with fire and and true players coach. Now, if we can just find someone to fork out about $6 mill. per year to get him here. haha

    As far as WVUs unis I will say this, at least their uneducated crowd can follow freakin directions and wear the same color. That was actually pretty impressive. What does that say about our fans who are told on the radio, news, newspaper, internet, and in person to wear the same color to the game and yet it looks like they all lived under a rock and didn't know Marshall's colors were green and white. Pathetic.

  • Did you see the one guy they kept showing in the crowd that had a blue shirt, tie and hat on. They kept pointing him out and Fowler kept saying "He didn't get the memo" or something to that effect.

    I like our pea pods but I have noticed on televised night games they kind of blend in with the turf. I am beginning to think it may be our stadium lighting. Am I the only one that thinks the lighting is not bright enough? :-\

    I'm glad someone else agrees. I have wondered this for years. You really can't tell inside the stadium but it looks very bad on tv. Especially CSTV. For some reason they are worse than other networks.

    CSTV looks a heck of a lot worse. The games on ESPN look fine to me.
