We are now "overmarketing" with all this bs....

the snow bowl hype, the hashtag crap, the idea that we actually considered painting our field white....then we spend a quarter of a million dollars on the unis. I mean think about that 250K. Isn't there a better use of dollars than that? We already have various combinations of uniforms. Who gives a crap about all this uni hype? Obviously, the players got no motivation from those uniforms. How many different uniforms have you seen Alabama wear? Just wear our school colors and play like you care. It really is that simple....I do not know what this was today but it was quite nauseating to watch. Players and coaches should go into hibernation for the next 24 hours and not show their faces.

Yep, think we've gone to far in the glitz direction and less on hard nose football.

Totally agree and will add that I am offended by the idiocy of replacing our school name with "Hail" on the uniforms. Idiocy is the right word. And when will the jumbotron become a positive? These guys need to get off their asses and represent The People's University with pride and love.

I never really liked the overhyping of this game from the beginning. Sure that game in Shreveport was fun but the history that I would pay more attention to is our record in 'special uniform' games. Ditch the the flair and learn how to get pressure on a QB.

on top of all that we have pissed off the TSUN and they are now in position to bury our asses when we go to Oxford. We deserve whatever we get.

Exactly. Let's get back to the basics and stop all this nonsense. If we ever become a serious contender, OK. Some fluff might be tolerable. But we look like fools at this stage of the game.

Professional Wrestling-style marketing is best left to professional wrestling. It's getting old quickly. Did the unis really cost a quarter million dollars?
