I agree with all of you on the cardinal color thing. Why can't we get the color right? Is that the fault of Blade, Gaddis, Mullins, or Nike? I also agree that the grey unis should be worn only occasionally and shouldn't become our home unis. I love the whites too!

Gallatin got new grey uni's last year and the sentiment was the same. The younger people liked them and the traditionalist older people hated them. I personally don't mind them if they are used sparingly and not every game. The older people generally do have a say somewhat when the major supporters are the ones footing the bill. If I am a major contributor, then yeah I want a day in it. So it goes both ways. In a few years it won't matter if they stay with them or not.

Gallatin's color is green so I can see some people both young and old not liking gray unis in Gallatin. Our colors are Cardinal and gray so old people who don't like the gray unis are just stubborn since gray is our color. They shouldn't have a say at all. I'm not even wild about the gray myself but what's their argument? Is it that we shouldn't have a uniform that's actually our school color? Give me a break!

Good point.

That shade of dark grey is not Oak Ridge's. I prefer a silver grey but since I don't have a say I'll just live with it. Just don't ask me to pay for them. just saying.

I do miss the Silver grey pants we used to wear in the 90's. Them suckers were sharp.

I'll more than make up for not buying cookie dough. The boosters need to run an adult raffle, could make a bunch doing that. And I think they have a 501-3C so it'd be legal. I'd support that.

I am not totally against the grey uni's, but I do wonder why we wouldn't want a Cardinal uniform? Isn't that our primary color scheme? I'll go with whatever the boys want I reckon, but I'd sure love to see an all Cardinal uni!

Some of you need to remember where we are....this is BIG ORANGE COUNTRY! They got the smokey gray unis (and there is no shade of gray in Tennessee's team colors) and the players LOVE them! Why do you think Sevier County ordered some? Pretty sure Karns did too. RW said Maryville did as well.  It's just what kids around here like. I personally don't really like them and I would prefer the cardinal too.....but I think Tennessee and Butch Jones are to blame for the local craze for gray unis. And I will buy cookies if asked and I love Papa Bounder's idea about a raffle.
