Teams that don't mess around with their uniforms: Yankees, Dodgers, Cardinals, Lakers, Celtics, Packers, Cowboys, Steelers - why? because they don't have to. The consistency of the uniform speaks to the consistent success on the field.

Counter point: Teams that don't change their uniforms are teams that don't get to.....because they're beholden to some nonsense about how great they were way back when as if the patterns on their clothes had anything to do with it.

In scum's case, I thought they just really liked rakes or something. Do Wolverine's even use rakes? I've never understood it.

OK, I like their helmet. I like that they stick with it year after year. From a marketing POV, it's smart. I don't care where the picture comes from, or if it's in B/W or color, you instantly know it's Michigan. I also like Penn State, USC, Texas, for the consistency of their uniforms.

Take OSU out of consideration for a moment; why do teams change their uniforms/helmets? a) to help Nike, Champion, Addidas make money. b) to make some money selling "alternate" jerseys c) because they have an image problem.

Teams that don't mess around with their uniforms: Yankees, Dodgers, Cardinals, Lakers, Celtics, Packers, Cowboys, Steelers - why? because they don't have to. The consistency of the uniform speaks to the consistent success on the field.

The teams that change their uniforms the most are teams that suck for long periods of time: Phillies, Reds, Browns, Padres, Seattle whatevers, Indiana FB, Northwestern, Vandy, Cal, Kansas FB. Their inconsistency in uniforms is consistent with their lack of success on the field.

Then there's Oregon - do they even know what the school colors are?

Outside of the Celtics, Packers and Steelers, the rest of those teams have alternate jerseys.
And I think teams change unis because recruits like them, many fans like them, and the players like them as well. The old alum of schools don’t like the changes, but if you go on college campuses, many of the current student are wearing the alternate jerseys. It yes, it also comes down to making money and also looking cool, to put it bluntly

Well, since we know scUM loves to talk about their tradition, let us all take a moment to remember THIS Ode to past glory. (?)
By the way, I think the conversation there is something like "They're gonna break it off in our asses again aren't they?

They need to go back to Adidas. They excelled at creating Walmart clearance rack alt uniforms for them. Perfect for the Walmart wolverines.
