Can we stop with Chrome now? Who are we trying to be, WKU?

What is our record wearing the chrome domes? My gut tells me we do well when we wear them. I kind of dig em. I suspect they are a player favorite as often as they show up.

LSU just announced white helmets. Maybe the chrome helps differentiate especially at game speed.

Cardinal, white, cardinal, like at Clemson, would contrast nicely. IMO, our default road uni should be Cardinal over white over Cardinal and our home default should be white over Cardinal over white. Save the alternate colors/combinations for special occasions. There's a mystique about seeing Penn State, USC, UCLA, Michigan, or, don't shoot me, Alabama, take the field in the same uni every week.

The players like the variety and the coaches use them as a recruiting tool.

It's just a personal preference, but I'd like to see our uniforms be part of our identity. That said, I promise I won't skip any games because of a uni combo.

I actually think we have found magic with the power "T". I think it's a classic look and in the 20+ years I've been following TMTDM, it's my favorite. Marvin for a homecoming throw back would be pretty neat, though. He was the decal worn on the helmets in '95 when I graduated and bought my first tickets.

The players like the variety and the coaches use them as a recruiting tool. That’s right, Penn St. Alabama USC Texas Florida St Georgia Ohio St Michigan Norte Dame, yea they cant recruit with those boring same ole uniforms they wear each week. Please, no stud 4 star recruit will chose Troy because we mix and match our three different colored pants, shirts and helmets.

What works for some doesn't work for all. Troy's marketing is doing fine. Largest crowds in school's history. Not everyone has embrace the run to look like all those teams. I, too, will not miss watching or attending Trojan games because of what they're wearing.

The Power T is the new identity of the program. I don't live in the state of Alabama, but the Power T on my truck gets me a "Go Troy" at least once a week. I'm a fan of every uniform combo we currently have. Just remember, it could always be worse:

Dang guys I thought I had missed something here, so I went back and read through the thread again. With the exception of one comment about the stopping with the chrome and one comment agreeing with that, nothing said in this thread even APPROACHES a complaint. The tone and tenor of the discussion was that of us DISCUSSING uniforms. This thread is (for this board) a surprisingly civil discourse in which several of us were offering opinions late on a night when not much else was going on. You like the chrome, no big deal. I personally have no problem with it, I just like other options better....chocolate and vanilla. This is a discussion board and our discussing the uniforms shouldn't necessarily be viewed as complaining. Dang PC.

I don't want TROY to be like those other schools. We are unique and recognizable and becoming more so every week. The uniform combinations are perfect each week IMHO. I love that we put 12 different uniform combinations on the field for the 12 regular season games last year. And the players love it too based on some reports.
And I've promoted the power T since the first time I saw it. It is the perfect symbol for TROY.

Can we stop with Chrome now? Who are we trying to be, WKU? Chrome is the best looking helmet we wear but that’s just MY opinion. When we wear White, who are we trying to be, ULM or Penn St? When we wear red who are we trying to be, Alabama? Just look good and win the darn game.

Personally I like the cardinal matte or black the best. But I'm interested in how the cardinal chrome(metallic) looks in a combo.
