Remember when Iowa State used to change their uniforms and helmets every 
2-3 years because they couldn't win?  Remember when K State had Silver 
helmets...I mean Purple helmets...I mean white...aaaaa...you know what I 
am talking about... Well Oklahoma State is the new Oregon, sacrificing 
tradition for foolish Clown-like uniforms because they think it will 
appeal to the young urban athlete and will be the decision tipping 
reason for the 4 star athlete to end up in Stillwater.

Are you serious?  How about 7 National titles in Norman?  How about 5 
national titles in Lincoln?   Now that is a decision tipping reason to 
end up in South Bend, or Columbus Ohio...not if you have bright orange 
clown shoes or camouflage helmets.

Nike has made a mockery of several Universities...and I thank God that 
Nebraska isn't one of them.

Remember when we drifted away from our traditional look with the wide, 
nearly pink stripe on the pants and jerseys?  If they moved a bit they 
looked hideous.  The success of the program dictates the athletes you 
recruit...period.

I wonder why Nike owns the Oklahoma State Cowboys...is it maybe because 
they just can't beat that traditional school in Norman...or they get man 
handled by the burnt orange world beaters in Austin.

Thank you for the level heads that prevail in Lincoln Ne...because I 
wouldn't want the rest of the country laughing at me school...

By the way... we are laughing...and shaking our heads and using the 
cutting edge acronym...WTF? (what the flock)
