Paint it Black: BYU will roll over Oregon State

[PaloAltoCougar]

It doesnt help sell merchandise when you don't think ahead and have merchandise to sell. As usual, BYU gets a D or an F for their rollout plans.

So all the old people will get first dibs and then the crazy fans will get sloppy seconds if some are available.

I like that they are selling shirts to everyone but why not have sweatshirts, hats, and the whole deal ready to go for this? They would sell a bunch of gear. This is a huge rev and marketing opportunity down the drain. If you are going to do it, do it right. (do it with me)

Someone needs to get Zephyr (of CB) and his hat company on this. Since it's a day game, I'm hoping sweatshirts will be undesirable. My last day game at LES was a four-hour schvitz.

As am I. It's kitschy and lame and disrespectful to everybody that has contributed to the BYU brand before them.

Grr. Very upset.

LaMichael James mentioned on several occasions that the Ducks uniforms played a role in him going to Oregon.

I'm really disappointed that BYU isn't taking your advice and alienating players and potential recruits by not doing this stuff. I'm certainly in favor of anything that is bad for BYU.

But it has traditional stripes!

I still like the anatomy jokes.

Agreed. I would have liked to seen the game thread be something along the lines of "Cougars gnawing on Beavers". Maybe that should be a Foyer thread though.

When I came 2 Provo in 1984 there was very little black of anything. Now there's going to be a black out. I take full credit! #ChatmanEffect

This was the only thing I could find that is black

I don't hate those. I actually kind of like them. A lot.

[TripletDaddy]

Never mind. I'm set!

Someone needs to be fired. BYU has awful merch.

I agree. They look pretty good.

I am really excited to see the LES stands painted 40% black, 20% dark blue, 15% white, 10% royal blue, 10% misc. and the remainder OSU colors. It. will. be. e.p.i.c.
