Eagle logos on the top of the shoulder pads. Eagle beaks on the side of the helmets. Wings on the sleeves, tailfeathers on the butt of the pants. All fans will have their noses panted maroon, just like local alumni from the 1950s. Whiskers and giants ears for the cheerleaders. Simply marvelous. Oh, I'm getting hot flashes.Scoophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11775371005877183144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9512562.post-35576481347341925902011-07-02T22:00:35.276-04:002011-07-02T22:00:35.276-04:00Eagleboston, it's okay for fans to get excited...Eagleboston, it's okay for fans to get excited about uniforms. Personally, I think this is a great direction for the uniform. I don't like gimmicky uniforms with useless logos. <br /><br />Mod34, I think these uniforms can sell BC. Who says logos are necessary to sell a school? If we can get a silhouette along the lines of Texas, I'd be down, but overall I'm happy.<br /><br />Except... I can't believe it, but I agree with JBQ that the red has to be changed.
