For a change of pace, I liked the White on White unis that the team wore against Lafayette. Generally speaking, I don’t care for the all white unis, whether its us or anyone else.
What I’m longing to see is a Brown on Brown uniform. I know schools like Nova use the Blue on Blue and App St. uses the Black on Black. I think the Brown on Brown would be kick-a$$.
While I’m at it, let’s either jettison the Gold Domes or at least add some initials or the word LEHIGH to the helmets. If we’re going to be old school with no emblems, etc, then let’s at least use a Brown helmet with some accent stripe.

What was most interesting to me was the white pants. Since I went to school in the early 90’s at Lehigh, we’ve never had a second pair of pants. (why is another story altogether – were we just too cheap to buy them
I guess the brown on brown could work, in theory….I also found it interesting that we added the tiny green emblem on the pants….I thought for sure we were then going to jettison the brown color completely, and just wear Notre Dame uniforms ! :lol:
March 14, 2009 at 3:19 am #210Well, brown on brown would certainly hide the dirt. Only have to wash them once a year
March 17, 2009 at 1:43 pm #223Personally, I really really like the gold helmets. Wayyyy better than the interlocking LU when I was an undergrad, IMO. To me it gives a real classic look that I’d be really loth to give up permanently.
Having said that, some school have "throwback days" where the team plays in a special one-off uniform that honors a team through history. I don’t know if we have the budget for that, but I think it could be a really neat promotion (and the bookstore could then sell throwback unis). For example, why not a special uniform honoring, say, the 1957 Lambert Cup champions, and wear them vs. CCSU this year?
March 17, 2009 at 4:07 pm #226Wow! Do you also think we could be "Engineers" just for a day? And the bookstore would sell T-Shirts that say "Lehigh Engineers". I think that would bring out a few extra fans that day – seriously.

Really, Chuck, the plain gold is better than something with a logo or name? I can live with the gold, but really think its needs something to identify it as Lehigh.
