I agree, that's why I said we've either changed up or enhanced it. But even back in the 30's we were switching it up, same thing in the 40's, 50's, 60's, 70's until like you said, around 1976 or so we changed it up til about 94-95. Even through 95-99 our jerseys pretty much looked the same w/ a couple of color enhancements. But as you mentioned, 2000's is when we started the trend of changing up again, kind of like how we did in the early years of Hurricane football.
Here's a reference link. It's pretty cool, and I wouldn't mind seeing some of these classic fits for certain monumental moments.

Pants only came in one color back then
You only came in one color back then.
Not really sure what that means, but ok
Too much time spent arguing with a 7 year old.
Your point may be accurate for brown pants, but I'm fairly certain there were other color pants in the 50s and 60s when we were wearing yellow. The point is that we've worn things that weren't UM colors in the past so I don't see "it's not one of our colors" as a valid argument. What people mean when they say that is we didn't do it in the 80s so it's not allowed, and that's BS.
Personally, I don't love black unis, but if the kids like it whatever. If I were Richt I'd roll out some sweet black uniforms, then tell the team they can only wear them in the ACCCG.
