Doesn't seem to stop the best in the country from going to Alabama.
Miami is a traditional program with traditional uniforms that harken back to better days.
Put this team in orange tops / white pants at home and white tops / orange pants on the road—just like they have for decades.
Couldn't agree with Saban more; there is an expectation when the Canes run out the tunnel that this is the BRAND.
Alternate uniforms are perfect for a second-rate program like Central Florida (who did nothing more than rip off the Miami HEAT's "Miami Vice" style look.)
Any kids that DON'T come to Miami because they think the uniforms aren't "cool enough"—hard to believe those are the kids of you'd want at this program.
One more time, kids line up to go to Tuscaloosa to play in those old traditional uniforms—and they couldn't care less about alternate looks.
Win football games. Fans seem to care more about uniform looks than the players do. The novelty wore off years ago.
