JohnboyND7 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Wow. The lad says something that I agree with. You are welcome. Seriously. Our yellow jerseys are fun and what not....but they don't make us a dime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdub27 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I heard the athletic dept last year ran $750,000 in the red. I think we can do without new helmets and jerseys. I wouldn't put too much stock in that number considering how inexact athletic department budget reporting is across the board. Also would be surprised if that wasn't mainly due to a one time $1 million expense for the new turf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UND-FB-FAN Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Kleinsassers teams and Diggers team also pounded teams and looked good doing it with the black pants at home. Without question. I think if there's one common factor in all of this, it's that we just need green jerseys back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MafiaMan Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Still think the uni matching the pants is a good scheme? Turn on the Saints and watch the Seahawks in their blue dance class leotard outfits. Yuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turn on the Saints and watch the Seahawks in their blue dance class leotard outfits. Yuck. Looks good to me and they are a pretty damn good football team.

MafiaMan Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Looks good to me and they are a pretty damn good football team. The Seahawks are a good team...but the blue jerseys would look infinitely better with their white or grey pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iramurphy Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 If helmets are $250 per and jersey and pants another $100, think we can find 100 people to commit $350 or 200 guys to commit $175 and buy FB team 2nd set helmets and another set of uniforms?

UNDColorado Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Didn't Muss say a while back that green jerseys were in the plan for this year? Maybe the increase on coaches salary ate those funds up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westside Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Didn't Muss say a while back that green jerseys were in the plan for this year? Maybe the increase on coaches salary ate those funds up? I remember hearing that as well... So I went back & looked & Muss said during last year's Signing Day chat there would be new white jerseys for '13 & hopefully new green jerseys for '14. This is his quote from the last year... Chris Mussman: Away uniforms will be the priority in our budget this season. I hope to have green ones the next season.

UND-FB-FAN Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I'd like to think this will get done. Unlike the past two seasons, less helmets and no pants need to be purchased, just jerseys. Let's get that Kelley Green back! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iramurphy Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Ok. I posed the question and a day later we have 10 posters who are in. I figured I should check with someone at UND so I called Mike Mannasau and he said he had been thinking of something similar. He said helmet, jersey, pants was something he had been thinking about. He was going to ask for $500 per uniform then donor would also get replica jersey. We would need to involve them so everyone can deduct it as a donation. Something called GMS foundation will cover the extra $150 for everyone who has already committed so for $350 you will get the benefit of the $500 donation with the matching $150. The GMS foundation will also cover $150 of the $500 for the next 10 people to commit $350 toward this project. After that I think they believe it would take about $500 per player for helmet and uniform. Boise State and Oregon have Nike and we have Siouxsports.com.

geaux_sioux Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 I think an underlying issue is we need a sponsorship so we don't need to fund raise for unis, just helmets instead. That said count me in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, so the proposal is green jerseys and pants along with new helmets, either white or black? Or simply new green jerseys? Obviously the entire new uniform combo would be preferable. Would give us: Pants: Green, White, and Black Jersey: Green, White, and Black Helmet: Green, and Black or White Certainly would be appealing to recruits and fans!

iramurphy Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Didn't we have a silver helmet back in the day? Yes. We had silver helmet with silver pants. I can't say what the colors would be. I would guess that would be up to coaches/players. I would choose silver or metallic grey but don't know. I believe we now have 12 on board. Need at least 88 more. Remember first 20 get matching $150 for $350 pledge. They should go to Mike Manasau of Champions Club UND alumni office. He is in Denver but I will find his email.
