dlarry Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 1 hour ago, billiken_roy said: all fan billiken wear should always be billiken blue and all fans should always wear billiken blue to EVERY billiken event. A sea of blue would add to the homecourt advantage and be very intimidating. the billiken athletes for all sports should always wear white uniforms at home and billiken blue uniforms on the road. no alternatives for all of the above. any fan wearing black or gold at a billiken event should be arrested and removed immediately from the event. So are you against people wearing replica home jerseys? They aren't blue but they are clearly Billiken gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheeseman Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I wish we had better pix but I understand that the set up may not have been conducive for that. If the locker rooms are as nice as people say then this is a boon for recruiting and the program. I am glade things keep moving forward with the program.

The Cardinals have lots of different colored jerseys. They even give them out as give a ways - for example, this year they gave out a green one. When you go to the games you see people with all kinds of different colored Cardinals gear. I see your point but apparently if you want everybody to wear the same color then it will have to be give a way game like they do with white and blue shirts. Even all the blues are not identical. At this point I would be happy if people would not wear their Missouri or other schools colors to our games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with ya. It would be cool to see a sea of Blue every game. Shoot at this point I'd be happy if we could Get the entire crowd to participate in the blue out and white put games.

I only agree with Roy that Billiken gear only should be worn to games but black, gray white or blue are fine as long as they are SLU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with what you are saying, but on games where they give out t-shirts the old folks in the expensive seats won't even put them on to get the crowd looking all the same color. I've given up yelling at them about it. When they schedule a blue-out or white-out game, only the ends and upper deck appear color coordinated because the old farts refuse to throw a t-shirt over their plaid button downs. If the bigger donors don't care about an intimidating color scheme on those games, I'm not sure the younger fans should have cool looking black jerseys kept from them in the name of uniformity.

keyser soze Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Back on topic.... The new locker room is bleeping awesome, plastic hangers or not, it's awesome! Does Dayton have one, VCwho, Rhode Island, anybody else in the A10? probably not... Well SLU just raised the bar big time. This ACC, SEC, B10, Pac12, BigXII level facilities.....

Spoon-Balls Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Those are amazing. I don't think we need to build an entirely new development center, though that could happen in the longterm future if Ford gives us a sustained period of success. However I do think certain parts of the Fetz could continue to be upgraded to be more aesthetically on par with those facilities. The locker room is a fantastic start, kudos to all of those involved in making this happen. Will definitely boost our recruiting capacities.
