It looks like the idea is a bit gimmicky for coach Brooks.

In football news, much to the chagrin of Rich Brooks, the focus so far this week seems to be on uniforms rather than a very pivotal SEC matchup. Brooks again made it clear today that the team would not be wearing black uniforms on Saturday and late Tuesday, Mitch Barnhart issued an open letter to UK fans about the “Black Out“. Barnhart insists that black uniforms were never part of the plan when the marketing ploy was created and urged UK fans to still show up in all of the black gear they’ve no doubt stocked up on over the past few years. I think it’s safe to say that moving forward, we will be seeing a “Blue Out” or a “White Out” when UK decides to get all gimmicky.

He is from the old school and is pretty much set in his ways which is just fine as long as we win.. [Wink]

I think it would have been fun for the kids though. The coaches ask so much of the players off and in sseason it would have been nice to give back and let them have a little fun.
