| Rams to Feature Throwback "Tribute" Uniforms in February 6th Wyoming game |
Taking a page from football, the 2010 CSU Rams
basketball team will sport a throwback "tribute" uniform
for the February 6th game against border rival Wyoming.
Although the all-orange uniforms never actually existed in
the past, three elements from the Aggie era are shown as
seen in the promotional photo released February 1.
The letters and numerals match the 1950s uniforms as
seen in the 1955 photo of Boyd Grant above. The "A" on
the right leg of the not-so-short shorts matches the late
1920s Aggie uniforms as seen at the left. Although the
Aggies are not known to have ever worn an all-orange
uniform, the orange takes a page from the days when the
gold looked orange and even further back to the
1893-1909 period when the school's secondary colors
were orange.
This marks the first attempt at an Aggie throwback style
of basketball uniform and shows CSU has embraced their
heritage well. Imagine though if the players would have
been talked into wearing the short, shorts like the days of
old.
