these posts are getting tired. Royal and Navy sells more merch. Get over it.

Why limit options? Honest question. There's no reason to limit yourself here

Why not neon orange then? We can have an Edm-out. Certainly wouldn’t be limited

A color is not a brand

That is a straw man argument. Nobody here is claiming the whole color palette

This isn't a situation where BYU adds a new color; we've been navy for 20 years. I'm not suggesting we add every color

Royal is much more dynamic, has more character, looks better in the crowd.

BYU has historically had both Navy and Royal uniforms dating backore than 50

Ah yes, the iconic navy blue jerseys of the 60s. Who could forget?

Lots of options can be used with Royal as the primary color

Navy confuses the BYU brand? So you're saying for the past twenty years, people were confused that BYU was wearing navy?

It sounds like you don’t have a time horizon beyond the Navy period

Do you mean the "Bright Royal Blue" from the 70s & 80s or the "New Royal Blue"

Because we aren't Utah State. Have an identity.

If we have to keep Navy, then Navy blue should be used 1 or 2 times tops, the entire season...

I’m sorry but this take is clowning. BYU can have so many alt uniforms without

You must be new to the board. You can check my poll above.

It’s not about alt. unis, everyone is for alternates It’s about 2 shades of blue

That's quite a false dichotomy - strawman fallacy you've set up there.
BYUDM93
9/27/21 8:39pm
Well you should start with the understanding they don't pay for the uniforms.

Again, no issue with alternates. Issue is 2 shades of blue. Makes no sense.

Sounds like an identity crisis. When was the last time UCLA switched their color

Alot. Actually.. Constantly tweeking shades between powder blue all the way to royal

Im sorry but you’re completely wrong. UCLA has one primary blue.

But zephyr's point that UCLA changes their blue every other year is still right
