I'm thinking the strategy of the new uni's is very interesting. I'll tread carefully - but I think they have a distinct urban NYC look. The only other school I can think of that has a look like that, that plays in an urban culture kind of look, is Oregon. Maybe Okie State?
Football can be very traditional and very southern (think traditional southern church, then Alabama or Texas uni's). Our look is veering the other way. Shafer is always talking NE, blue collar city - much like our uni's. Should be interesting to see if they help recruiting with urban city, NJ, NYC, Philly kids.
They are growing on me - esp if they are apart of a marketing move to set ourselves apart from SEC brand southern church style...
