UTEP Practice Thread 29 August Coach Rhule


I do understand the origin story but I think they became more than practice jerseys in the early 90s when being a Blackshirt was elevated past just being a starter.
It was no more than practice jerseys. What it became was more than that tho. Being a blackshirt means something. Something that callahan and that worthless DC he had DESTROYED. Being a blackshirt was a standard, a way of playing, an attitude.

I would not say they destroyed the Blackshirt tradition. You’re giving them way too much power.

It’s a bond a brotherhood and for many players last beyond their years in college.

They've certainly muddied the waters on what the Blackshirts are. Added a lot of unnecessary drama. Blackshirts are the starting 11. Those 11 could change from week to week, depending on performance, strategy, injury.
