Powder Blue out Saturday

This weekend to protest Hawkins, people are trying to organize everyone to wear powder blue.  If you have any nuggets gear, that blue is perfect.

If your too young to remember the 80's(me) or don't remember, here's the facebook group's explaination.

 

During the early 1980s the University of Colorado Football Teams were some of the worst in the history of this Top 20 All-Time Winningest Program. During those dreadful years, our team wore POWDER BLUE. That's right: POWDER BLUE.

This year will be our 4th losing season in a row, which hasn't happened since 1979-1984 (6 seasons) when we wore that disgusting powder blue for a few seasons.

Wearing POWDER BLUE to the game this Saturday (Nov. 7) against Texas A&M Aggies will show our University Officials where we think our current regime stands. With the worst of the worst.

The POINT OF THIS is NOT to disrespect the players that bust their ass many days of the week. It is to show that we want a change in the people controlling this team.

Not going to the game is not being a fan. Go to the game supporting the your University's football team, but wear POWDER BLUE to show your frustrations.

The right people will know what it means by us doing this. If enough people do it, it will not go unnoticed, I promise!!

Also some HUGE rumors that a major player has left the team

won’t say anymore just in case if its not true.

If it is, this is the worst year ever.

Who's making the powder blue shirts

with Darrell Scott’s face on them? It’d be a huge seller!

Great idea Zach

theres some serious $$$$$$ that could be made with that.

Someone should print up powder blue "Fire Hawkins" shirts

sell them before the game on Saturday and put a portion of the profits towards the “pay Hawkins to leave” fund.

Are you wearing powder blue

because the program sucks or because so many of our recruits are going to be playing for UCLA?

FYI Target has blank shirts for 7.99 right now

Not totally “powder” blue but close. I went today and they were low on M and L but they said they would be getting more thursday.

Back in my day...

We threw marshmallows with batteries in them. Try to aim for Hawkins’ dome piece, and not your fellow student.
