I hate the striped socks, hate knickers, think the black pants look good and feel good. I can only hope Illinois makes the move to dropping kickers all together!

Out of the 8 State Final crews, only 1 crew wore knickers last year. Maybe you just need to get on a different crew.

Trust me, Rut, I was texting them at the start of each final game with a report on what the crews were wearing. These guys are so old school, they would rather wear the old jockey caps and throw red flags...

But they are a solid crew with a total of 8 finals under the belts already. I can't do better!

I was joking about the getting a different crew. I am sure the crew is fine. I just find it funny when guys cannot change. The pants always looked stupid to me and I am glad they opportunity to wear something else took place. I am also glad that when this decision was made by the IHSA to allow us to wear black pants, my crew did not hesitate one bit and decided the change was best.

Peace
