BlueVU A Reprehensible Half-breed

I like Navy. I think it would be a shame to drop it completely.

To me, Navy symbolizes BYU's "Silver Age" of Beck, Harline, Hall, Collie, Unga, etc. It'd be a shame to let that era be forgotten in a sense.

I personally also like the Navy Helmets when matched with white. Whether it be Navy-Navy-White, Navy-White-Navy, or Navy-White-White. But I don't like Navy-Navy-Navy.

More than anything, I just like when our identity is tied to royal. It feels like BYU.

That would make sense. The change to navy was pretty recent. Nike wouldn't want to do a 180 at that point.

It’s always been a great look. Even back in the Crowton days as long as it is matched with all whites.

Those uniforms weren’t great… but they weren’t bad either.

Best we had at the time considering the mess of a helmet and overall color scheme.

I am glad we didn't just go full bore into royal. It's been good to have both.

Navy is useful for signaling which games we don't care about.
