But why do the Tigers not wear gray on the road?

Because Clemson's white pants make our massive balls look even bigger

I vaguely recall when I was a kid...

Sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.

All white is a great combo imo. Grey with orange and purple stripes may look great as well??

I do like some of the teams grey uniforms.

Maybe because it's not a school color?

I'm pretty sure shortly after I graduated there was a push to purge colors not named Orange/Northwest Purple/White from our uniforms.

I think Tommy Bowden went ballistic about having navy-blue piping down the side of our football pants, jersey collars, and it went from there.

Maybe the ladies sports teams do it differently....but I don't watch, so I don't know.

Basketball uni’s used to look blue in the 80’s. Seems it was on the football pants at one time??Thought Bowden was more into bringing back back the purple. Growing up I was not even aware of Clemson wearing purple. Everything was orange/white and what seemed to be a blue color.

It's an old tradition in MLB for away teams to wear gray***
