no one emphasizes wearing "gold" anymore, what happened? if my memory serves me correctly, i believe the emphasis on wearing "gold" started during the dee todd era as our ad which was roughly 20 years ago. it picked up steam over the years but suddenly "disappeared". what happened?
do we no longer promote wearing "gold"?

Keith McCluney left. He was the visionary behind it. It was called Solid Gold and based on a similar fan campaign at Clemson called Solid Orange.
Stuff like that is rarely organic. You need a paid staff member to work behind the scenes to make it possible.

Gonna need the sauce on those jerseys if you can pull a receipt or something, anytime I’ve searched for A&T sports apparel the results are lacking. It’s tough being out of state.

It’s tough being out of state. got mine from a website called "game worn uniforms" but i don't see it anymore. i did see some other websites that sell a&t authentic jerseys though. just google "a&t aggies game worn uniforms"...

Now wish I had there's still some authentic stuff out there but you'd have to do a search to find it. And yes, you're correct, i had to drop over $100 bucks for each of my jerseys but since they're "authentic", it was worth it. one of my gold jerseys still has a small blood stain on it and i luv it! its like a "badge of honor"...
