how about black on black like the red on red unis we wore against Wisco last year?

 

I miss your old Avatar 49r, did you ever eat breakfast at Cecil's across the street? 

 

 

No.  

 

But I did spend my share of time at the (original) Dundee Dell and the Dundee Theatre.  And the 49'r, naturally.  ;)

I dig the Dundee Theatre.  Saw some good flicks there when I was student teaching in O-town.

What's the all-time record in the black uniforms? Better or worse than the red?

Wow! If somebody comes up with this answer, I would like to know what games, the source etc.

We had a year when D Nee was coach and we had black. uniforms with red and white trim (they were neat...but at the time I felt we were suppose to wear our school colors....but I am not so adamant about it these days.)

I still have a black leather cap that went with the uniforms ( they announced they had some extras from the one hundred caps that were made and they were on sale at the Husker shop...about 20 of them.)

I could not even tell you the year (I believe Tony Farmer was playing) nor could I tell you how many games we wore them...however I would guess it was only 1 or 2.

Please cite your source if you know this answer.

We were pretty dang good at this time...so we could be undefeated!...or winless!

I recall the team wearing them at least twice during the 90-91 season, going 1-1 (at least I think).  I believe we wore them at Missouri and got blown out and wore them in the Big 8 tourney against KU and won.  We may have also worn them on the road against Tulsa a few years later, which was also a loss.  Didn't Scott post a game against Iowa St. on the road when Lue was playing that we wore them?  We won that game, so that would make us at least .500.  Anyone else recall other games where we sported the black unis?

Cary Cochran's freshman year, with Venson Hamilton, Cookie Belcher, Larry Florence, etc. he hit a 4 point play at KU. 1998-1999. They had them on that day and won at Allen Fieldhouse.

 

They wore them in the San Juan Shootout one year (I'm pretty sure) either that year or the following year and (I think) won it versus teams like Miami, Houston (Maybe) and SMU??? I remember Miami was in it but am not certain about the other two.

 

We wore these quite a bit at the end of the Nee years, as late as 1998-1999 and possibly, 1999-2000. I know for sure they never wore them past 1999-2000 if they wore them at all that year.

 

Didn't we have them on in 1998-1999 in the dreaded Rayford Young/Texas Tech game in the Big 12 Tournament, too? The game that cost us the Tourney with the coast to coast with mere moments left?

Cecils was the best greasy breakfast in the city. That place was awesome. 

OK...I'll bite.

How does this place that used to be in Omaha on Dodge St. connect to the topic of Black Jerseys?
